Amtrak Guest Rewards is excited to launch one of the biggest enhancements in the history of the program: Points & Cash. Points & Cash allows members to purchase Amtrak travel using a combination of Amtrak Guest Rewards points and cash. Previously, members had to use all points or all cash for a booking. With more redemption options and fewer points needed, it’s easier than ever for members to redeem their points for Amtrak travel.

Points & Cash is available exclusively on Amtrak.com and the Amtrak App. When booking for travel, customers can select the “Use Points” filter in the search results and then choose their preferred itinerary. Up to four Points & Cash options will be presented on the payment screen for each trip.
