Travelocity and Barclays Bank Delaware have launched the Travelocity Rewards MasterCard.

The initiative is about a programme, that enables users to earn double or triple points for travel purchased on Travelocity with the new MasterCard card, in addition to points on everyday purchases.

An official releases states that unlike traditional mileage programmes that are restricted by limited seat availability, blackout dates and brand choice, the Travelocity Rewards MasterCard has no blackout dates or travel restrictions and can be redeemed online for travel on any airline, hotel, car rental company, or flight + hotel package available on Travelocity at any time.

“Regardless of what airline you want to fly or when you want to travel, Travelocity now offers the program that gives customers more control than ever over how many points they redeem and for which travel product,” said Victoria Treyger, vice president, merchandising and product marketing, Travelocity.

“The programme allows our customers to focus on what matters most - finding and booking an amazing trip,” said Treyger.

The card allows consumers to earn points that offer instant credit back. Customers can start redeeming points on all standalone flight purchases immediately, with other travel products - including hotel, car and packaged deals - expected to be redeemable beginning October 2006.

Customers have complete control over how many points they redeem and no longer need to wait to reach a high level for redemption. They can redeem as few as 5,000 points for $50 off their travel booking or 7,500 points for $100 off a travel booking.

According to the company, redemption is just as easy. Customers redeem their Travelocity points directly in the purchase path as soon as they enter their credit card information.
