Points do not last forever. Pick your program, tell us your last activity, and see the deadline before it sneaks up on you.
Choose a program and your last activity date to see the deadline.
Reset the clock the cheap way
Most programs only need a sign of life. Earn a handful of points through a shopping or dining portal, or make a tiny redemption, and the inactivity timer starts over. If you are not going to use the balance at all, selling it before the deadline beats letting it vanish.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions, answered straight.
Most programs expire your balance after a set period of inactivity, often 12 to 24 months with no earning or redeeming. A few programs do not expire points at all as long as the account stays open. The clock usually resets with any qualifying activity.
Any qualifying activity typically resets the expiration clock: earning even a few points through a shopping portal or dining program, or making a small redemption. You do not need a flight or a stay, just movement on the account.
Some programs let you reinstate expired points for a fee within a grace window, but it is not guaranteed. The cleaner move is to act before the deadline. If you are not going to use a balance, selling it before it expires turns it into cash instead of nothing.
