They'll send the kit once you finish the challenge. Not sure about RPUs/GPUs.

For benefits, they don't send a card. This makes lounge access a grey area. While you should be able to access UA Clubs, I'm not sure if they add you onto the *A database for the challenge period or after it's completed.

I would also wait until June 2nd this week before sending in a match request. United is hyping up for some big announcement, but no clues on what it will be.
