RateRadar

Same store. Wildly different rewards.

Airline miles and loyalty points are converted to effective cash back using typical per-program values (e.g. airline miles ~1.4¢, MyPoints ~0.6¢, Radisson ~0.4¢). Slide to value them more or less generously; cash-back percentages are unaffected.

About this prototype. RateRadar is a demonstration rebuild of the idea behind checkbeforeyoushop.com. Rates are read from each portal’s public pages and shown in native units (percent, or points/miles converted at a valuation you control). “Stores compared” are those found on 2+ portals (the ones worth a side-by-side); the larger “tracked” figure counts every store listing seen across all portals. Points/miles valuations are assumptions, and headline “up to” rates can be category-restricted or promotional. This tool does not mint tracked affiliate links — “View” sends you to the portal’s own public store page. Snapshot generated 2026-09-19T16:25:37+00:00.
