In what seems to be now a more regular occurrence, a portal is paying out big on Apple products! This time around, it is United with 7 miles per dollar on Apple purchases. There are a couple of exclusions but this is still a pretty good deal, especially if you want to snap up some of the new Mac hardware announced a couple of weeks ago.

Don’t forget about the ongoing summer promotion to earn up to 1,500 bonus miles for $350 spend – that would make this deal as high as 11 miles per dollar on Apple!
Here are the exclusions with this portal promo (bolding mine):
- Not eligible on purchases made with coupon or discount codes that are not found on this site.
- Not eligible on gift cards, gift certificates or any other similar cash equivalents.
- The 10.5-inch iPad Pro, new 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and Apple AirPods are not eligible.
- Newly released products may not be eligible. Additional products not eligible are: gift cards, gift wrap, One to One Membership, Bose products, and shipping. Apple sells and ships products to end user customers only; you may not purchase for resale. Eligible only to a customer for up to five (5) units per eligible product, except iPhone, in which case only two (2) units within a thirty-day (30-day) period are eligible
What To Buy?
So, this says for sure it is not eligible on the 10.5 inch iPad Pro, the new 12.9inch iPad Pro (but it is on the previous 12.9″), and the Apple AirPods. But, it also says, like normal, that it may not be eligible for newly released products. I have received payouts in the past on new Macs so I would assume that is just standard language to cover in case Apple decides not to pay on something. Since they refreshed the entire laptop line and iMac line, I would be very surprised if it did not work on those new products.
But, don’t forget to check the refurbished section either! With the new products out, the older products typically get an even further price cut in the refurbished area. While upgrades were made to the 2016 MacBook Pro for the 2017 model, the 2016s are still plenty fast and they get the job done (that is what my computer is).
Do you think this works with the education store? Thanks
Good question – I don’t see anything that would restrict it but maybe someone who has purchased at the education store through a portal can chime in?
