There are a lot of good credit cards out there for earning bonus points and points, and the United MileagePlus® Explorer Card is no doubt one of them—especially if you’re a frequent United flyer.

But now, for a limited time, the United MileagePlus® Explorer Card is offering its cardholders significantly more than usual. Instead of the previous 30,000 miles, cardholders will now earn 50,000 bonus miles when they spend $2,000 in the first three months.

And add to that the usual benefits of the card, and it’s one to keep an eye on:

Limited time offer: Start with 50,000 bonus miles after you spend $2,000 in the first 3 months

Earn an additional 5,000 miles when you add an authorized user and make a purchase in the first three months

Check your first bag for free—save up to $100 per roundtrip

Enjoy priority boarding privileges and visit the United Club with two one-time-use passes every year

No foreign transaction fees!

Earn double miles on tickets purchased from United, and 1 mile per $1 on all other purchases

Your miles don’t expire as long as you’re a cardmember, with no limit to the number of miles you can earn

$0 intro annual fee for the first year, then $95
