Quick Thoughts
These miles are in addition to whatever you would normally earn through the link to the store(s) of your choosing. It’s always nice to get a bonus for purchases you already planned to make, so if you have some shopping to do between now and the end of June, log in to see how many bonus miles you can earn. Both my wife and I were targeted with relatively weak bonuses of 400 miles for $100 in purchases:
That’s not enough to get me excited — but if I have a $100 purchase to make, I’ll be sure to do it through AA for an extra 4X on that purchase. I buy enough things online that I imagine I’ll take advantage of this one, but it’s less than I hoped to see.
Head to the AAdvantage eShopping website to see what you are targeted to receive. Let us know in the comments if you got a better offer!

It’s back-to-school shopping season, and for supplies that need to be purchased, airlines are offering bonus miles if you use their shopping portals. We told you last week about United’s offer of up to 3,000 bonus miles, and now American Airlines is offering bonus miles for shopping as well.
Has anyone’s mystery miles posted? Mine is still pending
[…] have seen some other recent shopping portal bonuses — at the moment, American has a mystery bonus where different members receive different offers. This United promotion is better than the bonus […]
500 for $2k for me
400 miles for $100. Given that I have never used that portal, yet, that seems reasonable. I use Chase usually, or don’t shop at all.
Still, that’s only 4% extra if you only spend $100. It’s OK but nothing to get excited over. Now my wife getting a Chase ink card, with 20,000 referral points from me and a future 80,000 bonus points for her, that’s worth getting excited about!
1200 bonus for $300.00. Why does it take forever and a day for the BONUS points to post to your account?
Seems like they’re all x4
Only 400 miles for $100 for me.
Here’s what I got: “We’re working on your Mystery Bonus*. Please try again later.”
Lol…
Haha. Your offer must be Yuge. They’re still working on calculating it.
Spend $500 get 2,000 points for me as well
Only 400 miles for $100 for me. 🙁
$300 for 1200 miles for me
Nice — wish we could trade offers! Guess they know they don’t need to entice me….
Spend $500 for 2k points for me as well.
Spend $500 get 2,000 points for me. Too bad I can’t get AA to payout on gift card purchases.
