Category: Upgraded Points
Upgraded Points (“UP”) was launched in 2016 by founder Alex Miller, with the mission to show travelers and those hoping to travel, the real value of points and miles.
UP works to achieve this goal by publishing free, highly researched, in-depth and intuitive content that aims to give our readers everything they’re looking for — and more. Our experts spend anywhere between 5-20+ hours researching and crafting a single piece of content.
The team doesn’t just publish, though. With the airline and hotel industry constantly evolving and changing, content becomes outdated very quickly. That’s why we review and update every single article on the site, regularly – some as often as every month or quarter.
We love hearing from readers who were able to take fantastic adventures, or experience great products they wouldn’t have otherwise managed, had it not been for the content we produce and share.
That’s why UP exists and that’s what excites us.
In 2016, UP welcomed over 1MM people to the site and in 2019 surpassed 20MM visitors. The brand continues to grow with increasing press and brand mentions. Traffic stats can be seen here.
