Why We Re-Engineered These Calculators for Frequent Travelers

In 2018, before PointsTracker became an automated web application, I created the original PointsTracker Excel workbook to model true redemption break-evens and verify hotel folio billing accuracy.

Generic travel blogs often publish inflated point valuations (like 0.9¢ or 1.0¢) driven by credit card affiliate commissions. Our calculators operate strictly on audited real-world redemption data.

When you evaluate a stay, room taxes (waived on award redemptions), resort and destination fees (which Marriott charges on both cash and points stays, unlike Hyatt or Hilton), and elite plus co-brand credit card earning opportunity costs must all be factored into the equation.

Every calculation runs 100% locally in your browser. Zero personal data collection, zero logins, and zero file storage. Pure mathematical utility for the frequent traveler.
