How to earn 400 Avios in Spain with the Cabify taxi app

If you’re heading to Spain soon it is worth remembering that you can earn Avios with the Cabify taxi and ride-hailing app.

You will get a 400 Avios bonus with your first ride.

Cabify was founded in Spain but has since expanded internationally – you can now also use the app in several countries in Latin America including Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Uruguay

Avios can only be earned in Spain, where it operates in most major cities.

The app can be downloaded from the Apple and Google stores.  I used it a couple of times in Barcelona pre-Covid and the Avios always posted OK.

How many Avios do you earn with Cabify?

You will earn a bonus of 400 Avios for your first trip.

The standard earning rate is:

• 1 Avios for every €1 spent in Spain in any of the following categories: Cabify, Cuanto Antes, Cabify Promo, Cabify Kids, Cabify Executive, Extra Comfort, Cabify Group, Taxi Access and Taxi fixed Price

• 3 Avios for every €1 spent in Spain in any of the following categories: Cabify Corporate, Cabify Eco, Cabify Directivos and Cabify Airport

You will also earn Iberia Club tier points (because Iberia Club is far more advanced than British Airways Club in terms of earning tier points from non-flying activity) at the rate of 1 tier point for every 10 Avios earned. The sign-up bonus does not earn tier points.

You need to link your Iberia Club account in the Cabify app by selecting: My Account / Points. You cannot link to a British Airways Club account – you will need to open an Iberia Club account and later move the Avios across to BA via ‘Combine My Avios’.
