Cyber Monday Sale: Buy A CLEAR Membership On Sale For $119 And Get A $20 Amazon Gift Card!
Use promo code (Exp: 12/2): CYBERMONDAY2019
The Amazon gift card will be emailed within 10 days. Limit of one gift card per household.
If you have an AMEX Green card you also can get a $100 annual refund for CLEAR spending!
Kids under 18 can go with their parents for free without a membership or biometrics required.
PreCheck is great, but CLEAR is amazing.
PreCheck costs $85 for 5 years (it’s included for free with the excellent Global Entry, which costs $100 for 5 years) and allows you to keep your shoes, belt, and jacket on, and your laptop in your bag. You get to go through metal detectors rather than assuming the position for the nude-o-scope. Adults that have PreCheck can also bring their kids with them, even if their kids don’t have PreCheck.
PreCheck and Global Entry are free with cards like the Chase Sapphire Reserve®, Chase United Explorer, Capital One Spark Miles for Business Business, Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card, AMEX Business Platinum Card, AMEX Platinum Card, and more.
Once upon a time, PreCheck lines were always short, but that’s no longer a guarantee. With PreCheck these days you may be able to walk right up to security or you may need to wait 20 minutes.
CLEAR allows you to skip to the front of the line. If you have PreCheck you can skip to the front of the PreCheck line and if you don’t have PreCheck you can skip to the front of the regular line.
You don’t need to take out your ID either, your fingerprint or eye act as your ID.
The dependability that skipping the line gives you is simply amazing. It means I can leave my house 55 minutes before a flight and know that I won’t miss my flight out of CLE. When I’m with my family I’ll leave plenty of time and enjoy the airport lounge, but if I’m solo, the less wasted time in the airport is always a win.
CLEAR also works for sports stadiums. I’ve used it to skip the line at Progressive Field, which is a nice bonus on top of skipping the lines at the airport.
A full list of CLEAR locations can be found here.
In NYC you can use CLEAR at LaGuardia, JFK, Newark, Westchester County, Citi Field, Yankee Stadium, and Madison Square Garden.
Normal pricing for CLEAR is $179/year, but if you link your Delta or United mileage number you will pay $119/year.
If you have a Chase United Explorer card, Chase United Explorer Business Card, Delta Business Gold, Delta Business Platinum, Delta Business Reserve, Delta Consumer Gold, Delta Consumer Platinum, or Delta Consumer Reserve you can pay $109/year.
Delta and United Silver/Gold/Platinum elites also pay $109/year.
Delta Diamond/360 and United 1K/Global Services elites get CLEAR for free!
With the Cyber Monday Offer you’ll pay $119 regardless of status, but you’ll also get a $20 Amazon gift card, which beats any offer except for free 😀
A CLEAR member can add up to 3 adults for just $50 each.
CLEAR isn’t cheap, but if it helps you make a flight that you would otherwise miss due to a long line then it will be worth its weight in gold.
Do you have CLEAR and how has your experience been with it?

If you’re a student, you can get it for $50 a year.
What are some of the other benefits of the Amex green card?
I’d suggest searching for Green Card in the search box on this site 🙂
can i downgrade my authorized user platinum cards 175 a year for 3 of them to the green card and get 100 dollar refund on 3 clear memberships booked on 3 different cards?
No.
sorry for making you crazy,you have to sign up for the green card lechatchilla in order to get clear membership credit ? you cant get it stam by downgradign from a regular card?
plus 1 can someone answer this question btw
I’d assume that if you downgrade the primary card to Green that you should qualify.
I wanted to call up amex downgrade them today , adn charge those au cards the clear membership cost but my new au green cards wont come in the mail till next week?
whos eliana by the way?
Is there any way to combine deals? There is a coupon online for 3 months free[CLRSLCT]. Can I use this with it or is it one or the other?
One or the other I believe.
If you go this route 3 months free instead of Gift Card and/or plan on picking up the Green card in the next 3 months or want to extend past using a discount with/out Green card credit. Nearr the end of the 3 months, give CLEAR a call (855-253-2763) and have them switch your membership to the United/Delta/Student offer. That’s what they advised when I called, and the call was really quick and easy. “(HT to Captain Greg)
Just Signed up for 3-mo trial for me and DW –
PSA make sure you turn off AUTO RENEW under Renewal settings –
This is perfect timing as we are transiting thru multiple Clear locations before renewal – may get the Green card in Jan on the fence –
While we have family in most cities with CLEAR our home hub PDX does not -it would be a no brainer to keep it at renewal if they did.
Do I have to be us citizen to get clear? Same as pre check?
Meaning does student visa work?
I signed up for the basic (for) membership at Yankee Stadium over the summer, it was great for skipping the long security lines. But according the support agent I just chatted with, this deal is not applicable for upgrading existing accounts. 🙁
Open a new account.
Where is the Amazon gift card mentioned after entering the promo code? I don’t see it anywhere. I tried both Dan’s link and the regular website.
It’s not. You get the code after you signup, as per the offer in this post.
@dan can I get $60 off my united status pricing making it an effective 49 before the Amazon gift card or not possible to combine…..
Not possible, as per bold red letters in the post 🙂
Any idea what kind of gift card (physical, egift), and how long it takes to arrive?
