Ability to track Points and Rewards for Credit Cards (edited)

It would be amazing if we could track our credit card points, airline miles, hotel points, etc etc in the same place as the rest of our financial lives. This could be a HUGE differentiator as I don't believe any other tool does it. I'd love to retire my spreadsheet and see it on my dashboard!

Services like the AwardWallet website or the MaxRewards app allow you to keep track of how much credit card rewards are available on each of your cards. They're useful, but it's kind of inconvenient to have that separate from all my other finances, especially when it comes to making sure all the accounts stay synced. Incorporating that as a feature in Simplifi would be a nice touch.

I vote for this feature as well. If Quicken doesn't provide it, it leaves the door open for a competitor to do an All-In-1 solution.

Voted for it. For the most part, I convert my rewards into cash or statement credit or amazon gift cards as soon as I can - sometimes, for example, there are minimum points balance one must have to do this, so being able to track it here and know when to cash it in might be helpful.

This would be a helpful feature for our household.

I found it complicated to use in Quicken Classic Windows when they had it. It didn't really work very well. I won't vote it down but not sure it's worth the effort.

Interesting. I have used Quicken Classic for a long time and I don't believe that I ever saw tracking point as a feature. Sorry you didn't have a good experience with that.

Well, it was in the Windows version BUT memory could be faulty because I originally used Microsoft Money until they moved us to Quicken Classic in 2009, so it could have been in Money, and the more I think about it, that's probably right. Back then it was mostly points that had to be redeemed in a complicated fashion. Today it is easier to get cash back.

I used Microsoft Money from 1991-2009 and used to put it in my signature, but figured most people now don't even remember it. I used Dollars & Sense in DOS before that.
