Capital One Offers are easy to forget about. But a batch of limited-time mileage bonuses showing up right now is a good reason to take another look before making a purchase.
Current offers cover flights, hotels, rideshares, activities, and plenty of things that have nothing to do with travel.
Some offer a certain number of miles per dollar spent. Others are more interesting: spend a relatively small amount and earn a fixed number of bonus miles.
British Airways, for example, is offering 4,000 Capital One miles after spending $75. Expedia has 2,000 miles after spending $40, while Klook and Lyft each offer 1,000 miles after spending $20.
Those aren’t huge spending requirements. If a purchase was going to happen anyway, checking Capital One Offers first could mean picking up a few thousand extra miles along the way.
Some Offers Are Better Than Others
Offers vary by account and change regularly. On eligible miles-earning Capital One cards, current bonuses include:
- British Airways: Spend $75, earn 4,000 miles
- Expedia: Spend $40, earn 2,000 miles
- Hotels.com: Spend $30, earn 1,500 miles
- Priceline: Spend $30, earn 1,500 miles
- Lyft: Spend $20, earn 1,000 miles
- Klook: Spend $20, earn 1,000 miles
- Airalo: Spend $20, earn 1,000 miles
Other offers work differently. GetYourGuide is currently offering 25 miles per dollar spent, for example, while Viator has an offer for 6 miles per dollar.
Check Before Hitting Buy
Capital One Offers can be found at CapitalOneOffers.com or by logging in to a Capital One account and looking for the offers section.
Finding an offer isn’t enough on its own. The purchase needs to start by clicking through the offer, and each one has its own terms, including eligible purchases and restrictions.
The practical takeaway isn’t to find something to buy because an offer exists. It’s to check whether there’s an offer for something already being purchased.
A flight, hotel, rideshare, eSIM, or activity could already be sitting on the list. It takes a few seconds to look, and right now some of those few seconds are worth a few thousand miles.
