I had to smile when he said that 1 point per dollar is a loss.
Over here in Germany most credit cards don't even give you 1 point per dollar. How are we supposed to survive in this game... :(
That's the case in most countries. I'm from India and the options available for points are very very limited. We only have the Amex set of cards and the platinum costs a 1000USD a year and only gives a point per dollar on average, not a good deal imo
Same in the UK,
Rewards cards in the UK pretty much suck.
There is a way to get the best value from your points, miles, or even hotel rewards. C•R gives you the best dollar value more than the issuer does, the value is 2-3x of the dollar value you normally get. Why not trade your points, miles, or hotel rewards today for a better dollar value than most portals offer you

Yes! Finally, very well produced and FULL of amazing information. I love this! congrats! These videos probably take quite a while and so much effort to make. Super proud of TPG team on a new adventure!
Thank you!!
We cannot wait for this! Our whole vlog is inspired by him and his TPG team.
Let’s collab!
@@BrianKelly Yes, please! What can we do?!
Meet us in Tokyo (or wherever, really) and chat about inspiring families to travel? That having young kids doesn't make travel impossible?
love the countdown music session!! LET's GO LIVEEE!
So excited to see this!! Thank you for sharing!! Can't wait to see what's next!!
Awesome production and content! Became a subscriber immediately. Can’t wait for the fire you’re gonna be dropping on this channel.
Excited! I really admire Brian Kelly
The visual nature of this series is going to be far more appealing than continuously reading articles. Thanks for introducing this look to points and miles to maximize travel.
Thanks- I struggle with how much technical stuff to show on camera vs driving people to read blog posts. I think we will find a right balance, but keep up the feedback please
very enjoyable! Loved watching this
Congratulations. Can’t wait to see more from you.
Excited for this Brian!
I live to travel! your videos are so inspiring - taking me to the most amazing places !!

I recently came across your channel, the different article/blogs by TPG, and I would love to be able to better learn about how to get the most out of cards and points. Not sure if you ever have done this, but it would be amazing to tour TPG facility, live in the life (or a trip) with The Points Guy, and (at very least) have the ability to meet, chat, and learn from all you have accomplished. Your energy and passion is purely inspiring and I know that I, as a lover of travel, love the videos you do and the passion for flying and travel!!! Thanks for all the tips you and your team give already - I look forward to the rest!

Everyone here at RUclips is stoked for this launch! We're rooting for you.
Thank you for your support!!
Great intro video. I get the vibe that TPG saw all of the people that RUclips about credit card points/miles and effectively just said "Hold my beer". He just put everyone on notice that he is on ANOTHER LEVEL. Just mind blowing :-)
Thank you!! I think there’s a lot of room for many bloggers and vloggers, but I want to do this my style for sure ✈️✈️

My friend told us the other day about your blog. I'm interested to see all your videos and learn about how to use/get points.
You've come to the right place! Get started here: the.pointsg.uy/xfjNuHp
As promised, here for your 1st video and here to stay!
Thank you, this is super useful but I still struggle to understand all the subtlety of this points-game. Would love more videos going in depth on the subject and especially regarding the AMEX platinum card !
Congratulations on your big launch, Brian! Love the points guy and all that you do!
Thank you!!

Been watching Ask Sebby and TheCreditShifu, and now the master himself.
So excited for this! :)
Love this!!
Big fan and super excited for the vlog. College senior with 9 credit cards (all no annual fee, 765 credit score). I’ve been able to fund an unpaid internship with my points and soon will take my parents and I to Amsterdam with only points!
Love this story- email tips@thepointsguy.com and if we use it we will give you gift cards
If only we had those types of multipliers on spending, gas, dining etc in the UK :'(
I know- sorry to make you jealous! But follow thepointsguy.co.uk - you can definitely maximize points in the UK
Looking great as always , Brian ! Haha I am becoming addicted to watching your videos !!! :-P

Congratulations!! Good job.
I’m a huge fun of Medellin, I’ve been visiting for work for years and I’m always happy to go back.
Such a cool city- I mean the food is 👌🏼
@@BrianKelly I'm taking my wife on my next trip to Medellin and doing some sightseeing so great tips. Of course using points for her plane tickets thanks to you.
Your story on how you got started and why you do it is authentic. +1sub

Awesome!!!
love the build up !
This is exciting!!!
WoW thanks for the info.
Could you do a video for the 80-100% work traveler. How to maximize perks/credit cards/etc for a traveler that doesn't need every perk to come from a credit card. Genuinely curious.
Currently diamond w Hilton (avg 70 nights/year), platinum w Marriott (avg 60 nights/year), switched from Delta to American this year due to move. Picked up $99 AA credit card through Citi bc work pays for lounge access (although Silver from Barclays seems much better w EQMs & 3x points) & Uber Diamond as a passenger.
What setup would maximize benefits? Are Marriott/Hilton cards worth it? Uber credit card bc a lot goes towards dining during the week? Any advice is appreciated. There aren't many videos for the frequent business travelers who don't need all the perks to come from credit cards.
THANK YOU!
Yes- stay tuned. Maybe I’ll do an episode with a road warrior and look behind their curtain since it’s more relatable than my experience
Head to episode 2 here: ruclips.net/video/uFiLdGSlnn8/видео.html
Great intro on you and the company.
Fantastic work! Looking forward to more Australian content soon 😉
I have never been to Western Australia and I hear there is amazing diving / whale sharks!! Stay tuned
Super excited about the launch!!!! Come to Tbilisi, Georgia and I'll show you around one of the hidden gems of the world!
Cool, wish I could have all those points !!!!!
Exciting stuff!

The Points Guy is a badass!
Liked the video premier. because I know it's going to be lit🔥🔥🔥
I love it when people vloggers are this transparent with their finances, makes their advice seem much more trustworthy.
Complete newbie started off with the United Gateway card / just got approved for the United explorer card any tips on how to rack up points would be appreciated Thanks
Is there a newsletter can I can subscribe to ?
This is motivating
Congrats, amazing your honesty, that rare, I start learning for you, I start late, even flying 14 times Australia and 7 times in New Zealand, I didn't take the points, because I thought if the company pay my fought I couldn't earn, I was wrong, but never to late. My only question in this time is about one ticket around the world, I don't see much in RUclips about that, your are the genius, is better taking one way, or how I can start. Thanks
Never too late to learn! Glad you’re now banking and getting value from your travel
Wooooo. Love those Amex points... now just need a Centurion card.

He gains lot of points and he immediately use them. That’s the way to go.
This video is dope AF
🤘🏻
Does TPG still offer that service where you help people use the points most efficiently. That something I would definitely be interested in!
Nope- but bookyouraward.com is a good one
Good stuff

Brian, looking forward to you reviewing the Australian Credit cards schemes. Keep up the great work!
Can you make an updated video like this one for company expenses. IS really usefull
I want that sweatshirt!! Where can I purchase one?

I had a gold Amex and canncel it after 9 months...that was 6months ago...I just got the Delta gold card from them and they said I can't get the sign up bounus because I canceled a card before 12 months! Any way I can do anyy about this? I been a customer of of them for 11yrs! And my blue cash card I never canceled
usually in the fine print it'll say the terms for receiving a sign up bonus. most being 12 or 15 months from your last canceled or opened credit card with the institution. I would keep persisting, but the fine print is the fine print
@@julianiglesias4708 yes I did not read that and they said nothing they can do. I learned my lesson...next time I'll Waite 2 years just to be safe
4:30 is where the answer to the title is.
Great job! Go OG TPG!
When is our mommy points / TPG vlog?!
@@BrianKelly you tell me, boss! We should have you travel with some kiddos and watch the video magic! ;)
Can you tell how to buy points internationally
Nice...
Thanks Erwin! Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode.
Yeah.. I follow you sir..... Im from philippines..
My husband recommended your channel! I’m a gay travel agent. Love your videos so far. Keep it up!
Thank you!!

5:19 Woah, woah, woah, stop the clock. So your employees have to fly on your credit card and it sounds like a lot of the travel is on reward tickets? So employees don't get the card points for themselves and don't earn miles/status when they fly?
A free flight sounds better than paying for yourself and getting points
@@dominick6131 You don't get it...when flying for work, you get reimbursed by the employer.
No we use Amex points to buy tickets so they earn miles. But on expensive Intl first class tix we almost always fly on award tix
And also we pay for all employee credit card annual fees- including platinum! So points earning is very much encouraged- and all employees can use personal cards for biz travel
@@BrianKelly Thanks for clarifying. Great perks.
That awkward moment when you have more Amex points than "The Points Guy" 🤷! Looking forward to more videos Brian!
Quit hoarding and start traveling!!🤣🤣

A million dollars in online ad spend a month??? That's crazy! No wonder you have all those points!
We make money AND points... a major win win!
What luggage was that 👀 someone let me know
might be a rimowa
Rimowa 💰
Taught for sure you have much more then 18 million a year.
Well to be clear that was just Amex
Not nearly as many points as I thought..
I'll trade you :).
喜欢你本人，哈哈
18mill points wow lol how much points is it for a flight lol
TMI? No
I find it unfair to your employees that you earn the points on your card when they travel for your company. It should be they pay for the travel, earn the points and be reimbursed by you.
That's how I work it out for my current employer, if it not, I won't travel for them.
@@raffpants618 yeah they should. I receive a salary and benefits, but I want the points if travelling for work. Maximize as many points I can get.
My employees can use their own cards for travel and I also reimburse the annual fees on all of their cards. They earn miles on paid flights and certain hotel stays - they do quite well!
He’s not hetero I can tell
200k AMEX points worth only about 1300 bucks.

You live too extravagantly. Our planet cannot handle that much consumption from one person. People who don’t make as much money as you do will think they will get free stuff signing up for these cards. What will really happen is they will get caught up in an impossible debt spiral. People will profit from their misery while thinking they earned their extravagance. Do some research. Take some personal inventory and make some changes. Our planet is in big trouble.
I don’t live too extravagantly. I have zero debt and a perfect credit score- that’s how you win at the credit card points game
Credit card companies prey on the poor. They can afford giveaways because they enslave the poor. It’s irrelevant if your debt free. Your lifestyle is excessive. The majority of the people in the world cannot afford to live the way u do. Your fooling yourself if you think your actions don’t effect those around u. Our planet cannot afford that kind of travel. You do live excessively. You’re not deserving, you’re entitled and greedy. You’re selling a lifestyle that is unsustainable. Educate yourself. Stop living in a bubble.
@@YouHaveAGoodPoint You're not wrong exactly, but if given the choice I'd still take millions of points from those same (greedy) credit card companies if I could. You can always use them to donate the value of the points to charity if you feel so inclined. In my anti-capitalist book, screwing credit card companies out of money, causing them to lose value from you instead of gaining the way they do with others, is a good thing provided you use your resources to do good yourself.
d_dave thanks for your good humor. You have a very interesting perspective. :)
What the hell is this ?????
You’ve turned this incredibly horrible idea of “slot machine finance model” into that big a scam - WOW - good for you. The snake oil salesman of the year goes to you, good for you grifter!
