Why Points Legend
Not another search box. A private deal desk.
01
Push, not search.
Most award tools wait for you to search. PointsLegend watches in the background and surfaces opportunities you would not have known to look for.
02
Matched to your wallet.
You tell us your home airport and the programs you actually use — Chase, Amex, Capital One, Citi, Bilt. We prioritize the deals your points can realistically book.
03
Trip intent, too.
Random alerts are for inspiration. Trip Watch is for the destination you already care about: our deal scout checks repeatedly and packages the best finds.
How it works
Three steps, then stop refreshing airline sites.
01
Tell us your setup.
Your home airport, cabin preference, and the programs you actually collect points in — Chase, Amex, Capital One, Citi, Bilt, plus airline memberships.
02
We watch for openings.
Our scanners and deal scout look for award seats, transfer bonuses, cash fare anomalies, and better routing paths.
03
You get the brief.
A specific flight. A specific booking path. A specific number of points you already have. Not a newsletter — an actionable brief.

Premium · Trip Watch
Have a destination in mind? We'll hunt for it.
Random deal alerts are great for inspiration. Trip Watch is for the trip you actually want: Paris in spring, Tokyo in business class, Hawaii with two seats, or anywhere your points can stretch further.
Example watch
Denver to Tokyo
01
Name the trip
Tell us the destination, dates, cabin, travelers, and how flexible you can be.
02
We run the watch
Our deal scout checks repeatedly for two weeks across award seats, cash fares, transfer paths, and route alternatives.
03
You get the best finds
When a booking-worthy option appears, we package the route, points, taxes, transfer path, and caveats in plain English.
Trip Watch is not a guarantee that award space will appear. It is a focused monitoring pass that keeps checking so you do not have to.

Questions
The things people ask before signing up.
Not a newsletter. PointsLegend is a private deal desk for your points: we scan airline and credit card program sources, review the best opportunities, and send alerts when something matches your home airport and points setup.
Going is broad airfare discovery. The Points Guy is content. Award search tools make you run searches. PointsLegend combines reviewed deal alerts with Trip Watch, so you can either discover random great deals or ask us to monitor a specific destination.
Trip Watch is a focused two-week monitoring pass for a destination you care about. You tell us where and when you want to go, and our deal scout checks repeatedly for booking-worthy award flights, cash fares, transfer paths, and route alternatives.
No. If you have any of the big US cards (Chase Sapphire, Amex Gold/Platinum, Capital One Venture, Citi Premier, Bilt), you're probably already sitting on enough points for a premium-cabin flight. We alert you when good uses appear.
All major US hubs — JFK, LAX, SFO, ORD, BOS, MIA, DFW, ATL, SEA, plus several more. You set one primary home airport during signup and only get alerts for deals departing from that airport.
Yes. Free covers one home airport, a starter snapshot, and a weekly digest. Premium ($29/mo) adds instant alerts, priority delivery, and one active Trip Watch at a time.
Our scanners run every day. When a deal matches your preferences and passes review, it ships within minutes to Premium members and within 24 hours to free users. Transfer bonuses and error fares can disappear in hours, so speed matters — Premium gets first look.
