Airlines and hotels regularly sell points and miles with bonuses or discounts. And some promotions can bring the cost down significantly.
Sometimes, buying points or miles for the trip you want to take can even cost less than paying the going cash price.
Whether you’re topping off an account for an award you’ve already found, planning ahead for a trip, or simply waiting for a better offer, it helps to know what’s available now and how it compares with what we’ve seen before.
PointsYeah automatically tracks current offers for buying airline miles and hotel points below, along with each program’s recent promotion history.

Before You Buy Points or Miles
There’s more to a good buy points or miles promotion than the headline bonus or discount.
Each loyalty program sets its own price, so a 100% bonus from one program isn’t necessarily a better deal than a 50% bonus from another. The final purchase price matters more, and the historical tables below can help you see whether the current offer is especially good or something that comes around regularly.
It also helps to know how you plan to use the points or miles before buying them. If you’re a few thousand miles short of an award, buying the difference can be an easy way to get what you need. In other cases, buying enough points for an entire flight or hotel stay can cost less than paying cash.
If you’re buying airline miles for a particular trip, search for the award first. Availability can change quickly, and you don’t want to buy miles only to discover that the flight you wanted is no longer bookable.
PointsYeah searches live award availability across dozens of rewards programs, so you can see what’s available before making a purchase.

Keep in mind that points and miles purchases are generally nonrefundable. Programs may also limit how many points or miles you can purchase, so check the terms of the specific offer before buying.
