American Express is out with a few Amex Offers that can help you earn more Membership Rewards points on Amazon purchases. While you won't earn a ton of points with these offers, they could come in handy for Amazon Prime Day (July 16-17).
All three offers end August 30, 2024.

Bilt just announced its next Rent Day promo and it's a good one! You can transfer Bilt points and get up to 100% bonus based on your Bilt status level. Bilt Gold and Platinum members will also be able to status match to Alaska.
Transfer Bonus By Bilt Status
You can transfer up to 50,000 Bilt Rewards points and receive the bonus. If you transfer more than 50,000 Bilt points during the promo, you will only receive the bonus on 50,000 even if you do multiple transfers. The transfer bonus ends at 2:59am ET on July 2.
Status Match
By transferring 10,000 Bilt points to Alaska Mileage Plan, the following Bilt members can receive Alaska status through December 31, 2024.
The status match promo is open from June 25 to July 1, 2024.
Miles4Migrants is running a promotion with Air Canada in which you can earn 7,500 Aeroplan points for every $100 you donate up to 75,000 points. That means you're paying 1.33 cents per point. Not the best we've seen from Air Canada, but not bad. Plus, you get to support a good cause.
They've set a fundraising goal of $250,000 which I expect they'll hit pretty quickly. So, if you want to support Miles4Migrants and earn some Aeroplan points, I would do this sooner rather than later. The campaign ends December 31, 2024 unless they raise $250,000 before that.
Your Aeroplan points can take up to 8 weeks to post.
You can donate more if you'd like, but you can only earn a max of 75,000 points. Of course, you could get friends and family to donate as well.
Update: The promo is live.
Virgin Atlantic Flying Club will be running a 40% discount on award flights to celebrate its 40th birthday. Here are the details:
Points Wire Note:
Previously, when Virgin Atlantic has run discounted award rates, it's been possible to include a connection on a partner airline from Paris or Amsterdam on Air France or KLM, respectively. While the connection on a partner airline hasn't received the discount, the Virgin Atlantic flight from London to the U.S. has been.
The benefit of adding the connection is to avoid the Air Passenger Duty (APD) fee when starting your journey from the UK. The APD fee on a business class ticket to the U.S. is over $200.

If you buy Iberia gift cards by July 7, 2024, you can get a 10% discount. However, I would only suggest buying if you are about to book.
Terms & Conditions
