United Mileage Plus Visa Card

We are excited that this card has risen the miles that it gives out after the first purchase to 20,000 instead of 15,000 miles. United has recently had bankruptcy problems but they are now seeing the light ahead and they never let us feel like their frequent flyer mile program would suffer if anything happened. This card is a good value but only if you fly United more than the other airlines. 

Earn miles when you pay the IRS

If you are paying taxes why not use your credit card and earn miles? Miles are earned for taxes paid with your Mileage Plus credit card. To receive your miles, you must make your payment through Official Payments by either calling 1-800-2PAY-TAX (1-800-272-9829) or visiting www.officialpayments.com.
