ClickRewards™ to Welcome AltaVista Rewards Members
AltaVista is discontinuing its rewards program. As of November 15, 2000 Members will no longer be able accumulate Rewards points on AltaVista Shopping. However, we are pleased to offer our Rewards Members the opportunity to transfer their accounts to ClickRewards, one of the Web's premier rewards programs. We will continue to provide our comparison shopping service at AltaVista Shopping.

Until February 28, 2001, you may transfer your point balance to ClickRewards at a special rate of 1,000 AltaVista points to 40 ClickMiles™, which is 20% higher than our previous AltaVista Rewards points to ClickMiles conversion rate! Plus, sign up now, and receive an additional bonus of 50 ClickMiles. After you convert, you can accumulate more ClickMiles through the many earning opportunities within the ClickRewards program. For more details, please visit the ClickRewards conversion page located under Spend - Vacations.

If you prefer to spend your AltaVista Rewards points on items from our own reward catalog, you may redeem them through February 28, 2001.

I'm not surprised. It was a very troubled program.

Did this a couple of days ago and the credit showed up the next day. This program could have been good, but I think the Altavista site was too expansive to maintain a points program effectively.

I imagine most of us were converting the points to Clickmiles anyway, so it just sped up the process and ... with a better return.

Just a reminder to everyone to transfer over any remaining AltaVista rewards they have. I got about 80 Clicks, which is better than nothing for my remaining AV rewards.
