I built ChainPoints because I lived the problem.

I came to the U.S. from India with no credit history, no points, and a long list of places I wanted to see. Flights were expensive. Travel felt like something that happened to other people, people with money I didn’t have.

So I started learning how the points world actually works. Slowly at first, then obsessively. Over a few years, that curiosity turned into a portfolio of premium cards, a half-million-point balance, and the ability to book trips that would have cost me tens of thousands in cash.

But one thing didn’t get easier: every flight I booked meant hours of toggling between airline programs, transfer ratios, and bonus offers, just to figure out the cheapest way to book it with my points. No tool ever just told me the answer.

ChainPoints is that tool. The engine I wish existed when I started, for anyone who’s ever wondered whether the points they earn could actually take them somewhere.

See it working on the four steps from points to plane ticket, or read the London booking that started it.
