Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points
Hey everyone,
Just wanted to hear your opinions about offers for Avios cards vs MR cards.
I have a BA AMEX and I don’t get many offers and the 50 or so available are almost exclusively “cash back” as opposed to avios rewarding.
Are Gold/Plat offers more? And are they more cash back focused or MR boosting?
Thank you!
They are the same. It’s generally luck of the draw/an algorithm that sets them. Very few offers give extra points or Avios, a few a year do, nearly all are cash back offers on all card types.

How many offers are you expecting to get?!
As Andrew J says, they are much the same and I reckon once every 6 months on average there may be a points based offer. I just scrolled the list of my PersPlat and BAPP and there is little to differentiate between the two.

I’m not expecting much. I just know from experience that in the US, you get 100+ offers (and they refresh whenever you open the app). I appreciate the replies though!
