Why use Pointify for points travel

Cash + points, side-by-side

Every flight result shows the cash fare AND the points price across every applicable program. No tab-flipping, no spreadsheet — the cents-per-point math happens at glance.

Transfer-partner routing

Tell us your card portfolio. We surface every airline / hotel award you can reach via your Amex MR / Chase UR / Capital One / Citi / Bilt stack — and the transfer ratio, instant-vs-delayed flag, and current promo bonus.

Mistake-fare detection

Pro tier auto-flags fares that look like an airline pricing error — usually 50–80% off the median for the route. We push them via email + push within 60 seconds of detection.

Buy-points concierge

When the carrier’s buy-miles bonus is active, we show the effective cost per mile and let you order through Pointify — same price as the carrier, with optional account-setup if you don’t have one yet.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best website for points travel?

Pointify combines real-time award availability across every major airline mileage program with live cash-price comparison and transfer-partner routing — so you see whether to pay cash or points side-by-side, and whether your Amex MR / Chase UR / Capital One / Bilt stack can actually fund the redemption. Free to use.

How do I find the best use of my points?

On any flight result, Pointify shows the cents-per-point value of every applicable redemption next to the cash fare. Anything above 2.0¢/point is a great use; 1.3–2.0¢ is fair; below 1.3¢ you should pay cash and bank the points. We also surface a "Best Value" pill on the cheapest mile rate so the decision is a single glance.

Can I search hotel awards on Pointify?

Yes — hotel award search covers Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors, World of Hyatt, IHG One Rewards, Wyndham Rewards, and Choice Privileges. Same cents-per-point math as flights, with transfer-partner alerts when the points balance you have can be routed into the chain that has the better rate.

Does Pointify book the flight, or just search?

Both. For cash flights we book directly via Duffel (the same NDC inventory most travel agencies use). For award flights, Pointify shows you the path — what to transfer, where to book, what the catch is — and you ticket on the carrier site. Optional concierge service handles the booking for you on award redemptions for a flat fee.

Is Pointify free?

Free tier covers 5 searches/day, real-time cash + points comparison, and the full sweet-spot library. Pro ($9–12/mo) unlocks unlimited searches, mistake-fare alerts, fare prediction, hidden-city routing, and the price-freeze feature.
