Can't register with points.com
I'm trying to register with points.com, but the sign-up page says my password is not valid. I'm definitely on the sign up page - not the sign-in page. I've tried using complex passwords to no avail.
I've also tried using different browsers in case it was a technical issue.
I can't find anything online that suggests this is a common problem. Any suggestions?

They don't have a help desk on any social media at weekends, so I'm asking here first as I'm likely to get a quicker reply - it might be a common problem and someone knows how to solve it.
The password requires a letter and number, which I have tried. I also tried caps.

Try logging in, then when it fails, try Forgot Password, and see if it is able to do that. If so, that means it knows your email address already and it needs you to reset your password, rather than re-register.
As to complexity of password, although I set up mine a few years ago, mine works as being 5 letters and 2 digits. (I don't know whether they require anything more complex for new accounts or not.)
