The problem to figure it by the rate given is precisely when temporary offers, such as the one you've exposed with IHG (3x normal). You can't accumulate at the promotional rate all the time (not only that, but you can accumulate for IHG stays / purchases, but you can't use MyP's for that same company), so the best way to figure the value is from the reward point of view, not what you accumulate with. Then you can compare with other ways of accumulation, like credit card purchases... .

major change in the video watching/points earning option ? Instead of one point per video with a max of 75 points per day, you need to watch a lot more videos ! The worst one I've seen is possibly - watch 20 videos with 59 minutes run time for SIX POINTS !
"In order to continue offering videos, we've had to change to a playlist format. This will improve the content available and reduce some of the recurring technical issues. Also, once the playlist starts, it autoplays until completion or unless paused. The Points are displayed on each playlist prior to selecting and watching. We may make minor adjustments to Point offers for videos in the future, but unfortunately we can no longer to afford to offer 1 Point per video, however, you can earn up to 500 Points per day vs. 75 Points now. The Points for videos watched on 9/27 will be awarded to member accounts within the next 7 days." other changes for search, surveys and rewards were announced on Facebook .... "Search: We have changed the search program to award Points instantly based on a random algorithm. From 9/28 on, you will no longer earn Points for a certain number of searches but will have the opportunity to win them as you search (I won 14 Points for one search just the other day!). Also, you can now “toggle” to web vs. shop from any page on MyPoints to do your web searches. We will be posting Points for the number of searches you did from 9/1-9/27 to accounts within the next 7 days. Surveys: There are now more survey opportunities than ever once you’ve updated your survey profile! There are additional profile questions which you can choose to take and earn 5 Points for every 10 answers. Rewards: We are eventually transitioning to e-certs vs. physical gift cards, although we will continue to offer some physical gift card options. E-certs unfortunately will not be delivered immediately but can take 2-3 days or longer for fulfillment to be completed. We will also be bringing back the ability to purchase e-cards and earn Points sometime in mid-October. We realize change can be upsetting and disorienting, but we hope you will give yourselves some time to explore and acclimate to the new site as well as give us time to fix any stray bugs and glitches." |
So moving more towards how Swagbucks does it.

"Note from sender, SWAGBUCKS: Just thought you'd like to know MyPoints sent you Paypal Cash." The only good thing from all of this is that Paypal is now available for fewer points, and they offer cashout options for as low as 480 points for a $3 Amazon gift card. Otherwise, I think it's going to be a lot more difficult to earn points other than shopping through their link unless they offer some sort of promo or bonus. |
One of the very WORST "improvements" I could ever imagine--I am finished with MyPoints!!:(
|
They have also apparently got rid of the ability to watch videos on a browser of a mobile device.

One good thing did happen
All my pending points are immediately available. Seems most of the rewards went up though: 5000 UA miles now 13,800 vs 13,000, etc. However, IHG bookings down to 3 pt/$. Bummer.

For a lot of the gift card redemptions, you actually get worse $/point when redeeming for higher value gift cards (although often it's very close). For example, it takes 1580 points to get 2 $5 Walmart gift cards, but 1590 points to get 1 $10 GC. tls

At 13800, I think I'm done redeeming for UA miles. Time to abandon ship.
