My main goal is to accumulate miles, and I only use Upromise when they have vendors that don't give miles. So far I have a whopping $6 in my account.
It's also good for buying gas, Double Miles with my Delta Amex, plus Upromise contribution at Exxon gas stations.
Also, I don't understand why anyone would want to use the Upromise credit card. You get 1% on all your purchases, that go into your account, without earning any interest. Wouldn't it be easier to get a Discover card, get the same 1% and put it into an interest earning account?
I don't have any children now, so I wonder, is Upromise going to be around 20 years from now?

Another evil plot for world domination through the use of points and miles.
