Hi all — I’m Giovanni

I started building Points & Vouchers because every time I earned a voucher I froze at the “what’s actually the best use?” question. I’m not trying to rebuild a live award search engine. My goal is a logic coach: enter your wallet + a route idea and it tells you the value math of each voucher vs points-only, before you go hunting for seats.

What it is now (BETA):
A Wallet to add your VS points and vouchers (status-aware rules).
Suggestions / Planner that runs the math using award charts + typical surcharges (no live seat data yet) to compare:
• 1 vs 2 passengers, one-way/return
• Companion vs Upgrade vouchers
• Peak/standard dates, mixed cabins, etc.
A new Dream Trip (premium preview): put in “LHR → BKK, J, 2 pax, Summer” and it shows total points with/without voucher, your progress to goal, and ideas to bridge the gap.

What I need from you (please try to break it):
• Run edge cases you know well: Red/Silver/Gold companion logic, upgrade flow quirks, positioning flights, one-way vs return anomalies, surcharges oddities.
• Tell me where the math or wording feels off.
• If the output looks right, say why (so I can lock that logic).

Important: It’s award-chart math only right now—no live availability. After you get a promising scenario, please confirm seats on the airline site, Seats.aero/SeatSpy/Reward Flight Finder, etc.

Perk for helpers: I’ve turned on unlimited searches for 2 weeks for testers, plus access to the Dream Trip preview.
If you want in, DM me your email or head to pointsandvouchers.com → Join Beta today .

I’m building this nights/weekends and I’m very much not the expert—you are. If it passes your sniff test, I’ll use that guidance to wire in live flight data next. Thanks for any time you can give

— Giovanni
