What this means for you
The promotions have not followed a dependable calendar. Some years had two and others only one. The size changed as well: the lowest entry in this archive is 10%, while the highest is 30%.
Before you transfer points
- First check whether your intended award flight is actually available and what taxes and surcharges are due.
- For a new promotion, read its current terms: the minimum, deadline, eligibility and any cap can differ from earlier campaigns.
- Keep points with PAYBACK until you have a good reason to transfer them. A move to Miles & More cannot be undone.
Sources and scope
PAYBACK and Miles & More do not usually keep expired promotion pages online. Each row therefore links to coverage published during or immediately after that campaign. We cross-checked the dates and bonuses against several historical round-ups. A current condition counts only when PAYBACK or Miles & More publishes it directly.
