My options do not seem to earn as many miles per $ as yours, unfortunately.

We have two Chase United cards. One is now strictly a back up. That’s the one the offer is good for. I’d easily hit $15k spend by the end of the year on the other card.

I was offered up to 9k miles for $5k spend on my explorer card (1.8 miles per $), which based on the other offers posted here seems good but then I would have to actually hit that 🙃. Probably is I'd still rather get a guaranteed 3 UR/$ from my CSP on dining, 5 MR/$ on airfare from my Amex Plat, etc etc.
For the record, I generally spend <1k/yr on my explorer card.

Wish they would have a promo that would give PQPs and/or PQFs. That could incentivize me much more.

I have two for the quarter, one sent by Chase and one sent by United. I assume they will stack?
Chase - fixed 6000 miles when I spend $6000
United - sliding scale as above, peaks at 9200 miles for $6000
No direct PQP offer but that gets you halfway to the 500 PQP @ $12k spend.

My wife and I both have Explorer cards, both received the offer. I spend significantly more than she does on the card, so of course my thresholds are higher than hers.
Given that the deadline for registration is Dec 15, and that's retroactive to all spend starting October 1, it seems like the best course of action is to wait for registration as close as possible to Dec 15, see what you've spent to that point, and then make a best guess on End of Year spending and register accordingly.
My spend Miles
$12,000 6,400
$15,250 9,100
$18,500 12,500
$21,750 16,800
$25,000 22,700
Her Spend Miles
$ 8,000 4,500
$10,250 6,600
$12,500 9,300
$14,750 13,200
$17,000 18,800

I got this same offer, too. I’ve already put $24k on my card this year and have focused my spend elsewhere for the rest of the year. I’ll earn nothing from this offer.

I have a lot of spend on my primary one but very little on the other two. The one with the spend didn't get the offer and it's not convenient to bump up the other two.
