Has anyone here used the Beyond Business program?
From what I can see, and despite what the program website says, you DON'T EARN 1 QReward per dollar spend (my company has got about 13k QRewards on a total spend of about 4500 USD - however the flights flown on other carriers (one AS, one UL on a QR codeshare) didn't earn any QRewards at all.

I can't quite figure out how the earning works, as LAX-DOH on R has earned 2807 QRewards while DOH-LAX on R has earned 5169 QRewards.
(I know the pricing isn't symmetric but it wasn't that the return leg cost much more than the outbound leg)

However, when I try to redeem them against flights, it seems that 100 QRewards gives 1$ off on the ticket price, and it seems to count as cash towards any revenue ticket (and presumably carry all the privileges such as QMiles/QCredits/upgradeability) that a regular revenue ticket gives. So if your company is paying for your ticket it's kind of like getting ~3% cash back, which is quite nice since you still earn regular QRPC benefits on a ticket booked through Beyond Business.
