November is here and that means every retailer on the internet is going to try and get your business! The great thing for us is that shopping portals want our business too and that means easy miles!
Holiday Shopping Bonuses to Pay Out Up to 14,000 Bonus Miles!
Shopping portals are a simple one-stop place before you do your online shopping. It costs you nothing extra (unless you have a promo code to use – that will void any portal bonus) and it takes just a few seconds and will earn you a bunch of miles for your shopping! Here are the details on these holiday shopping bonuses to earn bonus miles.
Remember, these tiered bonus mile offerings are in addition to whatever shopping portals are offering for each retailer. So, you could earn quite a bit more than these bonuses show! Also, these are not cumulative totals – the maximum amount is the most you can earn with the bonus promo.

Which Shopping Portal Bonus Should You Use?
You can actually use all of them but that would require you spending $4,500 in the next few weeks and that is not something that most people will be doing. However, if you value the most miles possible, I would definitely start with the United Airlines bonus. Because you will also earn miles on the purchases you make (some could be up to 20 miles per dollar), spending $1,500 through the United shopping portal with retailers would net you at least 6,500 United Airline miles. That is over half way to a one-way award in the US which could be very lucrative on some routes!
Happy Shopping!
“(unless you have a promo code to use – that will void any portal bonus)”
Unless found on their website. There are also certain merchant and portal combinations that work even with promo codes not on the website, you just gotta take the risk to find out which ones (maybe not mid-promo, though).
Thanks, George, I had forgotten to add that!
