New Rapd Rewards Shopping Mall

Just noticed that Southwest has added an online shopping mall on their website. Hopefully, they will run some promotions soon.

Hopefully it's not run by Cartera

From the format of the web page it appears like it is run by Cartera.

I know everyone hates Cartera, but I did score big (almost a million points) with a promotion they ran on the Priority Club shopping mall this summer. All of my purchases posted to my shopping account with a week. However, only about 10% posted to my Priority Club account. After a month of emails and calls everything posted about a week and a half before the bonus points posted. I was dreading having to fight for the bonus points but they all posted at once (950,000) without having to even send an email. I even got approximately 200,000 more points than I should have, so right now I am loving Cartera.

These shopping malls truly are YMMV.

From the bottom of each shopping mall page: "Online shopping powered by Cartera Commerce."


Direct Website Link is: rapidrewardsshopping.southwest.com

The reward point amounts for shopping are definitely inferior to the Chase Ultimate Rewards Mall. However, it is nice to have a mall that gives you the option of earning Rapid Reward points.

Believe it or not all i did was buy Sam's gift cards. Priority Club Shopping had a promotion offering 2000 bonus points for every $100 in purchases on their site during the summer. I bought 400 something $100 Sam's gift cards and all of the points eventually posted. I have a business that can burn through those cards in a few months time.
