Item by item
What one point bought on each hotel, every month. Each item is checked twice: about 60 days before travel and about 180 days before.
All 4 charts share one scale, so their heights compare directly.
Grey dots are individual checks. The white tick is the middle value. TPG and NerdWallet each publish one number per program; this index shows the whole range.
