## Summary

MileagePlus Shopping will credit a one-time 500 bonus miles when members spend $150 or more through the mall or in-store offers from September 28 through October 5, 2026.

The $150 is cumulative across qualifying purchases in that window, and both online mall orders and in-store buys on a linked card count. The 500 miles are a single award rather than extra miles on every purchase. Gift cards and cash equivalents do not count. Returns are excluded. Taxes and shipping do not qualify, and certain products are ineligible.

Bonus miles post to the MileagePlus Shopping account and can take up to 10 weeks after the period ends.

Route $150 of planned purchases through the mall or a linked card by October 5 for the 500 miles.
