For buyers

How buying works

A simple path from finding the right loyalty program to receiving the miles or points you bought.

1

Find award availability

Start with an award-search tool to confirm the exact seat, cabin, and date you want are actually bookable before you buy. Search live availability on any of these:

How does an order work, end to end?

A clear sequence from choosing a loyalty program to verifying delivery, so both sides know what happens next.

1

Find the right program

Search an award tool like PointsYeah, seats.aero or Roame.travel to see which airline programs have the exact seat and date you want.

2

Compare listings

Open that program in the marketplace and compare live rates, available quantities, minimum purchases, and delivery methods.

3

Choose a quantity

Enter the number of miles or points you need and review the itemised listing price and marketplace service fee.

4

Pay securely

Complete checkout with an available payment method. Your purchase and messages remain attached to the order record.

5

Receive delivery

Follow the delivery method shown on the listing and coordinate any required details through the order message thread.

6

Confirm delivery from the order page. If the order cannot be delivered as described, flag the issue for review under the full-refund guarantee.

A note on airline rules

Airline loyalty programs have their own rules and may restrict sales, transfers, or third-party redemptions. MileMarketplacehandles the marketplace order but cannot change a program's terms. Review those rules and the listing's delivery method before buying.

Frequently asked questions

How do you buy airline miles on MileMarketplace?

Find the loyalty program you need, compare its active listings, and choose the quantity that matches your trip. Each listing shows its rate and delivery method. Review the miles price and service fee, pay securely, and follow delivery from your order page.

Is buying airline miles worth it?

It can be when you redeem for premium cabins: business- and first-class awards often cost far fewer cents per mile than the cash fare, so buying miles to book them can be much cheaper than paying cash. For cheap economy fares, paying cash is usually better.

How are purchased miles delivered?

Delivery depends on the method shown on the listing. Some orders use a loyalty-program transfer, while others are fulfilled through an award issued from the seller's account. Review the method before checkout and keep delivery details in the order message thread.

What happens if something is wrong with my booking?

Every order stays on-platform with a timestamped record and an order message thread. If delivery does not match the listing or there is another issue, flag it from the order page and the MileMarketplace team will review it.
