Thumbs up Miles from translation services

Has anyone earned miles from any translation companies? We translate documents all the time and then fly to different countries on business so I'm kinda surprised it's not a prevalent practice in that industry.

I've started using Translizer because they give me OnePass miles when I buy translations (there's a few other airlines as well, but can't remember which ones). They've been real good too so I like it. Y'all might wanna check 'em out too. They're at www.translizer.com.

Those are some expensive miles. I don't know the value/cost of translating documents, but 1 mile per 3 Euro is steep.

I suppose if you are going to get the translations anyway, why not get a few extra miles for it.

Well, like jcmitchell21 said, it's just a little bonus. I wouldn't buy a translation for the sake of getting miles, but considering that last month I made orders worth $30k+ on translation services... paid for by the company... so yeah, I'll take the miles from that thank you very much.

Not a cent out of my own pocket for those miles.
