Chase Private Clients may be pre-approved for better or different offers, it's worth asking your banker.
__________________________________________________ _____________________
My math says a 50K offer. Where do the extra points come from?
The extra 5000 points come from adding an authorized user after you have been approved for the card. no longer available
Is there a business card?
Yes, and Flyertalk has a thread devoted to the business card: United business card currently offering 30K miles: United MP Business card: public offer now 50K miles!!
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
How long should I wait between canceling a card and then reapplying?
What's the Chase "5/24" policy I keep hearing about?
Now that I've completed the required spend, when will my signup bonus post?
See the wiki and related discussion in Applying for Chase Credit Cards, 2017 onward
Where can I find an online copy of the guide to the card's benefits (such as purchase protection, car rental CDW coverage, etc.)?
Go to https://www.chasebenefits.com/unitedVW4
A few of the best features of the card include priority boarding, a free checked bag, and increased award ticket availability. Priority boarding and the free checked bag for cardholders is included even on the new "basic economy" fares.

HAs anyone compared the FX rates of this card to other Chase cards and to cards from other banks?
Does Chase also impose 1% on this so-called no FX card like it does with Sapphire Preferred?
Also, primary coverage on car rentals but how about when you book online and CDW is always included? Does it provide some kind of secondary coverage in that case?

Did the "search for a flight, get better offer" trick to up my offer from 70k miles to 70K miles + $50 statement credit. Applied and was approved instantly for $32k credit limit. I haven't been a Chase customer in 5+ years since I shut down my Chase bank account and moved to a local credit union. I absolutely despise Chase, but I'm happy to take miles from them.
Thanks for the advice everyone! I should hit the spend threshold in the next month booking business travel to Asia.

I didn't realize Chase rejects apps outright if you're not eligible for the bonus. I thought they would approve with no bonus. Is this new?

You can still use them. I have. However I have had issues using them at clubs where there was "no space for day-pass holders" and in EWR and ORD because of construction. I tried complaining to Chase, even though it's part of their terms, but no dice. Pretty annoying.

I am 8/24 right now, but 4 of the 8 cards are authorized user cards. Do you think I will have a chance to fight for the approval? I am also targeted for the 70k+5K+$50 offer.

I am targeted for Chase United MP card with 70K signup bonus after $3k spend.
I have some travel expenses coming up and can hit spend limit easily,but,Alas, I got CSP last december and I've hit 5/24.
EDIT:
Just read this, and I am guessing since I got CSP bonus in Feb/March, it'd have been a moot point anyway. Wait, is it card specific or just chase specific?

Quick question: I'm an AU on a Chase account that's been targeted for the 70K offer. I know that I'm not eligible to apply myself right now, but I would like to this family member to submit an application. The catch is that he does not have a UA frequent flyer. I'm sure that I know the answer to my question but just for the sake of it: is there any way to apply for the targeted MilagePlus Explorer offer using a MilagePlus account that is in a family member's name? Ie. if this person were to submit an application, could he link the account with mine or my wife's MileagePlus account? What if we were added as AUs? It's worth applying eitherway for the 70K bonus (plus added AU bonus) but the truth is that unless my wife or myself as AUs could personally benefit by earning miles/status towards our respective accounts (or at the very least, being eligible for status and benefits when ticketing in our names) we would be highly unlikely to ever use the card after the initial spend. Perhaps we'd use it for UA ticketing through the Chase portal just until we're eligible ourselves to apply for the card, but I don't anticipate much use beyond that. So my question is first, whether an AU's MP account can be linked directly and second, would travelers benefit from status and benefits (free checked bags, lounge access, etc) when ticketed through the account? Ie. if booking tickets for myself/my wife as AUs with this card, would we still benefit from the features of the card even if traveling independently w/o primary? Thanks!

Nope, primary has to be travelling for companions to get benefit. I once tried booking a flight for my mom, who has the UA card but I paid with mine. They would not give her the benefits, including free bag.

That sucks. I guess I'll ask him to put in an application nonetheless because 70K points + whatever bonus for AU but the card will get dumped before the next renewal.
