Hey awardtrail readers! Southwest is already back with another shopping portal promo after the Black Friday rush! This time, it's super straightforward: Spend a certain amount through the Rapid Rewards shopping portal by December 6th, and you'll snag a cool 1,000 bonus points.
Why should you care? Well, free points are always a good thing, right? Especially with the holidays coming up and everyone doing some online shopping. These points can get you closer to your next free flight on Southwest.
If you're planning on buying anything online anyway, make sure to click through the Rapid Rewards portal first. It's a no-brainer way to rack up extra points on purchases you're already making. Think of it as a little holiday gift from Southwest!
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
