Air Miles Team Up with Samsung

AIR MILES is expanding its partnership with Samsung Canada. You can now earn miles on Samsung mobile technology, including the new Samsung Galaxy S20 5G series. This is an addition to the existing method of earning miles through the Samsung Pay app and on Samsung products through the Air Miles merchandise catalogue

You now earn 1 mile for every $20 spent on mobile devices including smartphones, tablets, wearables and accessories purchased online.

When purchasing with Samsung, watch for these types of promotions:

• Earn up to 2,000 AIR MILES Bonus Miles for pre-ordering Galaxy S20+ 5G or Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (order before March 5, 2020).

Also keep in mind that Samsung teamed up with Air Miles to offer merchandise reward options.

I’m not sure I would go out of my way to purchase a Samsung product just to earn Air Miles, but if you were planning to anyway, be sure to earn some Air Miles with your purchase.

In terms of the reward redemptions, they are not the best miles to cash value, but if you really want one of those Samsung products and you do not want to spend your hard earn cash for it, and have the miles to spear, then maybe. Just remember to look for additional bonus opportunities or reduction is normal miles for the same reward redemption to double dip. I would not recommend redeeming your miles at the standard rate.

All-in-all, it’s always nice to see expansion in partnerships as it does offer more value to customers by having more reward earning options.
