MileagePlus card?

like

A1 Yes. The Sapphire cards can transfer to UA at 1:1 and earn at the same or better rates than United’s own card

I have the UA Explorer card, wonder if I could transfer balance and get Sapphire?

I have almost 1 million points on my AMEX PLATINUM, I know AMEX is closely tied to Delta- but can those points be used equally as well on United? Thanks

like

M1 No. CSR has better earning rates for UA than the Explorer card with more flexibility. CSP also better for the same annual fee

D1 - Can you explain please? Do you mean transferring UR points to Mileageplus?

Is CSR Chase Sapphire? (Just want to be sure) and since I have an Explorer card, will Chase just transfer the balance I have on my Explorer card? I’m not great with credit cards, I’m a lot like Wilma Flintstone who thinks everything you charge is like free, lol...so I control myself by only having 1 revolving credit card, not 2 or 3. I get 10 credit card offers “pre-approved” in the mail everyday- I just toss them all without opening them. Thanks R
