Hey there, points people! Today, I'm chatting with Allison, a student from the Points Accelerator Program.

In this episode we dive into how Allison has saved her family of four, $15,000+ in travel to places like Morocco, Costa Rica and The Grand Canyon!  We also discuss how she earned hundreds of thousands of points with business cards as a stay at home mom, top tips for taking your kids on adventures across the globe and so much more!

For those looking to maximize their points earning, even without having an LLC with business cards, consider the Chase Ink Business Cash for your next card!
