Do You Actually Know How Many Points You Have?

Do you know how many points and miles you actually have? Not just in your favorite airline or hotel program, but across all of your cards, airlines, hotels, and bank accounts. And more importantly, do you know roughly what all those points are worth?In this episode, Travis digs into a problem that even experienced points and miles enthusiasts run into: having plenty of knowledge about the hobby, but not having a clear picture of what you already have. Drawing from four years of Takeoff conversations, the episode explores why spreadsheets become difficult to maintain, how keeping track of points can create unexpected mental load, and why not knowing your balances can affect everything from credit card decisions to booking trips.The conversation also gets into a less obvious problem: what happens when you have hundreds of thousands of points but hesitate to spend them because watching the balance drop feels like a loss.And eventually, the team reveals what they built to help you see your points balances, upcoming annual fees, card recommendations, and past redemptions in one place.Join My10x: Manage your points and miles in one place10xTravel+: Upgrade your travel by becoming a member todayOriginal Episodes From This Episode: Ep. 41- 2024 in Review: Points Wins, Mistakes, and 2025 Goals Ep. 45 - Travel Smarter: How the My10x Redemption Tracker Transforms Points & Miles Management Ep. 50 - Points & Miles Unfiltered: Our Most Controversial Hot Takes Ep. 52 - Are Points and Miles Losing Value?
