Sell and trade points
Choose Primary for complete lots sold by an issuer, or Markets for customer buy and sell offers.
Choose the sale model#
| Primary | Markets | |
|---|---|---|
| Seller | The issuer selling its existing inventory | A customer selling points, or a buyer posting a funded buy offer |
| Purchase size | The entire lot at its fixed total price | Partial or full fills at the offer’s unit price |
| Access | Public, unlisted, or selected partner | Program-specific public offers |
| Fees | Buyer fee paid to Loyfin; issuer receives the lot price | Taker fee shared between issuer and Loyfin on every fill |
See Primary and its deployment availability, Markets, and fees and revenue. Buying points does not change the issuer’s redemption terms or guarantee a future buyer.
Distinguish point expiry from an offer deadline#
An offer deadline stops purchases. Point expiry makes the points unusable and can prevent recovering escrowed points. Cancel sell inventory before point expiry. Markets buy offers can return their unspent USD even after point expiry. New program contracts have no issuer-operated transfer pause; legacy restrictions may still affect older programs.
