Points.com Helps Ghosts and Goblins Save Green This Halloween With Loyalty
Rewards Shopping and Saving Tips

TORONTO, Oct. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - From haunted houses and costume
parties to jack-o'-lanterns and trick-or-treating, adults and children alike
are shopping for their favorite outfits, candies and fresh pumpkins - all to
make this Halloween one to remember. This Halloween, don't add a dent in your
bank account to the list of creepy crawlies that scare you. Millions of
consumers have access to trillions of frequent flier miles and other rewards
points - an underused currency that can be used to purchase anything from
pirate costumes to vampire teeth to make a truly ghoulish Halloween.
If you're planning the Halloween of a lifetime while also saving a little
extra money, redeeming rewards earned through loyalty programs are the answer.
Points International Ltd. (TSX: PTS; OTCBB: PTSEF), the world's leading
loyalty reward solutions provider and owner of Points.com, offers several easy
and economical ways to save money by not only redeeming miles and points for
this Halloween's must-have goodies, but the site's Global Points Exchange
service will help jet set party goers fly to one of the season's best
Halloween parties.
Points can help maximize Halloween fun while minimizing costs with a number
products and services that will make All Hallow's Eve the best it can be:

    -   The Monster Mash. Whether you want to be a witch, an angel or a
        mummy, redeem your rewards for gift cards at retailers like
        Amazon.com or T.J. Maxx(R) that can be used to purchase Halloween
        costumes. If Fido needs a costume, too, consider a gift card for
        PETCO.

    -   When Summer leaves, it brings the Fall Leaves. Halloween isn't just
        about hocus pocus; it also means a change in the weather. From the
        falling leaves to the cool weather, fall requires some extra up-keep
        around the yard. Make sure to have all you need to spruce up your
        lawn and bushes so they're perfectly presentable to trick-or-
        treaters. Turn rewards into gift cards that can be used at stores
        like Home Depot or Lowes for all your lawn and garden needs.

    -   Spooky Movie Marathon. If you plan on spending a more subdued
        Halloween at home, use your rewards to purchase gift cards from
        retailers like Blockbuster or Best Buy to stock up on your favorite
        scary movies.

    -   Haunted Happenings in Salem (or New Orleans, or Charleston, or New
        York). The weeks leading up to Halloween are filled with parades,
        parties and ghost tours from coast to coast. From large cities such
        as New York and Old Montreal to smaller, but still delightfully scary
        places like Gettysburg, Penn. or Galveston, Tex. Even take a trip to
        Salem to see where it all started. Use your rewards for flights and
        hotel stays in your ghostly city of choice from some of our many
        partners including: American Airlines AAdvantage(R), Aeroplan(R),
        AsiaMiles(TM), British Airways Executive Club, Wyndham Rewards(R),
        Delta SkyMiles(R), InterContinental Hotels Group's Priority Club(R)
        Rewards and more. Just a few miles or points short of a redemption
        level? Check out Points.com for more ways to earn, purchase or trade
        for additional miles or points to get you to the reward level you
        desire.
