India’s prominent credit card and loyalty rewards optimisation platform has introduced SaveSage Travel, a new travel booking solution designed to help users compare flight and hotel bookings using both traditional payments and loyalty rewards in real time.

Following its launch, the platform has witnessed an 11-fold increase in travel searches, with nearly 85% of users checking the difference between cash prices and available points or miles before making booking decisions. The data reveals that in half of these comparisons, redeeming loyalty points or miles provided greater value than paying the full cash fare, showing the growing importance of rewards optimisation among travellers.

Through SaveSage Travel, users can assess multiple payment options for every booking, including paying directly with cash, using accumulated airline or hotel loyalty points, or transferring credit card rewards into partner loyalty programmes. The feature enables travellers to identify the most cost-effective option and maximise the value of their rewards directly through the SaveSage app.

Commenting on the launch, Ashish Lath, Founder & CEO, SaveSage, said, “Millions of Indians earn valuable reward points every day through their credit cards, yet most still struggle to understand the best way to use them. The choice between paying with cash, redeeming points or transferring rewards can often determine whether someone saves a few hundred rupees or several thousand on the exact same trip. SaveSage Travel brings these decisions together into one simple experience, helping travellers get the most savings out of every booking without needing to navigate multiple websites.”

SaveSage’s latest travel offering is built around its rewards intelligence technology, designed to help travellers maximise the value of their points and loyalty benefits. The platform monitors data from more than 1,000 credit cards along with 85 airline and hotel loyalty programmes, allowing users to explore flight and hotel options, compare traditional cash prices against points or miles, discover the most rewarding redemption or transfer strategies, and finalise bookings through a single integrated experience.

The launch strengthens SaveSage’s broader ecosystem, which focuses on helping users optimise credit card benefits and loyalty rewards for smarter financial and travel decisions. The platform is designed to simplify the process of understanding rewards, identifying valuable redemption opportunities, and making more informed booking choices.

SaveSage’s technology has already supported more than one million travel searches and personalised redemption recommendations, highlighting the growing demand for tools that help travellers extract greater value from their accumulated points and miles.

The company has also recorded strong user adoption, with its mobile application surpassing 1.5 million installs. This growth reflects increasing interest among consumers seeking digital solutions that combine travel planning with rewards management.

Alongside its expanding user base, SaveSage has attracted more than 250,000 paying subscribers, demonstrating the rising popularity of premium services that help travellers maximise credit card rewards, loyalty programmes, and travel savings opportunities.
