What happened
American Airlines is paying 500 AAdvantage miles to referrers for each new eShopping member who spends $75, through October 30, 2026. Each qualifying referred shopper also receives 1,000 bonus miles on top of ordinary portal earn.
AAdvantage members refer new shopping-portal members with a unique link. The referred person must log into the AAdvantage eShopping mall for the first time through that link and complete cumulative qualifying purchases of $75 or more during the bonus period. The window opened October 9, 2026 and ends at 11:59:59 pm ET on October 30. Referrers earn 500 miles for the first qualifying new member and 500 more for each additional one, up to 5,000 miles.
Only the first 10 people who join and spend on a given link count. Later shoppers on that link miss the 1,000-mile new-member bonus. Bonus supplies are limited for each referrer. Send the link to new portal users who can spend $75 by October 30, and stop at 10 referrals so later people are not cut off.
