This is one of the few cards (there are only three in total I think) that allow you to earn miles from actually charging your edy by credit card. Usually you only earn miles by using edy. You get 1 mile per 200 yen for charging.

Secondly, by using the edy built into the card, you get the regular 1 mile per 200 yen spent.

Thirdly, you need to subscribe to "ANAマイレージクラブ　モバイルプラス" through your smartphone at a pittance of 324 yen per month. This gives you an additional 2 miles for every 200 yen of Edy spend.

The result is that you end up with 2 miles for every 100 yen you spend using the Edy on the card. I bought an IC card reader for my PC (about 2,000 yen), which allows me to use the Edy to make Internet purchases through places like Amazon and Rakuten as well.
