We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Cheap Way to Top-Off Your Alaska Airlines Account!

Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money.

Via Running With Miles, you’ll earn 50 Alaska Airlines miles per $1 for Magazines.com purchases you make through the Alaska Airlines shopping portal.

That works out to 2 cents per mile ($1 spent / 50 miles per $1).  Plus you’ll earn credit card miles, points, or cash back in addition to the 50 Alaska Airlines miles per $1.

Buy Magazines, Earn Alaska Airlines Miles

Link:   Alaska Airlines Magazines.com Promotion

Through June 20, 2017 (tomorrow!), you’ll earn 50 Alaska Airlines miles per $1 you spend at Magazines.com when you shop through the Alaska Airlines shopping portal.

Magazines.com offers magazine subscriptions at a reduced rate for a certain amount of time.  But be careful of auto-renewal, because the rates usually jump up significantly!  So you’ll have to set a calendar reminder to cancel your subscription before your promotional period expires.

Because you can buy as few (or as many!) subscriptions as you like, this is a good deal for folks who only need a few extra Alaska Airlines miles to top-off their account for an award flight.  And you’ll get magazines as well!

Some folks use buy miles promotions to earn miles for award flights in Business or First Class on Alaska Airlines partners, like Cathay Pacific.  It can be an excellent deal if you’d otherwise pay cash for a ticket.

Bottom Line

You’ll earn 50 Alaska Airlines miles per $1 you spend at Magazines.com when you shop through the Alaska Airlines shopping portal.  This deal expires tomorrow, June 20, 2017.

This works out to 2 cents per Alaska Airlines mile.  It’s a good deal if you need a few extra Alaska Airlines miles for an award, because there’s no minimum purchase amount.  And you’ll get magazines on top of it!

Remember, there’s also a targeted offer to buy Alaska Airlines miles at up to a 50% bonus.  But to make the most of that deal, you’ll have to buy at least 50,000 Alaska Airlines miles.
