Quick Thoughts
While Trip.com’s rates aren’t quite as high as some we’ve seen on other travel sites recently (such as Viator), they’re still far better in many cases than you’ll get through other shopping portals.
Via Capital One Offers, I’m seeing rates of up to 16X miles depending on the type of booking. You can see the breakdown at the top of this post, although the rates available to you might be different than what I have. We only have miles-earning cards, but if you have cashback-earning cards then you’ll see the return as a cashback percentage instead.
You can find Capital One Offers by logging in to your account and scrolling down to the section labeled ‘Activate shopping offers’ or by clicking the link above. Click on ‘View all offers,’ and you should see Trip.com listed towards the top.
Slightly better rates are available via Capital One Shopping – the shopping portal available to anyone, even if you don’t have any Capital One credit cards. I received an email this morning with the following breakdown:
- Completed Hotel Stay – 16.5% Rewards
- Car Rental – 16.5% Rewards
- Airport Transfer Booking – 11% Rewards
- Tours – 5.5% Rewards
- Cruise – 4% Rewards
- Completed Flight – 3% Rewards
- Completed Activity and Completed Vacation Package – 2% Rewards
- Completed Train – 2% Rewards
- Flight China – $0.50 Rewards
Past experience suggests that even higher rates might be sent out via email on a targeted basis later in the day, so be sure to check your emails if any Trip.com bookings are on the cards for you.
Note that, with Capital One Offers, the rewards you earn come as transferable miles or straight cashback, depending on whether you have miles-earning or cashback-earning cards. With Capital One Shopping, you earn cashback that can only be redeemed for select gift card brands, so that should be taken into account when deciding which of the two portal types works best for you.
