Get A 3 Month Free CLEAR Membership Trial
Use promo code: JULY3MONTH
If you have an AMEX Green card you also can get a $100 annual refund for CLEAR spending!
CLEAR has also been very generous in handing out 3 month extensions during the pandemic. I’ve received 3 of the 3 month extensions just for the asking!
PreCheck is great, but CLEAR is amazing.
Kids under 18 can go with their parents for free without a membership or biometrics required.
PreCheck costs $85 for 5 years (it’s also 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. 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, Chase United Club Infinite Card, Capital One Spark Miles Business, Capital One Venture, AMEX Business Platinum Card, AMEX Platinum Card, Citi Prestige, Citi Executive AAdvantage, Chase IHG Premier, Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant, Delta Platinum Business AMEX, Delta Reserve Business AMEX, Delta Platinum AMEX, Delta Reserve AMEX, 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, United Quest Card, United Business Card, Chase United Club Infinite Card Card, United Business Club 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!
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?
Can I get this 3 months if my membership expired in 2 weeks ago ? Or only new accounts?
When I try to sign up for the free trial, the website tries to charge me. Am I doing something wrong?
Did you apply the code?
Oops. My mistake. Anyway to use this code with the United discount (going forward)? Or is better to sign up for 3 free months, cancel when the promotion ends, and then sign up through United?
I made the same mistake, that “Apply” button is not easy to see. Now I am trying to reach customer support to fix the issue 🙁
Does it Auto Renew? Do i have to make sure to cancel it before 3 months?
You can change setting here

Is there a way to take advantage of this if you’ve already had CLEAR once before and have a lapsed account/are no longer enrolled?
Can the promo be applied to an existing account? I’ve signed up for one of their promos in the past.
is CLEAR only for skipping the line?
1. how do I add wife for free?
2. its asking my for cc info saying I will be charged June 30, 2021
Its telling me “you’re almost ready to use clear lane”
“To complete your enrollment, fund us at the nearest clear airport or stadium to scan your ID and fingerprints.”
Do I have to go there now or can this be done same day as i fly
It can be done when you fly, just allow a little extra time.
When does this promo end?
Dan are you saying its likely they will renew me 2 more times if i sign up today? so can get free clear membership till approx March 30, 2022?
I just chatted with them and this was my first extension ever and they only gave me TWO months!
I am confused i logged in and i see this message:
Membership Details
PLAN
“Full Membership”
Your full membership subscription, including travel, sports and arenas, will end on 06/15/2021 and is scheduled to not renew.
as clear gets bigger and bigger they clam to already have OVER 61,000,000 INDIVIDUAL VERIFICATIONS the lines at larger airports will also get fuller in peak seasons
I entered the code and it shows $0 for total payment. However, below that it asks for credit card and in fine print below it, it states that the card will be charged $179 on June 30, 2021 (today) -?-
Same. A litte help, anyone?
Not available at terminals A and B at EWR
Take the bus from C 😀
There’s a bus in C that will take you past security in A?
Yes, I’ve taken it many times.
Where do you pick up this bus?

Brilliant dan!
Is this still live? I am getting an error message when I put in the code.
