Our Verdict
Rates actually seem to be quite good and actually doubled (e.g Walmart is offering 8x Avios and best cash rate is 7%, eBay is offering 2x etc etc). As always you should be comparing this to what else is available in terms of portal rates and also the historical highs, I like to use cashbackmonitor (although it’s not showing the doubled rates currently). United also have a shopping portal promotion currently running as well.
