EasyBiz members are responsible for communicating and ensuring their employee travelers abide by these terms and conditions.
Earning Points
EasyBiz members receive one point for every dollar spent (not on miles flown) on the base fare portion (base fare portion excludes airport and other government-imposed taxes and fees) of airline ticket purchases made through the EasyBiz website for flights on Alaska Airlines, Horizon Air and participating partner airlines. The amount will be credited to the member's EasyBiz account.
In addition to EasyBiz members receiving points in their company accounts, individuals who are Atmos Rewards members and who are traveling on itineraries booked through EasyBiz continue to receive points in their individual Atmos Rewards accounts based on flown mileage and all other individual Atmos Rewards benefits.
EasyBiz members that purchase industry discount tickets (e.g. id50, id60 and id75 tickets) do not earn points in their EasyBiz Atmos Rewards accounts for money spent on such tickets. Furthermore, individual employees traveling on industry discount tickets purchased through EasyBiz do not earn points in their individual Atmos Rewards accounts for such flights.
