We announced the waitlist for the TPG App just a few short weeks ago — and today's the day that our early adopters can begin downloading the iOS app! There has been a ton of excitement around the release of the app, and to ensure the best user experience, we are sending out invites in batches.

However, if you haven't joined the waitlist yet, you're in luck! There's still time to get early access before a full release to the general public later this summer.

Keep reading to find out how (and why) you should join the waitlist to download the TPG App today.

Why you should join the waitlist now

There are thousands of people already on the waitlist, and invites are going out in chronological order. In other words, the longer you wait to join, the later you'll get access to the app.

Don't wait any longer to grab a spot, which will then unlock exciting features like the award explorer tool and the ability to calculate your points net worth.

What you can do with the TPG App

The TPG App was designed to be the only tool you'll need to master the world of loyalty programs and credit cards — where you'll learn about points through your customizable TPG homepage, earn more points by using suggestions from the cards tab and identify the best ways to burn (or redeem) your rewards with suggestions from the award explorer tool.

The app is great for all levels of points and miles enthusiasts, beginners and avid travelers alike. Those newer to points and miles are sure to find value in the ability to get the latest news straight from TPG on the homepage of the app. Some will find the points tab most useful for keeping track of balances across different loyalty programs, while others will use the cards tab to remind them about various perks on their cards and help choose the card that gives the most value for every purchase.

By joining the waitlist today, you won't have to wait until the public launch to start using the app's features. You can start maximizing your points and miles sooner rather than later.

How to sign up for the waitlist

It's incredibly simple to sign up for the TPG App waitlist: just click here and enter your email.

That's it.

When it's your turn, you'll receive an invitation to download and begin using the app — ahead of our public launch later in the summer.

Note that the TPG App will only be available for iOS devices initially. However, we are working on Android version for the future, so those users can join the Android-specific waitlist at this link.

Bottom line

Invites to download the TPG App are starting to go out today — and they'll continue to launch over the next several weeks. However, it's not too late to join the waitlist now and get access to the app before it becomes available to everyone later this summer.

Perfect for new and experienced points-and-miles enthusiasts, the TPG App has something for everyone.

Don't miss out on early access — join the waitlist today!
