Online Mileage Brokers
How do mileage brokers work?
This is a common question in the airline miles buying and selling business. The basic 5 step process below will you an idea on the definition of an online mileage broker:
- Travelers tell the mileage brokers what airline ticket they would like to buy and for how much.
- Mileage brokers return with a quote for how much the traveler must spend in order to accrue the correct amount of miles.
- If the traveler agrees to the terms, their account must be verified.
- Then the traveler pays the discounted cost of the miles, and the mileage broker sends the newly acquired airline miles into the travelers account.
- The traveler uses his points to acquire an expensive airline ticket from the miles transferred to them via the online mileage broker.
Mileage broker tickets
Another common question in this industry is can a traveler simply buy a first class ticket from a mileage broker? (Instead of going through the miles transfer process). The answer is yes, in a slightly roundabout way. Once a traveler’s account is verified, he or she simply buys the miles from a mileage broker, receives the miles, and can then immediately buy the first class ticket they are seeking. It is also a great way to get cheap first class tickets!
Best miles brokers
There are a number of online mileage brokers operating. Before choosing one, ask four questions of any of them, including us: who pays first and by what method, what is the rate per mile in writing before I transfer anything, who runs the business and how can I reach them, and where can I read reviews you did not write yourself. A broker who cannot answer all four plainly is not one to transact with.
Is selling airline miles allowed?
Two separate questions get blurred together here, so let us separate them.
Legality: there is no United States law that prohibits selling frequent flyer miles. In that sense it is legal.
Program rules: that is a different matter. Delta, United, American, Marriott, Hilton and American Express all prohibit the sale or barter of miles and points in their published program terms. Each reserves the right to close the account, deduct the balance, and void award tickets already issued.
The risk sits with the account holder. It is your contract with the program, so no broker can indemnify you against your own airline, and any broker who tells you otherwise is not being straight with you. What we can do is put the price in writing: we agree a rate with you by email before you commit to anything, and we pay that price by PayPal once your transfer is confirmed. Because you transfer first, you are relying on us to pay, so check who we are before you start.
We have written the full breakdown, with links to each program’s own terms, in our guide to whether you can sell airline miles in 2026. Read it before you decide.
Credit Card Point Consultants
The credit card point industry is quite vast, with tons of new credit card offers and reward programs being offered on a constant basis. As such, many credit card holders have massive amounts of reward points piling up, and are looking to offload them. We offer the option to buy your credit card points at great rates. Fill out a form to get a quote.
Credit Card Point Redemption Process
- The credit card owner informs the broker how many points they have or desire
- The credit card broker verifies the points and gives a quote
- The credit card owner then completes the process, and sells the points in return for cash
