Travel the world for free.
TLDR: Rove Miles is the first universal airline mile program. Earn up to 25x miles on everyday spend, hotel stays, flights, and through partner programs—all on top of your existing credit card rewards. Then, redeem those miles effortlessly across 12 global loyalty programs, 140+ airlines, and 200,000+ hotels at up to 90% off.
Hey everyone! We're Max and Arhan, founders of Rove, and we're excited to launch the first universal travel loyalty program that works across almost every airline and hotel in the world.
Before Rove, we founded startups at Wharton and Harvard—connecting people through specialized Bluetooth software and revolutionizing edtech recruiting. Between scaling businesses and attending class, we traveled to over 50 countries for free in business and first class, leveraging credit card points and loyalty transfers. But our friends? They were stuck on the sidelines, locked out by complicated rules, outdated credit requirements, and high fees.

The Problem: Gaps in Accessibility and Usability
Travel rewards today exclude millions, especially young people. Over 70 million Americans can't access premium travel credit cards, leaving a majority of Gen Z—the generation most eager to travel—unable to earn a meaningful number of miles and points across airline and hotel loyalty programs, which provide discounts of up to 90% compared to standard credit card travel portals. Unlike markets like Hong Kong and Singapore, where earning miles is easy and part of everyday life, Americans face unnecessary complexity and high barriers.
Our Solution: Rove Miles
Rove Miles makes travel accessible and rewarding for everyone. We've unified 12 major international loyalty programs into a single, universal currency that's easy to earn (always on top of your existing credit card rewards) and simple to redeem:
- Earn miles on over 7,000 merchants by activating the Rove Shopping chrome extension before your purchase.
- Earn up to 25x miles on hotel bookings made through Rove, which can be earned instantly for non-refundable stays to cover your flight there or add extra free nights.
- Earn 3x bonus miles on flights on top of the miles you get from the airline when booking through Rove.
Soon, you'll also earn Rove Miles from dining, in-store purchases, and transferring existing points in from partner programs.
Rove’s Transfer Partners
Rove’s initial loyalty program partners are:
- Air France-KLM Flying Blue
- Air India Maharaja Club

More programs are coming soon, with our current partnerships covering all three major airline alliances.

Soon, you will be able to use miles on unique travel experiences, such as events, festivals, private jet charters, or flying in zero gravity!
