The coolest thing for a nerd like me is to see an increase in a mileage account and not know where the miles came from. 9 times out of 10, it turns out the mystery miles are from dining out. Over the course of a year, these bonus dining miles add up. So as you keep signing up for credit cards, make sure you remember to register them at Rewards Network. Keep registering those cards, don’t forget to sign up for the bonuses there, and you’ll rack up plenty of mystery miles like me.
A new competitor for Rewards Network is Mogl. Again, it’s really simple. Register your cards and when you eat at restaurants, you’ll get some surprise miles showing up in your account. For me in California, I’m getting an awesome 6 Virgin America miles per dollar spent in Mogl restaurants through February.
