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.

One of the sweet spots is Go Daddy. They have a great rate normally of 15 Avios per dollar, but it’s excellent now that it’s doubled to 30 Avios with this promo.

I’ve found that domain and hosting renewals track and pay out when clicking through from the Avios portal – it’s not just for new products.

Has anyone successfully logged on to this today? I tried earlier and the landing page could never be found.

I used to occasionally have this problem with their portal, but haven’t encountered it in the last year or so. To get round that issue whenever it happened in the past, I’d log in using incognito mode and it’d work fine.
