The Point Calculator website was created in April 0f 2017 due to their being a lack of ways to compare different credit cards side by side to see which is a better option.
When the site was released, it covered 6 loyalty programs and provided U.S. credit card calculators (made of ASCII characters) for:
- Marriott Rewards
- Starwood Preferred Guest
- Hilton Honors
- World of Hyatt
- American Express Membership Rewards
- Delta Air Lines SkyMiles
The site now featured more than 170 rewards programs between the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia as well as over 400 credit card calculators across all of these regions.
This doesn't include the long list of other calculators the site features for calculating point transfers, point value, and more.
Goal
The goal of the site is to help you calculate how many rewards you can earn, the cash value of those rewards, and the transfer of rewards to partners when applicable.
The goal is also to help users comes up with the best credit cards options based on spend, the value of card benefits, and annual fees.
