Booking flights for other people is generally allowed. However most airline companies reserve the right to cancel a booking for any reason. In rare case it occurs, it can usually be resolved by providing necessary documents to airline companies. If the problem can't be resolved, payment is NOT provided. However the chance is small -- generally at less than 1% (Frequent booking for other people, or history of selling to other broker, increase the risk dramatically). (Can MilesP2P cover the risk?) Proceed only if you can afford the possibility of losing airline account and miles (although chance is lower than 1% in MilesP2P's history, it did happen few times). Booking hotel stays for other people is similar to booking flights as described above. Few times airline company or hotel may contact you to confirm the booking, simply acknowledge it. Passenger's info is available in Order Information page. For the safety of your miles or hotel rewards, NEVER tell airline company or hotel that you're selling them. Sharing MilesP2P's info to airline company results in forfeit of active and future payments for all your orders. |
Transfer may fail by less than 2% chance for Citi Thankyou Points and Chase Ultimate Rewards, and by less than 20% for AMEX MR. If it happens, points are bounced back to your account. There is no risk of lost of points. There is no occurrence of points lost in MilesP2P history. By less than 1% chance Chase Ultimate Rewards become not able to transfer to miles after a transfer (One occurrence in MilesP2P history). MilesP2P is not responsible for it. Workaround is to transfer most rewards in one transfer. |
Rewards are transferred to your own miles account and let buyer use it, by less than 5% chance airline company may audit account and/or incoming miles.
Proceed only if you can afford the possibility of losing airline account. |

Other Important Info |
Passenger may request change of reservation or cancellation of ticket. You're paid 15% of adjusted miles value (Capped at minimum $50, maximum $150) for successful change of reservation or canceling of ticket. Fee charged by airline company is covered by MilesP2P. Cancellation of ticket must be executed. Once passenger requests cancellation, you're not paid for miles/rewards since they'll be re-deposited into your account upon cancellation. MilesP2P sends multiple emails and text messages to notify miles owner. Lost of miles due to not responding to cancellation request is NOT covered by MilesP2P. | To transfer rewards to buyer, AMEX MR and Chase Ultimate Rewards require addition of authorized user. It is safe to do so since buyer don't know any of your credit card info. While most time addition of authorized user is free, some particular types of credit cards charge a fee. In that case please use different process options for better value. MilesP2P doesn't cover such fee. |
Only check is supported as payment method for this option, and check will be payable to miles account owner only. If you're redeeming for friends or family members, create a profile at milesp2p.com for them as well, so that all information match. If name doesn't match, payment will be delayed to all miles are used and traveler has completed the trip(s). Buyer may change access to the account, and may hold the account for extensively long time. In rare cases buyers don't return the account. |
