Points Wire Note: I've yet to see a United Mile Play promo make it worth going out of your way to book a flight with United. However, if you're booking a United flight anyway, extra points are fun!
Doctor Of Credit: "You need to be a Morgan Stanley customer to be eligible for this card and you can no longer use the access investing work around unfortunately. It’s rare we see increased offers on these co-branded versions of the Platinum card, so it’s worth signing up if you are eligible and can make use of all the various credits."
The Bilt Card won the award for best no-annual-fee card at the TPG Awards last night. To celebrate, they've increased the referral bonus from 2,500 points + 10,000 points for every five referrals to 10,000 points per referral for everyone who applies via your link by November 30, 2023.

One Mile At A Time: "Through Tuesday, November 14, 2023, the Avianca LifeMiles program is offering a bonus on purchased miles. While the publicly available promotion offers up to a 155% bonus, OMAAT readers who register can take advantage of a bonus of up to 160%."
To get the 160% bonus, you must register first then buy at least 21,000 LifeMiles. If you buy less than 21,000 miles, you'll get a 155% bonus.
Points Wire Note: If you have access to points and miles via credit cards, I generally only recommend buying miles in a couple of circumstances.
First, you need to top off your account and don't have points you can transfer to the airline program. Second, you've found award space, the cash rate is steep so buying miles would be a big discount and you'd rather save your points and miles for a time when buying miles at a cheap rate isn't possible.
Frequent Miler: "If you have a Marriott credit card issued by Amex, check your Amex Offers as there’s a targeted offer giving +5 points per dollar at U.S. gas stations. That means you’ll earn 7x-9x depending on which type of card you get the offer on."
Points Wire Note: Marriott Bonvoy points are tough to earn with credit cards. This could be an easy way to give your balance a boost if you have a need for Marriott points.
"Apply for a Business Platinum Card and Business Checking account to earn more rewards when you bundle. Earn up to 220,000 Membership Rewards points after you apply, get approved and complete qualifying activities for Business Platinum and Business Checking."
This offer is available to a select group of current Amex cardholders. Log into your Amex account to see if you have the targeted offer. It should show as a pop-up as soon as you log into your account.
Points Wire Note: It appears to be a No Lifetime Language (NLL) offer so those targeted should be able to get the welcome bonus even if they have previously received the bonus. As always, make sure you read the fine print to double-check.
The elevated United Business Card sign-up bonus is ending November 8, 2023. Currently, you can earn 75,000 United miles when you spend $5,000 in 3 months.
Points Wire Note: United has devalued their program a couple of times in the last few years. That being said, 75,000 miles is still a solid sign-up bonus if you have a use for the miles in the short/medium term.
Frequent Flyer Bonuses: "This special offer prices the same as the best Member Flexible Rate so you definitely should be booking the bonus points rate! 10,000 points at no extra cost means you are receiving ~US$50 or more in points not including the base points you earn, elite status bonus and credit card points."
Promo Code: M11
Dates: Stays must be completed by 11/30/23

Points Wire Note: If you'll be visiting Pittsburgh, this is a great bonus for a one-night stay. The lowest rate I found for one night was $210 including taxes/fees.
Miles Earn And Burn: "Citi has been sending personal and business AA card holders offers for additional bonus miles for making at least one purchase in the next three billing periods:"
500 miles for the first statement
1,000 miles for the second statement
1,500 miles for the third statement
2,000 miles in addition to the above for all three statements
Danny the Deal Guru: "The 50K offer for the Business Checking account is available publicly, and the 150K Business Platinum offer has been around for a while. But if you do both, you get an extra 20K for a total bonus of 220,000 Membership Rewards points."
