Slipstream

How it works

Slipstream answers one question — what is the smartest thing I can do with my points today? — and shows its reasoning every step of the way.

01

You speak normally

No IATA codes, no award charts, no alliance diagrams. Tell Slipstream what you hold and where you'd like to go, the way you'd tell a friend.

02

We translate the loyalty maze

Behind the scenes we map your bank points to each airline programme we cover that they can transfer to, apply each partner's published transfer ratio, and estimate the route's award price in each programme's own currency.

03

Transparent maths, not a black box

Every recommendation shows its working: the points required, the taxes, the cash a seat would cost, and the resulting pence-per-point. You see exactly why one option beats another.

04

Seats first, then points

Amex UK transfers are final, so every result tells you to confirm award seats with the airline first — and how long the transfer takes to arrive, from each partner's published terms.

A note on accuracy

Today's figures are transparent, distance-based estimates that are realistic enough to rank your options — every one is labelled “Estimate, not live availability”. Live award availability isn't integrated yet. Until it is, always confirm seats with the airline before transferring points.
