Whether you’re a first-time visitor to the islands or a regular on
Oahu’s North Shore, chances are Hawaii’s on your bucket list of travel
destinations. And who could blame you? One simple way to rack up miles and help
make that next Hawaiian vacation a reality is by using HawaiianMiles Online
Mall, the shopping portal for Hawaiian Airlines.
By earning miles on purchases you’re already making, you’ll be on
your way to a free flight faster than you can say “aloha” – and even quicker when
you pay for those purchases with rewards credit card. Doing so is free and
easy, so why not give it a shot?
What is HawaiianMiles
Online Mall?
HawaiianMiles Online Mall is Hawaiian Airlines’ shopping rewards
program, through which you can accrue miles by shopping at hundreds of participating
online merchants. Registration is free, and you don’t need a Hawaiian
Airlines-branded credit card to qualify. All you need is your HawaiianMiles
membership number and a credit or debit card to get started.
With tons of available retailers at your fingertips — including Macy’s,
Barnes & Noble, and QVC, just to name a few — the HawaiianMiles shopping
portal is a travel hacking technique worth adding to your arsenal.

information and create a password to get started. - Log into HawaiianMiles

How to use
HawaiianMiles Online Mall
Here’s where the fun starts. Once you’re signed up, you can start
using the program immediately to earn miles on all your shopping purchases. To
do so, just visit the HawaiianMiles
Online Mall website and enter your login credentials. You can
search for a particular retailer by category in the left module or by name in
the search bar, after which you’ll be redirected to the store’s website to
complete your purchase while remaining logged into your HawaiianMiles account.
(This is how the program knows where you’ve shopped, so it can credit your
account with the correct number of miles.) You can also find merchants offering
bonus miles, seasonal specials and other exclusive deals to further boost your
earnings.
Once award miles are added to your HawaiianMiles account, they’re
redeemable for travel just like the miles you earn when flying with Hawaiian
Airlines or any of its travel partners.
How many
miles can you earn with HawaiianMiles Online Mall?
Like most shopping rewards programs, your potential earnings with HawaiianMiles
Online Mall varies based on the retailer and how much you spend. A quick review
of the portal shows that most purchases are worth anywhere from 1-6 miles per
dollar spent, though some merchants offer much more. Other businesses offer a
set amount of rewards; for example, as of this writing you can earn up to 500
miles when you purchase a home-based DNA testing kit with 23andMe, or up to
1,000 miles when you sign up for Sling TV
streaming services.
Per the program’s terms and conditions, both participating
retailers and mileage offers can change daily. Once you make a purchase, allow
4-6 weeks for miles to post to your HawaiianMiles account.

latest HawaiianMiles Online Mall deals and discounts. - Download MileFinder
Plugin, an add-on to your web browser that keeps you signed in to your
HawaiianMiles account and allows you to shop and earn miles with HawaiianMiles Online

in the MileFinder. If you do not see an alert, you may need to go back through
the Online Mall in order to earn HawaiianMiles.) - Check the HawaiianMiles Online Mall website every

blocking cookies. - Keep your HawaiianMiles account up-to-date with your debit and
credit card numbers, including any replacements you’ve requested if one was

are properly credited. If your award miles don’t post to your account after 45
days, contact the HawaiianMiles Service Center at 877-426-4537 and state that
your call is in regard to a partner mileage credit. You’ll need to provide the
partner’s name, transaction date, transaction amount and confirmation number
(when applicable).
