FAQ

What is cents-per-point?

Cents-per-point (cpp) is the realized value you got for each point you redeemed. Formula: (cash equivalent ÷ points redeemed) × 100. If you burned 65,000 MR for a $4,800 flight, that's 7.4¢/pt.

What counts as a good cpp?

It depends on the program. Hotel programs like Hilton and IHG typically value at 0.5¢, so anything above 0.7¢ is solid. Transferable currencies (Amex MR, Chase UR) typically value at 1.5-2.5¢ and can hit 3-5¢+ on sweet-spot partner redemptions.

Are you saving my redemptions?

No. This page is browser-only. Nothing is stored, nothing is sent to a server. If you want persistent redemption history with a lifetime cpp dashboard across every program, that's what the PointsCraft iOS app does.
