Partners
and Multi-Language Capabilities,
Accelerating its EMEA Expansion

Now Available to Members of EMEAs
Leading Frequent Flyer Programs
LONDON AND TORONTO, May 27, 2015 PointsHound, the first online hotel booking service designed specifically for frequent travelers which is owned and operated by Points International, a global leader in loyalty currency management, (TSX: PTS; NASDAQ: PCOM), today announced new strategic partnerships with several of Europe, the Middle East and Africas (EMEA) leading frequent flyer programs including Alitalia MilleMiglia, Virgin Atlantic Flying Club, and Finnair Plus. These programs join existing PointsHound partners Air France KLMs Flying Blue, Iceland Airs Saga Club, and Etihad Guest. This partner expansion allows members of these leading rewards programs to earn even more loyalty currency by booking hotel reservations directly on PointsHound.com.
PointsHound users can now earn frequent flier miles and loyalty rewards points in over 20 loyalty programs on a growing roster of hotels which offer up to 5,000 points or miles per stay. PointsHound hotel reservations can be purchased in more than 25 different currencies including the Euro, Pound Sterling and Swiss Franc.
