What are the bonus Miles for all first downloads of My Shopping Companion?

During periods dated and/or communicated by visuals on the website and/or My Shopping Companion page and/or communications sent by Flying Blue shop for Miles, you can earn bonus Miles for any first download and use of My Shopping Companion.
Only the first download per member and per account via any browser is counted. Uninstalling My Shopping Companion and then downloading it again will not result in any additional bonus. Outside of the communicated time period, no bonus Miles will be credited to the member's account for any first download.

Please note : This Miles bonus will be credited as ‘pending’ to your Flying Blue shop for Miles account at the time of the download if you are logged onto Flying Blue shop for Miles, otherwise it will be added after the first click made on My Shopping Companion. This bonus will be validated once the first purchase is made via My Shopping Companion. Any bonus Miles validated in excess of 250 Miles are not automatically added to the Miles in your member’s Flying Blue account. Only Miles validated after a purchase of more than 250 Miles for the first transfer will subsequently trigger the transfer to your Flying Blue account.

By downloading My Shopping Companion, you accept the general terms and conditions.
