Rove Miles, a relatively new program in the loyalty space, is kicking off its first Black Friday with a slew of deals to help members earn bonus miles on hotels, everyday purchases and more.
What can you do with Rove miles? One option is to redeem them through Rove’s flight and hotel booking platform, where you can often get a value of 2 cents per mile or more. However, you can get even more value from your miles by transferring them to one of Rove’s 13 airline and hotel partners, including Air France-KLM Flying Blue and Finnair Plus.
How to earn more Rove miles this Black Friday? Let me count the ways.

The hotel bonus mile offer is limited to first hotel bookings, so if you’re new to Rove, now is a good time to open an account. Just join through TPG’s referral link and get 1,000 bonus Rove miles.
If you take advantage of hotel bonus offers, don’t forget that you can also earn Rove miles (and possibly hotel points) when you book.
For example, I can book a two-night ski weekend at the Steamboat Springs Residence Inn by Marriott for $1,807 through Rove. I will earn 18,070 Rove miles (10 miles per dollar), plus 5,000 bonus miles, for a total of over 23,000 Rove miles. On top of that, I can also earn Marriott Bonvoy points and Elite Stay points toward Marriott status.
This was more than enough for me to book a night at the historic Bolderado Hotel.

If you’re not sure where you’ll be on your next trip, it might make sense to buy a gift card that you’ll use later. For example, I love staying at Airbnbs, but what I don’t like is that I usually can’t earn more than 2 points for every dollar I spend on vacation rentals. With Rove’s Black Friday deal, I was able to purchase an Airbnb gift card for the amount I needed for my next ski weekend and earn an impressive 5 points per $1 spent. Or, I can earn 4 points for every $1 spent on a Visa or Mastercard gift card to use on my holiday shopping this year.
bottom line
Ready to rack up some Rove miles? Be sure to grab yours on Friday, November 28th before these deals disappear. If you’re new to Rove, join through this link and get 1,000 bonus miles on top of your Black Friday earnings.
However, keep in mind that many hotels and other travel companies run sales on Black Friday or Travel Tuesday, so it’s a good idea to compare prices between the Rove platform and the company’s website. If you can get significantly lower prices by booking direct, those savings can offset the additional rewards you get through Rove.
