An online exchange for frequent-flier miles

One downside to frequent-flier programs is being limited to one airline, but now thanks to The Global Points Exchange on Points.com, a loyalty program management site which lets members of participating programs trade miles, that is soon to become a thing of the past.

After signing up for a free account, users can browse an online trading board for listings or post their own. Users set the terms and pay the exchange about a penny for each mile swapped. So far, the exchange works over 15 major airlines, including British Airways and Virgin, as well as the InterContinental Hotels Group.
