How it works

Actually the process here is very straightforward you just have to know that the possibility exists. You subscribe for a magazine, digital or hard copy and usually for one year, enter your Miles&More number and you will receive the amount of miles accordingly. The only thing you absolutely have to remember is to CANCEL the subscription in time as you will only receive the Miles the first year. We recommend you cancel any subscription immediately after the miles are credited, indicating that you want to cancel after the first 12 months.

Where to find active magazine promotions

With Miles&More you have 2 possibilities: Look for promotions on the Miles&More site and on the Payback site(as Payback points can be converted to miles).

Promotions on the Miles&More Homepage

Here you will normally only find one or two active promotions which only make sense if you would read the magazine anyway. If you happen to have a German postal address, a lot more magazines are available to subscribe. It is worth to lookup the page up from time to time to see if there are any new promotions available. Miles&More Magazine Promotions

Promotions on Payback

This option is definitely more interesting, and sometimes it even makes sense to subscribe a magazine without reading it because the ratio of miles you earn is so high. When you are based in Luxembourg you have to note that you can only apply for digital subscriptions unless you happen to have a physical mail address in Germany. A list of active magazine promotions can be found here: Payback Zeitschriften und Magazine. The Deutsche Post Leserservice is also a Partner of Payback and there you have a whole variety of possible subscriptions if you happen to have a German address. Just head to The Payback – Deutsche Post Leserservice Site, and see the available promotions.

Conclusion

Here we showed you that more exotic ways of earning miles exist. If you happen to read one of the available magazines anyway or you find a promotion with a very good €/miles ratio you can easily earn yourself a couple of extra miles with very little effort.
