Terms of Use

The terms for using our travel research, comparisons and planning tools.

Effective October 18, 2026 · Last updated October 18, 2026

About these terms

Volcanic Unicorn Travel is operated by Volcanic Unicorn LLC. These terms apply to our website and tools, including volcanicunicorn.com and our hosted website. By using the site, you agree to these terms to the extent enforceable under applicable law. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

The site provides educational information for adults. We do not act as your travel agent, bank, lender, airline or financial, tax or legal adviser. We do not issue tickets, process credit card applications or manage loyalty accounts.

Research & estimates

Award prices, cash-fare estimates, routes, transfer ratios, welcome bonuses and program rules can change or contain errors. Our researched examples are not live inventory, guaranteed offers or booking quotes. Low Price and Broader Availability describe researched price ranges; they do not establish availability on particular dates or for a particular number of travelers.

Estimated fees, cents-per-point values, equivalent balances and preferred-option rankings are planning calculations based on stated assumptions. They are not cash redemption promises, appraisals, guarantees of savings or a complete comparison of every product or flight. Standard transfer calculations may omit bonuses, minimums, increments, fees and card-specific restrictions. See our Methodology.

Your booking decisions

  • Confirm dates, traveler count, operating airline, cabin, connections, total miles and cash charges with the booking provider.
  • Verify award seats and transfer terms before moving points. Transfers may be irreversible, and seats may disappear while they process.
  • Review fare rules, cancellation penalties, passport, visa, entry and transit requirements with the appropriate provider or authority.
  • For credit cards, verify eligibility, welcome bonus conditions, spending requirements, annual fees, rates and all issuer terms before applying. Approval and bonus eligibility are not guaranteed.

You are responsible for purchases, applications, transfers and bookings you choose to make. Contact the relevant provider for changes, refunds, account support or disputes.

External providers & compensation

External websites, offers and services are controlled by their providers. Their terms and privacy policies apply when you use them. Links do not guarantee availability, quality, safety or suitability.

We may receive cash, points or other rewards from qualifying activity through credit card, hotel and award-search links. Our site does not include every available offer, and a linked offer may differ from another public or targeted offer. Read our Affiliate Disclosure and Privacy Policy.

Permitted use

You may use the site for lawful personal planning and share links or brief attributed excerpts. Do not bypass access controls, probe or disrupt systems, introduce harmful code, impersonate another person, or use automated access that materially burdens the service. Do not republish or commercially redistribute substantial parts of our research, datasets, branding or tools without permission, except as allowed by law.

We may limit access when reasonably necessary for security, misuse prevention, maintenance or legal compliance.

Content & feedback

Our original content, software and branding belong to Volcanic Unicorn LLC or its licensors. Bank, airline and other third-party names, logos and materials belong to their respective owners. Their appearance does not imply approval or sponsorship beyond a relationship expressly disclosed.

You retain ownership of feedback or corrections you send. You allow us to use non-confidential suggestions to improve the site without payment. We will handle personal information under our Privacy Policy; this permission does not authorize publication of private correspondence or personal details without an appropriate basis.

Availability & warranties

To the extent permitted by law, the site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, uninterrupted access, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. We may correct, modify or remove content and tools. We do not guarantee that an offer checker will find the highest available bonus or that its latest attempt will succeed.

Liability & legal rights

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Volcanic Unicorn LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential or special losses arising from use of the site, including lost award seats, points value, expected savings or travel opportunities.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded, including applicable protections concerning fraud, willful misconduct or other non-waivable rights. Consumer protections and remedies available under applicable law remain in effect. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply where lawful.

Please first contact us about a site-related concern so we can try to resolve it. These terms do not require arbitration or waive class-action rights.

Changes & contact

We may update these terms prospectively by publishing a revised version and effective date. Material changes will be identified on the site where appropriate. Continued use after changes take effect is subject to the revised terms to the extent permitted by law.
