Chase is advertising a new United Club Infinite card on their website alongside their other Chase consumer cards. This new card is offering a big welcome bonus and some new bonus categories that we haven't previously seen on the club card - along with a new $525 annual fee.

Quick Thoughts

This card doesn't look all that compelling to me unless you really need / value United club access. With the huge cuts to flight schedules and most companies banning corporate travel at the moment, I can't see this card being a hot item at the moment unless you're still planning to be spending a lot of money on United travel this year. While the welcome bonus is indeed large, so is the annual fee. I'd sooner consider the new business card if I were in the market for United miles.
