Can any company purchase MileagePlus Reward Miles?
Unfortunately, no. Contractual constraints prohibit MileagePlus from selling miles to companies for incentives within selected industries: travel agents, travel websites, hotels and vacation packages (overnight accommodations), cruise lines, credit cards, banks, financial institutions, telecommunications, ISP providers, car rentals, political organizations, religious organizations, pharmaceutical or alcohol sellers, points to miles transfers, and such other customer categories as MileagePlus, in its sole discretion, may determine from time to time. Should applications from these industries be received, MileagePlus may decline the agreement. In the event that electronic miles or certificates are issued due to misrepresentation, electronic miles or mileage certificates shipped will be confiscated without refund.
