For the 500 bonus miles, you don’t need to spend all $150 on a single purchase to earn the maximum bonus. This is an easy way to earn United MileagePlus miles, plus some bonus points to boot.

How Shopping Portal Bonuses Work

To take advantage of these bonus points and miles, click through a retailer’s website on your shopping portal of choice before making an online purchase. No separate activation is required, and all you have to do is shop in the same browser window where you followed the link for the deal.

Your purchases will automatically be tracked, and you’ll earn bonus miles based on your spending during the promotional period.

Hot Tip:

Qualifying purchases do not include returns, cancellations, shipping and handling, taxes, gift cards, or other cash-equivalent purchases, and certain products are not eligible for bonus points. Any returned or canceled orders will be deducted from your total spend.
