Lightbulb Booking through work portal, does it disqualify from promotion?

Hi all - pretty straightforward question I have not been unable to answer using the search function. I see there is a promotion on BA.com for up to 125k avios for booking a full fare RT to UK/Europe on BA from the US.

I have a trip coming up in Nov from NYC to BLR, with a stopover at LHR. It is a normal full fare business ticket in a qualifying fare bucket, but I do have to book through my employers travel portal - has anyone had any experience in seeing if they would get this bonus despite that? The terms only seem to disqualify "travel agency" bookings if its for a discounted fare, but considering it's more expensive than the flight I'm seeing on BA.com, I dont think its any sort of discount.

Thoughts? Thanks much!

Shouldn't be an issue unless a condition of any corporate net fares is to exclude them from such promotions.

I would check if its going to be an actual published fate or as you said some kind of deal/bulk discounted ticket. While it may be still expensive it could be discount for a fully flex ticket in which case it could be sone kind of discount ticket. Speak to the travel agent and ask them if its a discount/deal ticket or a published fare.
