Travel Tools - Anyone else use Traxo

I admit that I like using/comparing the various tracking services, probably more than most, but I'm a bit surprised that there is practically no mention of Traxo on FT.

Maybe it's the competitive nature in me, but I like seeing myself in the top 10 of programs and elite statues, and marvel at profiles of those whose have hit 30+ countries in the last year.

I find myself visiting Traxo and AwardWallet much more frequently than the other 5, 6, 8? that I'm signed up with.

Anyone else?

Never heard of Taxo before...sorry

I dunno which other sites you are referring to, but I use Milewise (https://secured.milewise.com/) for my FF tracking.

At the time that I picked them, they seemed to have the most supported programs compared to the others I researched. They have a nice interface, and it's fairly easy to refresh all your point balances at once. I hate it when I have to click each program individually to find out how many points I have. Milewise has a single "update all" button you can click to make it retrieve your latest mileage totals.

I haven't tried Traxo though, so maybe they are better.... it would be nice to hear reviews for the top ten or whatever...

Thank you for the Milewise website. And I will also check out Traxo.

I have been using Traxo and really like it. But it can be slow on importing trips. Other then that I like the competition part of it as well.

Wow - thanks for the tip on Traxo. It looks like American Airlines is still available to be tracked on this site, unlike Award Wallet and MileWise. I do like how they gamified the site - it seems to be much more interactive and fun to use. I'm a fan.

I've thought about doing this, would just need the time.

AwardWallet, Traxo, UsingMiles, GoMiles, Milewise, Yodlee (and it's OEM variants), MileageManager, MileTracker/MilePort (same program), Points.com, Tripit. I think those are the ones I'm signed-up for - any others I'm missing? (I think Acruw vaporized in the last year or two)

I haven't really tracked Traxo's timeliness, but i do know the trip I scheduled yesterday was loaded when I logged in this morning. I also emailed their support/new features team yesterday and received an answer today.

I still turn to AwardWallet for the broadest list of programs and the easiest place to just check my balance and click-through to the sites (although the need the AA workaround soon), but Traxo is fun to watch/compare.

which of these completely free?? (no betas, limited time free etc...)

Traxo is free. Great site and easy to put in all of my data. I've been using it for a few years, recommended.

I've never paid for anything but AwardWallet (which, I guess, shows how superior it is). I seem to recall I was a beta tester on one or two which bypassed an annual fee. But most of them are free.

I've used Traxo pretty much since it first was available. I should qualify that probably to say that I signed up and have an account but haven't really used it actively. The UI was a challenge and it had troubles with some of my crazier trips.

My travel score is an 86 (https://www.traxo.com/profile/view?id=15072f6d93ecb2675a39d19c9002eed8), though somehow flying to India and Sri Lanka the past couple weeks decreased my score, so I'm not really sure what's up with that. I actually got the email offer last time around for the prizes of being a "winner" in their system. I think it was a $50 Avis coupon or a magazine subscription or something like that. Ultimately I never got hooked on it, mostly because the way it handles trips isn't as strong as TripIt and I like the points tracking of GoMiles much better.

The expiration feature doesn't work with BA, US etc.. Looking for something that works with those. Also their UI is clunky...

I have 38 accounts loaded and only 4 show expiration dates. As noted, Award Wallet is superior for most purposes.

Traxo is just interesting from a scoring/comparative/community standpoint - 8 different leaderboard to compare and contrast.

what's the next best free product after Award Wallet

Thanks for the tip. Signed up, loaded my account info and everything posted except one leg of a trip that I booked using PENFED Rewards.

Will make it much easier to keep track of everything for my wife and me all in one account. May become a daily check.
