Read full description

The all-in-one app for Australian loyalty points. PointMate is an independent calculator and comparison tool covering 17 Australian loyalty programs and 66+ personal rewards credit cards — including Qantas Frequent Flyer, Velocity Frequent Flyer, KrisFlyer, Amex Membership Rewards, Flybuys, Everyday Rewards, Myer One, David Jones, and rewards programs from every major Australian bank. No affiliate commissions. No issuer partnerships. Just the numbers. PAY Compare your rewards cards on any purchase. PointMate factors in earn rates, surcharges, and the estimated dollar value of points earned to rank cards by estimated net benefit. Add your cards, set merchant surcharge rates, enter an amount, and see ranked results. FLIGHT A Qantas economy flight to Bali might calculate at 1.6 cents per point. The same points on a flight to Japan? Maybe 3.5 cents. Flight calculates the cents-per-point on any Qantas, Velocity or KrisFlyer booking and shows how it compares to PointMate's benchmark range. CARDS With dozens of rewards cards on the market, it's hard to know which ones deliver the highest calculated return. Cards lets you browse, compare, and filter major personal Australian rewards credit cards — from points value based on your typical redemption, to bonus reachability on your monthly spend, to cancel-by dates. VALUE 10,000 Qantas points redeemed as a gift card: about $45. Redeemed on an international economy class flight: up to $440. Value shows the estimated range for any balance across programs, broken down by how you'd actually use them. PORTFOLIO See your total estimated points value across your programs in one place. GOALS Enter your monthly card spend and earn rate to see how many months until you earn enough points for any route and cabin class on both Qantas and Velocity. SAVINGS Log results from Pay and Flight calculations, plus transfer bonus gains. Track your total logged savings over time with milestone progress. BONUSES Check active transfer bonuses between programs, including percentage uplift and days remaining. ALERTS Stay across program changes, devaluations, and upcoming events. Check points expiry rules per program.
