One Mile At A Time: "Several airline shopping portals are currently offering promotions for online purchases, should you have any shopping to do. If you’re going to make online purchases anyway, you might as well take advantage of these offers."
Alaska Mileage Plan Shopping: Earn up to 1,500 bonus miles
American AAdvantage eShopping: Earn up to 4,000 bonus miles
Delta SkyMiles Shopping: Earn up to 2,000 bonus miles
Southwest Rapid Rewards Shopping: Earn up to 4,000 bonus miles
United MileagePlus Shopping : Earn up to 5,000 bonus miles
Points Wire Note: If you're buying something anyway, you might as well use a shopping portal to earn some extra points or cash back. I use Cashback Monitor to check the best shopping portal rates.
Wyndham Rewards: For every Wyndham stay of 2+ nights through January 15, 2024, you can earn 3x bonus points up to 30,000 points. You must register for the promo by January 12, 2024 and before you stay to earn bonus points.
Make sure you review the terms and conditions on the promo registration page.
If you link a Visa business card to Visa SavingsEdge, you can also earn 4% cashback in the form of a statement credit.
Frequent Miler: "Plastiq has once again begun accepting American Express cards for payments. I was able to successfully send a tuition payment to my son’s “3K” program last night using an American Express card as both “tuition” and “daycare” are among the many categories that can now be paid with an American Express card."
Points Wire Note: Plastiq allows you to pay vendors that don't accept credit cards. They charge a 2.9% fee to make a credit card payment. It's mostly useful for hitting minimum spends to earn sign-up bonuses.
Doctor Of Credit: "Barclays has increased the sign up bonuses on the Barclays Emirates cards to 50,000 and 60,000 points."
"When these cards launched the bonuses were 30,000 and 50,000 miles respectively so this is a nice increase for the Silver card."
Points Wire Note: These are low priority cards since you can transfer points to Emirates Skywards from all transferable points programs - Amex Membership Rewards, Bilt Rewards, Capital One, Chase Ultimate Rewards, and Citi ThankYou Points.
Frequent Flyer Bonuses: "Earn up to 15,000 Bonus Bonvoy Points for stays at the W Edinburgh... Earn 15,000 points for suites or 5,000 points for standard and premium rooms."
Promo Dates: November 14, 2023 - February 6, 2024

Points Wire Note: If you'll be in Edinburgh in the next few months, it's worth checking rates at the W.
Award Wallet: "In March 2022, Delta and Instacart launched a new partnership offering members SkyMiles on every dollar spent on Instacart purchases. Delta SkyMiles members could also get a complimentary Instacart+ membership. However, less than two years after being launched, the Delta-Instacart partnership is already coming to an end."
"Now, Instacart has eliminated its partnership page and its dedicated linking page for Delta SkyMiles members. However, members who had already linked their accounts can still take advantage of this partnership before the November 10, 2023 end date."
"Be sure to log in to select and lock in your desired offer by registering your card by December 15, 2023. Every qualified purchase from October 1 through December 31, 2023, will apply toward the spend and bonus mile goal you select.*"

Miles To Memories: "Rakuten is currently offering triple cash back at many merchants. But one of the merchants included is Dell, which is quite popular. Rakuten is offering rates of up to 15% or 15X Membership Rewards points for Dell purchases, depending on the category."
Points Wire Note: If you sign up for Rakuten by November 16, 2023, you can receive a $40 bonus if you spend $40 in the first 90 days. If you link your Amex Membership Rewards account, you can turn that $40 into 4,000 Amex points.
