Octopus and HeyMax are giving away free air miles every time you tap your Octopus card
Tap your Octopus card on daily rides to collect eStamps, Max Miles, and lucky draw entries
The MTR company has partnered with the rewards platform HeyMax to create a new program called Ride to Fly. This initiative allows users to earn air miles every time they use their Octopus card to pay for public transportation. From now until November 13, commuters can earn eStamps by tapping their Octopus card on various modes of transport, such as the MTR, KMB, Citybus, and other local buses and ferries.
For every $10 or more spent on fares, commuters earn one eStamp. To participate, users must link their Octopus card to the Octopus app’s 'Dood Rewards' and register for the campaign. When a commuter collects 10 eStamps, they will receive a redemption code for 100 Max Miles and be entered into a lucky draw. Each account can accumulate up to three redemption codes, which amounts to 300 Max Miles and three entries in the draw.
The Max Miles can be redeemed for flights to over 20 airline and hotel loyalty programs and do not expire. Two grand prize winners will be chosen for 370,000 Max Miles for business class flights to Europe, while six winners will receive 52,000 Max Miles each and 11 will win 28,000 Max Miles each. Winners will be announced on the official Octopus website and social media on November 3 and November 30. To join, download the Octopus app or visit their website to register before using your card.
