Editorial take: United Business Card
Strong United business card. The free checked bag for two travelers, two club passes, and the under-the-radar $50/twice-per-year hotel credit help cover the $150 AF for any United-leaning small business. The 100k + 2,000 PQP bonus is the sweetener. Post-2025 refresh swapped the old $100/$10k-spend credit for a $125 travel credit unlocked by 5 United flight purchases of $100+.
Common questions
- Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Capital One Savor or United Business Card?
- The United Business Card has the bigger bonus, 100,000 miles + 2,000 PQP, worth roughly $1,500, versus $250 cash back (~$250) on the Capital One Savor.
- Is the Capital One Savor's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the United Business Card?
- The Capital One Savor has no annual fee, so the question is whether the United Business Card's $150 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the United Business Card's benefits to clear $150 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Capital One Savor.
- Can I have both the Capital One Savor and United Business Card?
- Yes, since they're from different issuers (Capital One and Chase) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
- Should I get the Capital One Savor or the United Business Card first?
- Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Capital One Savor: $500 spend in 3 months. United Business Card: $5,000 in 3 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
