Absolutely not. We have many cardholders that love to redeem their points right away for rewards. Most rewards start at 2,500 points but there are several options that start below 1,000 points making it easy to redeem points right away.

You can save points to build your own travel package or redeem for special offerings promoted through the rewards site such as NBA All Star tickets, Spa Retreat packages, golf getaways, etc. Since your points don’t expire so you can save for years and track your points to build your dream vacation.

While there are many reward options available through the BankMiles program, we understand sometimes you would prefer to redeem points for an item that is not available in our catalog. So we’ve created Pay Me Back to increase the flexibility of how you can redeem your points. Pay Me Back can be used for:

Travel - Purchase any available flight, hotel stay, car rental, cruise or tour package of your choosing over $100.

Retailers - Make any purchase at any retailer over $100 (some exclusions apply to certain categories of transactions).

Within sixty (60) days from the date the transaction posts to your BankMiles card account (normally within 3-5 business days); you can request a Pay Me Back statement credit for the transaction in full online or by contacting the BankMiles Center at 1.877.722.6564. The number of points/reward dollars required varies and is based upon the cost of the purchase. Some exclusions apply to certain categories of transactions.

Any restriction on a specific gift card/certificate/eCertificate will be included in the Program Rules. On occasion gift card merchants require an expiration date. This date will be printed on the front of the gift card/certificate and cannot be extended beyond the expiration date. The full value of the gift card/certificate must be redeemed; retailers do not provide credit or cash back for any unused balance remaining on the gift card/check. Gift cards/certificates are not replaceable if lost, stolen, destroyed, or expired. Gift cards/certificates may not be resold, are not redeemable for cash and are void if sold for cash or other consideration. Gift cards/certificates must be surrendered at redemption. Gift card/certificates are not redeemable and considered void if altered, photocopied, or reproduced. Retailers have the right to restrict usage and participation by retailer is subject to change.
