Last 3 times I travelled out of EWR, CLEAR took longer than TSA Pre. Unless it's free, I don't see the point of this, especially since they are always short staffed at EWR.
Sick bro
Clear is not worth it. TSA pre does the same thing but for cheaper plus its in far more locations and for $120 you get global entry which clear does not

I wonder how far into enrollment you have to go to get the confirmation for Uber. There's No Clear near me but I just paid for it with my AmEx Platinum. says "to complete enrollment, please visit your nearest location"
In the end, AmEx will wipe out the $199 charge, just wondering if I will actually get the $75 Uber

I fly often and it really just depends on the lines. Sometimes Clear is significantly faster, sometimes Pre is the same. Delta Digital ID at JFK is the best right now... no line at all. But it's good to have Clear if you're not actually paying for it yourself.
As a lapsed Clear user, the Uber $75 promotion banner didn't show up for me when I logged in. I clicked on the renew and there was a spot to put in a promo code so I tried VDAY25. The following step gave me the fine print on the $75 Uber offer so it looks like that worked.
Thanks for the heads up OP - this was mostly an unused perk for my Plat card, but I'll sign up for a free $75 in Uber credit!
I use both pre check clear and also global entry for close to 5 years now, I cannot stress enough how much better my travel has been since. Also let alone few times I would have missed my flight had my options were not expedited and lines were hours long otherwise due to delayed connection. Using amex to get them all free, totally worth it if you fly almost every month like I do both domestic and and international.
I noticed there's a Clear in Seattle so I will enroll there as I am flying there for work next month. Might as well use the benefit since it's free LOL In the off-chance that my TSA Pre-Check line is too long.

I fully agree with others that most of the time, CLEAR is not worth it. But the times that it is, boy is it clutch. Especially if you have an AMEX credit for it, it's a no-brainer.

If everyone has precheck, no one has precheck.
Not actually true-- even if you're not saving time in line you still have a fundamentally different -and faster- security screening.... shoes, belt, and light jacked all stay on--- laptop doesn't have to come out of the bag, often you don't need to stand in the 360 scanner but just go through a normal metal detector, etc...

Also not actually true.
CLEAR after scanning your ID walks you to the front of the security screening checkpoint-- but doesn't change WHICH checkpoint you go to.... if you don't have precheck you just get to go to the front of the queue for the normal security screening--- if you DO have precheck you get to go to the front of the queue for the precheck security screening.
So they're complementary things.... in SOME airports it'll be quicker to do the CLEAR line to jump in front of the precheck line. In SOME airports it won't be any faster (maybe even slower if people are dumb there and get in the longer line over and over).
If you can only get ONE then for sure get precheck. But if you can get CLEAR for free might as well since once in a while it CAN save you notable time.
When I first got precheck like 8 years ago I thought 'man, I need to enjoy this while I can because it's a no-brainer and eventually everyone will have it.' 8 years later and I'm still walking by long lines of people waiting to go through regular security. Blows my mind but I'm grateful for it.

Same, I usually fly out of EWR and In most instances I've found TSA precheck quicker

If everyone has precheck then the regular lines become faster, and for free.
