What Are Your Points Really Worth?

Most people cash in their credit card points for about 1¢ each. Used for business class, the same points are often worth 3–5× more. Answer 4 quick questions and see what yours could do.

Teddy

Hi, I'm Teddy. I booked a Madrid → Miami business class seat for 66,000 miles + $64.45 in taxes. In my bank's travel portal, those same points would have bought about $660 of travel.

Question 1 of 4

Which points do you have the most of?

Pick the closest match.

Question 2 of 4

Roughly how many do you have?

A rough guess is fine.

Where would you love to fly?

Your dream trip, in business class.

Question 4 of 4

Your next step

These are rough estimates, not a quote. Award prices change by airline, route and date, and saver seats aren't always available. Portal values vary by card. The point is the gap: the same points can be worth a lot more when you know where to use them.
