Orion Travel Technology will provide you with a free 2-piece luggage set and pay your airline round-trip baggage fees in exchange for placing ads on your bags. The travelers would then be carrying around a marketing billboard around the world which is great for marketers, and receiving free luggage and baggage fees covered.
This is one of the first Travel Companies that gives back to its customers by offering them free baggage fees while traveling on commercial Airlines such as Southwest. They have also developed the world’s first mobile traveling billboard luggage trolley with a front and back advertising wrap that is molded into the plastic.
These luggage advertising campaigns are not limited to air travel but also geared to trains, cruise ships, buses, ferries, cars, and trucks. One good thing but could also be a big brother thing is that Orion luggage has a GPS tracking device and onboard alert system that contacts owners via a phone app when your luggage has been opened and tampered with. They will of course be tracking where you are all of the time. (more…)
by PointsGuru | Sep 26, 2015 | 5% Cash Back, Chase Cards, Discover
It’s that time again to register for your cash back bonuses and with the final quarter of 2015 not much has changed with Discover credit cards 5% back. You will still get the 5% bonus on Amazon and you can add Chase Freedom to that list as well. This almost makes us think that Amazon is paying for this because they are surely getting us addicted to the 5% back with them instead of shopping at a local Target or Walmart.
Discover 5% Cash Rebate Categories from October to December 2015 include Amazon, Department Stores, and Clothing Stores. They started the year with Gas and Ground Transportation, then Restaurants and Movies, then featured Amazon, Department Stores, and Home Improvement Stores in the quarter that will end September 30. Read here on how you can score double cash back with Discover IT Cards.

Citibank’s
credit card division announced that you can can now transfer an unlimited number of your ThankYou Points to Virgin America Elevate points. This is great news for those of us in lust with the Virgin America experience. I say lust because they do not fly to many cities as we await them to build up their fleet. This is also great for Citi cardmembers and the ThankYou Points network for being one of the best as it is improving day by day over all the other credit card rewards in means of redemption. Citi cardmembers can now transfer their ThankYou Points to 14 hotel and airline loyalty rewards programs.
Eligible cards for this ThankYou points promotion include the Citi ThankYou Premier and Citi Prestige cards. The 25% bonus runs through October 21, 2015. You must transfer a minimum of 1,000 ThankYou Points. Every 2 ThankYou Points you transfer to Virgin America you will receive 1.25 Elevate points.
Virgin America reward flights start as low as 2,500 points to destinations across the U.S. and Mexico including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Cancun, and later this year, Honolulu, Oahu and Kahului, Maui.

To sweeten the deal, Discover is offering a special cashback promotion to celebrate the addition of Apple Pay. You can get 10% cashback on up to $10,000 of in-store purchases until the end of the year, as long as those transactions were using Apple Pay.
Discover it Miles, Miles and Escape cards will also earn an extra 10 miles per dollar as part of the promotion, again up to a $10,000 limit. Like other cards, using Apple Pay with Discover is seamless and automatic. You also get the same purchase and fraud protection with Discover on Apple Pay as when using a plastic card.
This is an amazing development just in time to buy something if not everything of the new Apple lineup everyone was so impressed with. You could basically get 20% off an Apple TV, new iPhone 6S or 6S Plus, Apple Watch, or the incredible new iPad Pro with a Pencil. If you signed up for a new Discover IT Card you can qualify for a DOUBLE cash back and that puts you at 10% cash back plus 10% bonus plus the normal 1% cash back totalling 21% cash back!
