Will it work? · our read
Durable by data. A 22-year-old free tool most travelers never heard of, quietly clearing about $150K a month on Plus upgrades and card-affiliate fees. Its moat is scraper upkeep nobody else wants.

Starter Story (2020) — founder Alexi Vereschaga states about $150K/mo and almost $2M/yr.AwardWallet — About — first-party: 946K active members, 602 loyalty programs (2026).Wikipedia — AwardWallet — founded 2004, 2012 cease-and-desist, 2013 American Airlines API integration.American Airlines press release — AA and AwardWallet reward-tracking integration.Travel-Dealz — AwardWallet Plus raised to $50/yr on Dec 18, 2024.
Revenue is STATED, not filed: in a June 2020 Starter Story interview co-founder Alexi Vereschaga said AwardWallet averages 'about $150,000 per month' and did 'almost $2MM' the prior year. That verbatim figure is the number on this card; it is six years old, so treat it as a floor, not a current read. Starter Story's own '$541K/mo' estimate box was NOT used — it is a third-party projection the founder never stated. Member count (946K) and 602 programs are first-party from the current About page (2026). The 2012 four-airline cease-and-desist and 2013 American Airlines API integration are documented on Wikipedia and an American Airlines press release. Founder LinkedIn (in/veresch) confirmed via multiple directories. verified:true — first-party interview plus first-party metrics. We never score you.
