Point.Me and American Express US Launch Partnership
American Express US and award-search website point.me have teamed up in a partnership that allows cardholders to easily search for and make award redemptions with their powerful American Express US Membership Rewards points.
As a reminder, point.me is an award searching website that allows members to search for award flights across multiple loyalty programs.
Through this new partnership, eligible American Express US cardholders can enjoy the “point.me for Membership Rewards® points” experience (as it’s officially known) for free, which offers a suite of features to help cardholders find reward flights with 18 Amex US MR transfer partners.
The integrated reward search displays results from all loyalty programs that are accessible through Amex US Membership Rewards.
The feature, which can be accessed on the point.me website, is currently only available for US-issued American Express cards.
It’s worth noting that it’s not possible to initiate American Express US Membership Rewards transfers from the point.me website. However, if you need a helping hand, point.me provides step-by-step instructions to guide you through everything from creating an account in each loyalty program, to setting up the points transfer, to searching for your awards.
