Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer programme is one of my favourite Amex transfer partners. The airline offers a world class product, the award chart is generally reasonable (with some superb sweet spots), and there are no surcharges for redemptions on Singapore itself. If you don’t already have an account, now is a good time to open one, as you can bag 500 completely free KrisFlyer Miles for doing so before the end of the month.

All you have to do is sign up here and ensure that the promo code KFBD21 is inserted in the section of the application form headed “KrisFlyer registration promotion”:

If you are feeling particularly kind this morning, please also add the number 8803371488 to the section headed “Referred to KrisFlyer by a friend”, because then I might get some points for referring you too!

Once you are a member, you can then earn more free miles by referring your friends and family. You can check out the full details here, but basically you can earn up to 10,000 miles and there is a very slight chance that you might win an additional 21,000:

Although the person who is referred receives 500 miles just for signing up, the person who refers them only receives their 500 bonus miles if the person they refer completes a “qualifying transaction”. These transactions include:

1. 1. Miles accrued or redeemed on flown flights on Singapore Airlines, SilkAir and Scoot
   2. Miles accrual from partners
   3. Transfer of points from partner programmes to KrisFlyer
   4. Submission of retrospective mileage claims for flown flights
   5. KrisShop accrual transactions
   6. KrisPay accrual transactions and miles conversions

Crediting a Star Alliance flight to KrisFlyer, or sending across a small amount of Amex Membership Rewards Points are probably the easiest options for most people.

Bottom line

If you don’t already have a KrisFlyer account, 500 miles is a decent incentive to sign up now.
