What We Do
Founded in February 2022 by industry experts Adam Morvitz and Tiffany Funk, POINT.ME is the first and only reward flight booking tool that enables travelers to harness the full value of their loyalty programs to book better flights for fewer points. Its algorithm understands how complex credit card points and frequent flyer programs fit together, allowing consumers to get 6-12x the value versus booking via their credit card portal alone at 1¢ a point. point.me’s proprietary algorithm searches over 150 airlines to uncover the very best flight deals, including first and business class travel, along with guided instructions for booking them. POINT.ME works with over 30 loyalty programs, including major credit card rewards, and enables customers to filter search results based on their preferred programs, airlines, routes and balances. What would require research across 100 browser tabs, on average, can now be achieved in one click using POINT.ME, the first-ever search engine for loyalty points instead of cash.

At point.me we take a people-first approach to the business, offering comprehensive health care coverage, competitive salaries, meaningful equity, and the chance to work with brilliant people to solve tough problems for everyday consumers.
