Do you want to know how I fly for FREE (excluding taxes and fees) by making purchases for my Amazon business? I’m going to let you in on my little secret! It’s so easy you will wish you did it sooner!
Here are the steps we will cover -

Redeem for FREE Flights (excluding taxes and fees)

As an Amazon seller, I’m sure you are aware of using reward programs like Rakuten to get cash back when purchasing inventory, shipping supplies, office supplies and other business expenses.
Getting flights for free (excluding taxes and fees) is the same concept!
I use my Chase United card to collect miles on all my business purchases and redeem them for FREE flights! (excluding taxes and fees)
TIP! You can use your Rakuten AND Chase United for double the rewards!
Here is a step by step guide to start earning rewards -
Step 1 - Sign up for a Chase United Credit Card HERE
Step 2 - Apply for the card that WORKS BEST FOR YOU! Be sure to read all the details about APR, Annual Fees, benefits and compare each card before choosing one.
I currently have the United Explorer Mileage Plus card that offers a low annual fee, 2 United Club Passes, free first checked bag, TSA Pre-check credit and so much more!
Spend Money
Once you get your Chase United credit card, you will need to spend the certain amount of money within 3 months to earn your bonus miles.
You can spend this on inventory, shipping supplies, office supplies… whatever you need!
For example - According to the chart above, The United Explorer Card will offer 60,000 bonus miles “after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the first 3 months your account is open”
Be sure to check HERE for the latest bonus mile requirements. The ones shown above may not reflect the current offers.
Get Rewarded
Once you have spent the required amount of money in 3 months, you will be rewarded with your bonus miles! Woot Woot!
This is just the beginning! Be sure to continue to use your Chase United card to collect even more miles with your purchases!
For example - You can see below where I earn one mile for every dollar I spend. Some of my purchases earn 2x’s the miles like those McDonalds purchases below! ( Ya girl was hungry 🍟 )
But wait! There’s more!
Check out BONUS Rewards
Once you have access to your Chase United account check out your Reward Dashboard for all the benefits available to you.
Your dashboard may look different than mine, depending on which card you chose.
You will be pleased with all of the additional benefits you can receive with your card!
Redeem for FREE Flights (excluding taxes and fees)
When you have collected enough miles and are ready to book your flight simply head over to united.com and log in.
When searching for a flight be sure to check the box that says “Book With Miles”
In this example I chose to fly a round trip from San Fransisco to Orlando, non-stop. I am visiting for one week ( probably headed to Disney World ).
For this trip I would redeem 42,400 miles and pay $11.20 for “Taxes & Fees”
And that ladies and gentlemen is how I fly for FREE! (excluding taxes and fees)

Conclusion
As with any credit card, be sure to use it responsibly! This means read everything carefully and understand the terms and agreement. Be sure to pay off your balance each month to avoid credit card interest.
Bon voyage!
