Compare this to the AA Executive cc that gives admirals club access by just showing the card or the Amex platinum that gives you centurion club and delta sky club access by just presenting the cc itself.
Thank you for clarifying your post. But even for the United Club, the CC itself won't get you in. You have to use either a boarding pass or the actual club card. Sure, they could probably look you up and see you are a member and let you in but they could do that whether you show the CC or not if you don't have a BP or the actual club membership card. And the rules are changing soon where you have to have a same day BP to enter.
