I'm sure that they get a great rate (BoA is not paying 2c like we have to) but any time you get AS miles from someone other than AS, the third party is paying AS for those miles. Same with milage plan dining, shopping, partner flights credited to AS, etc, etc.
And I am sure AS gets a cut off of those that don't pay their balance in full each month too.
