When does UA get notified about Chase Explorer card?

I recently applied and got approved for a Chase Explorer card.
My primary interest is increased Saver availability and any-seat Standard availability.
I have not received the card yet...and my UA searches do not show this availability yet either.
When does my UA account begin to reflect that I have a Chase Explorer card?

You need to activate the card first.

If it's a personal card it quite often shows up on my chase.com acct before I actually get it. If it's a business card it usually does not show up. I have to manually add it, after receiving, sometimes with the help of chase CSR. YMMV of course.

Increased in saver availability can be very limited sometimes, and standard award would cost you an arm and a leg. So don't get too excited.

It usually takes about 2 weeks for your MP to linked up with the card.

I've had the cards before, and I found the increased saver availability was very limited indeed...but helpful nonetheless.
Standard awards can come in very helpful on one-way coach redemptions during peak-travel times. I'd rather pay 35K miles than $700.

Thank you for the data point on the link up.

have to disagree with some of the posters.
This morning, my UA searches reflect cardholder status based on the fact that there is now standard availability where there was none last week.

This is 4 days after approval - haven't gotten the card yet

Availability is fluid. Are you able to see those standard awards when logged out?

no, I can't.
I can't tell if there is increased saver availability yet, but standard is definitely there.

Is there any Saver Award availability difference between the Explorer Card and the Club Card?
