How do I get credit for the same purchase at two or more advertising/reward sites? I thought the way they were able to know that you have made a purchase and credit your account with points was because you have to link to the merchant from the rewards site. Thus, there is some kind of refferal code embedded in the clickthrough. Am I wrong. I would be very interested to know how to do this..........
I haven't been able to get points from two or more websites that require that you click through to begin (Greenpoints, alta vista, MileSource, WebMiles all require that you start at THEIr respective webpage) so getting points from two or more of those types of pages are near impossible BUT ClickRewards just requires that you opt in at the end of most of its transactions. GreenPoints requires that you start from their page to get the credit. I simply created a e-mail address of
[email protected] (You can create your own at any free e-mail service). This way when I start at Greenpoints, make a purchase at a site that belongs to GP/CR, then I get the points as well as the miles. When I have had a couple of problems getting the miles posted to my CR account, I called the original company, pointed out my "
[email protected]" e-mail address and assured them that THEY erred in not giving me my clickmiles. Don't forget the dash bar as well as charging it to an affinity card (I use DC or AA Visa). Hope that helps. Erik
