Show Notes

Matt Brown is the CEO of MileValue. Matt is also a web developer, wood building junkie, drone enthusiast, and golf addict. Matt also runs my personal affiliate links page, which you can find at www.geobreezetravel.com/cards. Just a reminder never ever ever just Google a credit card and apply from there, always use someone’s referral link or affiliate link so that the banks pay out the commissions to the people who told you about their cards. And if you are interested in getting affiliate links of your own, check out milevalue.com/affiliate-program.

In today’s episode, Matt and I discuss how do these affiliate programs even work, how can you get started with credit card affiliate links if you are a small points and miles content creator, and also a short history about how companies like 10x Travel are forced to adapt when banks sometimes just shut down affiliate programs like they did last year.

This podcast was made in partnership with the Fluz App. The Fluz marketing team is open to working with small creator channels, and I have personally made more than $700 through Fluz’s cashback and referral program in just a few weeks. Would you be interested in a PAID collaboration with Fluz?

If so, Step 1: download the app via my referral code: GEOBREEZETRAVEL and get three (3) vouchers to earn up to 35% cashback on merchants such as CVS, UberEats, Doordash and more!

Step 2: send me an email at julia@geobreezetravel.com letting me know you’d be interested in hosting a paid giveaway, and I’ll introduce you to the Fluz team!

Meet Your Host

Julia Menez

During the pandemic, Julia was stuck at home and wanted to talk to more friends about points and miles. So she reached out to some points people on Instagram and the conversation went something like this…

Julia: hey, do you want to hang out on a Zoom video chat and talk about points?
Other people: no…. I don’t even know you.
Julia: what if I record our conversation and release it to thousands of people on the internet?
Other people: Oh! Are you starting a points podcast? I’d love to be featured!

And thus the Geobreeze Travel was born, if only to bamboozle other points people into being friends with Julia.

P.S. She’s always looking for more points friends. Click the “let’s be friends!” button to send a pitch to be featured on the podcast.
