Hi Travel Junkies,
Welcome to the new 10xtravel.com website!
We have certainly come a long way since version 1.0 launched in the summer of 2014.
There are a ton of new features that we are excited to share with you so let’s dive right in.
Better Design & Functionality
New websites are a bit like new smartphone models, an updated design and better (and faster) functionality are table stakes.
Thankfully, our new website has that and more.
You’ll find all of our content to be more readable thanks to cleaner, more organized layout and a handful of new features.
Every article has a clickable table of contents that scrolls along with you as you continue reading, allowing you to quickly navigate to any section of the piece you desire. You’ll see this on the left side of your screen right now with this section of the article (“Better Design & Functionality”) highlighted to indicate your current location.
You’ll also notice an orange progress bar at the top that expands as you scroll through an article. Go ahead, keep scrolling right now and watch how it works.
We have added "call out" features, like this one, to highlight particularly important pieces of an article
We also rebuilt our card tiles to show more information about each card offer and highlight the cards featured in a particular article.
Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card
60,000
bonus points
after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months of account opening.
Annual Fee: $95
Headlines
Things move pretty fast in the points & miles/travel world, with deals and strategies changing at a moment’s notice. Keeping up with all of these changes is very difficult for anyone with a limited amount of time to dedicate to this hobby.
Enter our new Headlines Page.
Headlines is designed to be a single place to catch up on everything that is currently going on in the world of points, miles, and travel. No need to browse multiple websites and forums to catch up on the basics, it will all be right here.
Our Headlines Page will be updated in real time and will be the first outlet for breaking news, current strategies, and any other information that we think you need to know.
You might consider bookmarking it to be your first stop when catching up with what’s going on in points & miles.
Award Booking Service
Earning points & miles is relatively easy, but redeeming them can be difficult and time consuming. Even for the most experienced points & miles enthusiasts.
Which is why we are thrilled to announce the launch of a formal 10xTravel Award Booking Service.
Pricing is simple and straightforward, and your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed.
You can relax knowing that you have an expert in your corner to help you get the most out of your points & miles.
Better Tools to Help You Compare Credit Card Offers (Built with the Honesty You Expect from 10xT)
At 10xTravel we are known for our monthly best credit cards list. We were one of the first websites to rank card offers on a regular basis and we were the first to do so with the 5/24 rule in mind.
More importantly, we have made a point of doing these rankings without allowing them to be influenced by our own financial interests. The new 10xtravel.com will continue to do just that on our best cards page, with a new layout that makes it much easier to find more information about each card.
We have also come to realize that simply ranking the best card offers for the average person is not enough. Many people have unique circumstances that would further influence their card choices, or simply want to compare other options.
So we built a couple of additional tools to help.
The first is a tool on our credit cards page that allows you to filter offers based on the issuer, annual fee, type of card, etc. Making it easy for you to compare only the card options that meet your criteria.
The second is a series of card category pages to help you learn more about particular types of credit cards, how they work, and compare some of the best options on the market.
So if you are interested in a hotel card, for example, you’ll be able to read all about how hotel cards work, which cards are the best for each hotel brand, FAQs, and more.
You can find these pages by navigating to the “Cards” tab on the main site navigation menu.
Free Credit Repair Tools
Earning points & miles with credit cards is great, but unfortunately it is not an option for many people who are struggling with their credit.
Which is why we have decided to give away our credit repair toolkit for free.
The kit includes a step-by-step guide to repairing and optimizing your credit score + a handful of guides, scripts, and templates to make the process as easy as possible.
We used to sell this for upwards of $49 per copy but recently decided that the right thing to do would be to just give it away for free.
You can download a copy right now by visiting our credit repair page.
10xTravel Store
You’ve been asking, and finally we have answered.
Our brand new 10xT Store is currently open and stocked with a variety of 10xT gear! You can check it out right now by visiting our 10xTravel Store Page.
We will be updating products on a regular basis to make sure we continue to stay “cool”. Please don’t hesitate to send us any ideas you have!

I want to emphasize that 10xTravel+ was designed to add to our already existing offerings at 10xTravel. All of the perks & benefits are brand new, we will not be moving any existing features “behind a paywall”.
We are still the same 10xTravel that you know and love. 10xTravel+ is simply an opportunity for anyone who is looking to get even more out of 10xTravel.
Bottom Line
We are thrilled to be sharing these updates with you and excited for what’s in store in 2021 and beyond.
A special thanks to 10xT’s Director of Digital, Matt Brown, for working with us to build this new website and a big thank you to the many volunteers from the 10xTravel Insiders Facebook Group who helped with testing and feedback.
Finally, a huge thank you to all of you who read and support 10xT. Thank you for being the best readers on the internet!
Happy Travels,
