My wife's small business sign up with SkyBonus recently, and has mixed review so far:

- Points seem to post as advertised, with U and Ts not eligible for points, although Ls are OK
- Processing is very slow, takes over 4 weeks for points to be actually processed.
- Website is extremely slow, at times appear to have hang
- Penalty for ATL or SLC based travel, since you only get 40% of the points
- Strange reward valuations: for example, Hawaii and TransAtlantic is 1000 points, while TransPacific is 750. Business class awards are even more strange, seems to be haphazard award pricing.

So far, she is happy in the sense that the points are above and beyond the Skymiles that individuals earn on the tickets.
