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

If you’re heading to Spain, Chile, Brazil or Mexico 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 be earned in Spain, where it operates in most major cities, as well as Brazil, Chile and Mexico.

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 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 the following categories: Cabify Corporate, Cabify Eco, Cabify Directivos and Cabify Airport

You can earn in either The British Airways Club or Iberia Club. It is the same earning rate in both schemes.

If you credit to Iberia, you will also earn Iberia Club tier points at the rate of 1 tier point for every 10 Avios earned. The sign-up bonus does not earn tier points. You do not earn tier points if you credit your rides to BA.

You need to link your British Airways Club or Iberia Club account in the Cabify app by selecting: My Account / Points.

You can find details of the Avios deal on ba.com (the Spanish version) here. It isn’t listed on the UK BA site.
