UsingMiles provides a dashboard for frequent flyers to aggregate and manage loyalty programs across airlines, hotels, car rentals, credit cards, and retailers. Users can search for and book flights, cars, and hotel rooms from the dashboard, see how many points are needed for itineraries, and pay with cash, miles, or a combination. The platform integrates with 90 percent of consumer rewards programs and includes a proprietary recommendation engine that calculates the most economical use of miles and advises when to redeem versus pay with cash. UsingMiles graduated from TechStars and recently raised $2.7 million in new funding led by iSherpa Capital. The article does not specify additional future plans beyond the new funding and leadership change.
