If you continue seeing ads immediately after saving your preferences, check again later while logged in to your Plus account.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Other_Benefits_of_AwardWallet_Plus\">Other Benefits of AwardWallet Plus<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Getting rid of ads isn't the only reason to subscribe to AwardWallet Plus. You can find a complete comparison in our guide to the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/features\/awardwallet-plus-perks\/\" rel=\"noopener\">perks of AwardWallet Plus<\/a>. But here are some of the most useful benefits.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Track_expiration_dates_for_unlimited_accounts\">Track expiration dates for unlimited accounts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AwardWallet Free lets you track an unlimited number of loyalty accounts, but it only displays expiration dates for up to three programs. AwardWallet Plus removes that limit, so you can see expiration dates across your connected accounts.<\/p>\n<p>For rewards with a tracked expiration date, AwardWallet can send reminders 90, 60, and 30 days before expiration. It will also send daily notifications during the final seven days. These reminders not only help keep your points and miles from expiring, but they also help you <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/features\/how-to-track-points-using-awardwallet\/\" rel=\"noopener\">keep track of rewards<\/a> such as hotel free night certificates, airline companion certificates, and other benefits.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Update_loyalty_accounts_more_frequently\">Update loyalty accounts more frequently<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AwardWallet Free members can update an individual loyalty account twice within a 24-hour period. AwardWallet Plus members can update accounts an unlimited number of times.<\/p>\n<p>Plus can update several accounts at once, making a full refresh up to 5X faster. Eligible loyalty accounts can also refresh automatically in the background.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"View_additional_account_details\">View additional account details<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For supported programs, AwardWallet Plus can display additional account properties such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Elite status and progress toward the next tier<\/li>\n<li>Hotel free night certificates<\/li>\n<li>Airline companion and upgrade certificates<\/li>\n<li>Credit card statement credits and other tracked benefits<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span id=\"Review_historical_balances_and_transactions\">Review historical balances and transactions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AwardWallet Plus provides charts showing how your rewards balances have changed over time. For some loyalty accounts, you can also review individual historical transactions.<\/p>\n<p>This history can help you confirm that a bonus posted, identify an unfamiliar balance change, or look back at how many points you used for a previous redemption. Plus members can also export rewards data in Excel or PDF format.<\/p>\n<p>Not every loyalty program provides AwardWallet with the same amount of account data, so the available transaction history and account properties vary by program.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Access_up_to_10_years_of_travel_history\">Access up to 10 years of travel history<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AwardWallet\u2019s travel tools organize flights, hotel stays, rental cars, and other reservations in one place. AwardWallet Free provides access to one year of travel history. Plus, on the other hand, shows members up to 10 years of travel history.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Monitor_balance_changes_with_Balance_Watch\">Monitor balance changes with Balance Watch<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>AwardWallet Plus members can use <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/features\/awardwallet-balance-watch\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Balance Watch<\/a> to monitor a loyalty account for a change and receive an alert when the balance updates.<\/p>\n<p>This feature is especially helpful after transferring points to an airline or hotel program. Instead of repeatedly refreshing the loyalty account, you can let AwardWallet monitor it and notify you when the points arrive.<\/p>\n<p>Each new or renewed AwardWallet Plus subscription includes one Balance Watch credit. Additional credits are available for purchase.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Is_AwardWallet_Plus_Worth_It_Just_To_Remove_Ads\">Is AwardWallet Plus Worth It Just To Remove Ads?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/pricing\" rel=\"noopener\">AwardWallet Plus costs $49.99 per year<\/a>. It's probably not worth upgrading\u00a0<em>just<\/em> to remove ads. But remember that ad removal isn't the only benefit of AwardWallet Plus.<\/p>\n<p>You get the ability to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Manage rewards across numerous loyalty programs<\/li>\n<li>Monitor multiple points, miles, or certificate expiration dates<\/li>\n<li>Update accounts more frequently or automatically<\/li>\n<li>Track elite status, certificates, and credit card benefits<\/li>\n<li>Access historical balances, transactions, and travel records<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you only track a few loyalty programs, AwardWallet Free is probably enough. If, however, you\u2019re juggling points, miles, certificates, and elite status across several programs, the tracking tools you get with Plus can make managing everything a heck of a lot easier.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Bottom_Line\">Bottom Line<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Going ad-free is a nice perk of AwardWallet Plus, but it\u2019s far from the only one. If you use AwardWallet even semi-regularly to keep tabs on your points, miles, and travel plans, the $49.99 annual subscription comes with plenty of tools that make that job easier.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ftoc\"><div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"toc_light_blue no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Page Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#Can_You_Use_AwardWallet_Without_Ads\">Can You Use AwardWallet Without Ads?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#How_To_Turn_Off_Ads_on_AwardWallet\">How To Turn Off Ads on AwardWallet<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Other_Benefits_of_AwardWallet_Plus\">Other Benefits of AwardWallet Plus<\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#Track_expiration_dates_for_unlimited_accounts\">Track expiration dates for unlimited accounts<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Update_loyalty_accounts_more_frequently\">Update loyalty accounts more frequently<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#View_additional_account_details\">View additional account details<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Review_historical_balances_and_transactions\">Review historical balances and transactions<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Access_up_to_10_years_of_travel_history\">Access up to 10 years of travel history<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Monitor_balance_changes_with_Balance_Watch\">Monitor balance changes with Balance Watch<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"#Is_AwardWallet_Plus_Worth_It_Just_To_Remove_Ads\">Is AwardWallet Plus Worth It Just To Remove Ads?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Bottom_Line\">Bottom Line<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AwardWallet Plus offer numerous perks, from tracking all of your expiration dates on unlimited accounts to more frequent updates.
