    Introducing Multi-Region Alerts: A New Way to Find Award Flights

    We’re excited to introduce Multi-Region Alerts, a new PointsYeah feature designed to continuously find award travel opportunities in real time across multiple airports, states, regions, countries, and continents, with flexible travel dates.

    Whether you’re planning a trip to Europe, exploring destinations across Asia, or simply flexible about where you depart from, Multi-Region Alerts help you find more ways to put your points and miles to work.

    Award Alerts Built for Flexible Travel Plans

    With Multi-Region Alerts, you can select entire geographic areas and receive notifications when PointsYeah finds award flights between major airports within your selected locations. You can mix and match from:

    • Major airports and airport groups: JFK, LAX, SFO, NYC, WAS, and more
    • States: California, Florida, New York, or any of the 50 U.S. states
    • Countries: Japan, Italy, Costa Rica, or any other country
    • U.S. regions: Northeast, Midwest, South, Southeast, West, or any of the 24 available regions
    • Continents: Europe, Asia, South America, North America, Africa, and Oceania

    For example, selecting California to Europe allows you to monitor award opportunities between major airports in California and destinations across Europe, all within a single alert.

    You don’t have to decide on a specific departure airport or European city before getting started.

    POINTSYEAH

    Customize Alerts Around Your Travel Preferences

    Start by selecting your departure and destination areas, travel date range, cabin preferences, and maximum miles per passenger.

    Then narrow down your alerts with additional preferences:

    • Travel Theme: Select a travel theme that fits your plans.
    • Bank Programs: Choose your preferred bank rewards programs.
    • Airline Programs: Focus on specific airline loyalty programs.
    • Stops: Set your preferred number of connections.
    • Number of Seats: Specify how many award seats you need.
    • Max Flight Duration: Set a limit on total flight time.
    • Max Taxes: Set the maximum taxes and fees you’re willing to pay.

    For example, if you’re looking for business-class flights to Europe using no more than 70,000 miles per passenger, you can set those preferences and let PointsYeah notify you when matching award opportunities are found.

    POINTSYEAH

    More Ways to Make the Most of Multi-Region Alerts

    One of the biggest benefits of Multi-Region Alerts is the freedom to plan trips around award availability.

    Here are two ways to put that flexibility to work.

    Find Opportunities Through Positioning Flights

    For example, monitoring departures from California could help you find an award opportunity from a major airport elsewhere in the state. A separate positioning flight could make that redemption worth considering.

    Just remember to allow sufficient connection time when arranging separate flights.

    Let Award Availability Inspire Your Next Destination

    Know you want to visit Asia but haven’t decided exactly where?

    Select Asia as your destination and let Multi-Region Alerts help you identify available award opportunities across the continent.

    You might find a flight to Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok, or another city that inspires your next adventure.

    Multi-Region Alerts for Free and Premium Users

    Multi-Region Alerts are available to both Free and PointsYeah Premium members, with additional flexibility for Premium members.

    More on This: What’s Included With PointsYeah Premium?

    Multi-Region Alerts vs. Points Price Alerts

    Both features help you find award availability, but they’re designed for different travel plans.

    Multi-Region Alerts are ideal for travelers with flexible travel plans who want to discover award flights across multiple major airports and/or regions, with a larger date range of up to 30 days for Free users and 90 days for Premium members.

    Points Price Alerts are better suited for travelers with a specific route and travel dates who want to track award price changes or newly available seats. These alerts support a 4-day date window for Free users and an 8-day date window for Premium members.

    Whether you have a specific flight in mind or are flexible about where and when you travel, PointsYeah has an alert option to match your plans.

  • How to Use Daydream Explorer to Find Flights and Hotels With Points and Miles

    How to Use Daydream Explorer to Find Flights and Hotels With Points and Miles

    Sometimes the hardest part of planning a trip isn’t finding award availability. It’s deciding where to go.

    Daydream Explorer helps you discover destinations, award flights, and hotels when your plans are flexible. Instead of searching one route at a time, you can explore the world using an interactive map, browse award opportunities across regions, and compare both flights and hotels in one place.

    Whether you’re looking for your next vacation or simply seeing where your points can take you, here’s how to get started.

    What Is Daydream Explorer?

    Daydream Explorer helps you discover where your points can take you.

    Unlike Live Search, which starts with a specific route, Daydream Explorer lets you begin with a broader idea. Search from an airport, state, country, region, continent, or even “Anywhere,” then explore destinations that match your travel dates and preferences.

    You can switch between Flights and Hotels at any time, making it easy to discover both award flights and places to stay from a single search.

    POINTSYEAH

    Find Award Flights

    Daydream Explorer makes it easy to discover award flights when you’re flexible about where to travel.

    Start by choosing where you’ll depart from. You can search using:

    • Anywhere
    • Continents
    • Regions
    • Countries
    • States
    • Airports

    Next, choose where you’d like to travel using the same flexible location options.

    POINTSYEAH

    Once you’ve entered your travel dates, Daydream Explorer displays matching destinations on both an interactive map and a list view. Select any destination to compare award pricing across supported airline loyalty programs, view available cabins, and explore different redemption options.

    When you’re ready to book, select Yeah, Let’s Go to continue your search with Live Search and view real-time availability.

    POINTSYEAH

    Find Award Hotels

    Switch to the Hotels tab to explore hotels you can book with points.

    Search by city, airport, region, country, landmark, or broader destination, then compare hotels across supported loyalty programs using either the interactive map or list view.

    POINTSYEAH

    Each hotel result includes information such as:

    • Award pricing
    • Cash rates
    • Hotel brand
    • Guest ratings
    • Amenities
    • Property location

    Selecting Yeah, Let’s Go takes you directly to the hotel’s booking page for the dates you’ve selected.

    POINTSYEAH

    Search American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts®

    You can also enable the American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts® filter while searching hotels to view participating Fine Hotels + Resorts® and The Hotel Collection properties.

    To learn more, see How to Search Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts with PointsYeah.

    Use Filters to Narrow Your Results

    Daydream Explorer includes filters that help you focus on destinations that match your travel preferences.

    For award flights, you can filter by:

    • Cabin
    • Airline program
    • Bank transfer partner
    • Number of stops
    • Maximum points
    • Maximum taxes and fees
    • Flight duration
    • Number of seats
    • Weekend travel

    For hotels, available filters include:

    • Hotel loyalty program
    • Hotel brand
    • Maximum points
    • Maximum cash price
    • Distance
    • Amenities
    • Free Night Certificates
    • Suites only

    As you adjust your filters, results update automatically so you can compare destinations without starting your search over.

    Browse by Travel Theme

    Not every trip starts with a destination.

    Daydream Explorer includes Explorer Themes, allowing you to browse destinations based on the type of trip you’d like to take.

    Available themes include options such as:

    • Beach
    • Family
    • City
    • Golf
    • Historical
    • Honeymoon
    • Ski
    • Boutique
    • Eco-Luxury
    • Unique Hotels

    Themes can be combined with your other filters, making it easier to discover destinations that match your travel style.

    POINTSYEAH

    Daydream Explorer vs. Live Search

    Daydream Explorer and Live Search work together, but they’re designed for different stages of trip planning.

    Use Daydream Explorer when you:

    • Haven’t decided where to travel.
    • Want inspiration for your next trip.
    • Want to compare destinations across a region or the world.
    • Prefer exploring possibilities before choosing a specific route.

    Use Live Search when you:

    • Already know where you’re going.
    • Want to search a specific route.
    • Need to confirm real-time award availability before booking.

    Many travelers start with Daydream Explorer to discover destinations, then switch to Live Search when they’re ready to compare real-time award options.

    Free vs. Premium

    Daydream Explorer is available to all PointsYeah members.

    Upgrading to PointsYeah Premium expands the rest of the platform with additional planning tools, including:

    • Longer Live Search windows
    • More active alerts
    • Family and Friends Points Wallet
    • Automatic syncing with select bank and airline programs
    • Additional Premium search features
  • How to Track Rewards and Manage Family Accounts with PointsYeah My Wallet

    How to Track Rewards and Manage Family Accounts with PointsYeah My Wallet

    Keeping track of your airline, hotel, and bank rewards shouldn’t require logging into multiple loyalty accounts.

    PointsYeah’s My Wallet brings your rewards together in one place, making it easy to view balances, store loyalty account numbers, and keep everything organized before your next trip.

    Every PointsYeah account includes access to My Wallet. PointsYeah Premium unlocks Family and Friends Points Wallet, automatic syncing with select bank and airline programs, and additional features for organizing rewards across multiple travelers.

    What Is My Wallet?

    My Wallet is your central hub for managing rewards balances.

    Add your airline, hotel, and bank rewards accounts to view them in one place instead of signing in to each account individually. Depending on the program and your PointsYeah membership, you can either connect your account for automatic syncing or manually enter your balance.

    My Wallet also stores your loyalty account numbers, making them easy to find whenever you’re ready to book.

    POINTSYEAH

    Add Your Loyalty Programs

    Getting started only takes a few minutes.

    Open My Wallet and select Add a Program.

    From there, choose whether you’d like to add a:

    • Bank rewards program
    • Airline loyalty program
    • Hotel loyalty program

    PointsYeah Premium members can connect eligible bank and airline programs for automatic syncing. If syncing isn’t available, or you’re using a free account, you can manually enter your balance and update it whenever you’d like.

    Over time, your wallet becomes a single place to organize all of your travel rewards.

    POINTSYEAH

    Store Your Loyalty Account Numbers

    My Wallet does more than track balances.

    Each program can also store your loyalty account number, making it easy to reference or copy whenever you’re booking a flight or hotel.

    Instead of searching through emails or password managers, your account numbers are available directly from your wallet when you need them.

    Family and Friends Points Wallet

    Planning trips often means managing rewards across more than one traveler.

    With PointsYeah Premium, you can unlock Family and Friends Points Wallet, allowing you to organize rewards for up to five people in one place.

    In addition to your own Head Account, you can add up to four Family Accounts, each with their own airline, hotel, and bank rewards programs.

    Each account can:

    • Store loyalty account numbers.
    • Sync eligible bank and airline programs automatically.
    • Track manually entered balances for unsupported programs.

    At the top of your wallet, you’ll see a combined household rewards balance along with each person’s individual totals, making it easy to understand what rewards are available before planning a trip.

    You can also drag and drop Family Accounts to arrange them in the order that works best for you.

    POINTSYEAH

    Free vs. Premium

    Every PointsYeah account includes My Wallet, allowing you to organize your own loyalty programs in one place.

    Free members can:

    • Add airline, hotel, and bank rewards programs.
    • Store loyalty account numbers.
    • Track balances using manual updates.

    PointsYeah Premium expands My Wallet with:

    • Family and Friends Points Wallet.

    Whether you’re planning a specific trip or simply comparing hotels in a destination, here’s how to get started.

    Before You Search

    A free account unlocks personalized search preferences, hotel alerts, and other features that make planning future trips easier.

    If you’re new to the platform, check out Getting Started with PointsYeah before running your first hotel search.

    Start a Hotel Search

    From the Hotel Search page, enter your:

    • Destination
    • Check-in and check-out dates

    You can also personalize your preferred loyalty programs and other search settings to simplify the search process.

    For participating properties, you’ll see nightly points rates alongside cash prices, making it easier to identify lower-priced redemption dates if your schedule is flexible.

    Not every hotel offers an Award Calendar, but when available, it’s one of the fastest ways to compare award availability over time.

    Things to Know

  • Introducing Family and Friends Points Wallet

    Introducing Family and Friends Points Wallet

    In most families, one person ends up tracking everyone’s points and planning the trips. That usually means bouncing between airline, hotel, and credit card accounts or relying on a spreadsheet that’s never quite up to date.

    Today, we’re launching Family and Friends Points Wallet, a new feature included with PointsYeah Premium that brings your household’s rewards together in one place.

    Instead of asking, “How many points do we have?” before every trip, you’ll already know.

    Everyone’s Points, on One Screen

    Your wallet can include up to five people in total: your own Head Account plus up to four Family Accounts.

    Each account holds that person’s bank, airline, and hotel rewards programs, just like your own. At the top of your wallet, you’ll see a combined household total, with each person’s balances listed underneath. When someone asks whether you have enough points for a trip, the answer is already there without jumping between multiple logins.

    POINTSYEAH

    It’s not just about balances. Each account can also store frequent flyer and hotel loyalty numbers, so they’re always available when you need them. You can copy any account number with a single click instead of digging through emails, screenshots, or text messages.

    You can connect eligible Chase, American Express, and Citi accounts to sync supported rewards automatically, including eligible co-branded airline and hotel credit cards. Other loyalty programs can be added manually, so everything lives together in one wallet.

    Getting Everyone into Your Family and Friends Points Wallet

    Family and Friends Points Wallet is available with PointsYeah Premium. And it couldn’t be easier to use.

    1. Add a program to your own account first. You’ll need at least one program in your own Head Account before you can add anyone else. If your wallet is empty, start there.

    POINTSYEAH

    2. Add a person. Give the account a name, such as “Mom” or “Sarah,” then add their bank, airline, and hotel programs, along with their loyalty account numbers.

    POINTSYEAH

    3. Repeat for up to four Family Accounts. Drag and drop each account to arrange them in whatever order works best for you.

    POINTSYEAH

    Everything is managed from your own wallet. To sync a family member’s supported accounts automatically, you’ll need their login credentials. If you’d rather not connect an account, you can always enter balances manually instead.

    Available Now

    Family and Friends Points Wallet is included with PointsYeah Premium, alongside automatic syncing with supported programs, a larger live search window, multi-airport search, and up to 32 price alerts.

    If you’re new to Premium, you can upgrade today to unlock Family and Friends Points Wallet and all of Premium’s travel planning tools.
