MileWise is a travel related service that helps users track their earned rewards, points and airline miles and apply them to save money each time they travel. The user can log in to their MileWise account, which provides a list of all the programs the user is participating in and their balances. The service currently supports more than 300 rewards programs. MileWise allows the user to search for flights to see how much the journey will cost in cash and miles or points. The application provides a percentage score that allows the user to see which option is truly the cheapest. A 100% indicates the cheapest option. This helps the user to decide if it is more cost effective to use up their accumulated points or to simply pay for cash and save the points for another trip. MileWise also alerts users to any airline fees that may be required, even when using up points or miles.

MileWise was founded by Vinay Pulim, Nicholas Meyer and Sanjay Kothari. The application was intended to help users maximize the way they use their airline points, miles and rewards. A number of features were included after beta, such as expanded international fare inventory, multiple account monitoring for the same reward programs and expiration alerts. Just like many other applications, MileWise experienced its share of bugs and issues during beta, but has since ironed those out and offers an excellent service for anyone who travels frequently.

MileWise provides a great deal of insight into travel rewards programs that other sites often overlook. Rather than simply showing the user what they can spend their miles on, or limiting the search to dollar amount airfare, MileWise reveals both. The user can actually compare the difference between using up their saved air miles or points to simply purchasing airline tickets with cash so they get the best value.

The MileWise website welcomes newcomers with a simple, stylish owl that peers out of the site’s logo. The light blue color scheme gives the site a very friendly feel while stylish fonts and hints of orange adds life to the design. The website is clutter free and presents the user with everything they need in a concise, easy to digest manner. New users can quickly add accounts and begin tracking balances each time they log in to MileWise.

A new user can create a MileWise account by filling out the form found along the bottom of the homepage. The form is kept very short, and requires only an email address and password. After providing the information, the user can click the orange and white “Sign Up” button to the right of the form to continue. The user is automatically logged in to their new account and can begin adding their travel program accounts.

All users can create a MileWise account for nothing. There are no subscription fees or other charges for using the service. The user can even book airline tickets through MileWise for free. The website does not add any additional fees or extra charges for its service. The user can see recent airfare rates and take advantage of low prices without adding to the cost.

MileWise.com is a great tool for anyone who manages multiple travel rewards program accounts. The application is very simple to use and helps users see their balances and determine which travel deals are the most economical.
