Membership perks change quietly. Somebody should be writing it down.

AloPerks is a two-person tracking desk in Kraków. We read the terms and conditions of loyalty and membership programs, log every change we can verify, and send one digest email a month. No push alerts, no daily deals, no noise.

The perk board

Every card is a perk we have checked against the program's own published terms. Dates tell you when we last confirmed it. Programs named here are the ones our readers ask about most.

Railchanged 12 Sep
Vistula Rail Club, Silver tier

Two free seat reservations every month

Previously one. The extra reservation applies to any domestic route and does not roll over to the next month. Gold tier keeps unlimited reservations.

checked 12 Sep 2026terms v.14
Travelends 30 Sep
Northline Air Circle
21days

Left on the status match window

Send a screenshot of an equivalent tier from another airline program and Northline mirrors it for twelve months. After 30 September the desk expects the usual two-flight qualification instead.

Caféschanged 11 Sep
Bean & Bind Coffee Card

Free cup moves from the tenth to the twelfth stamp

Cards stamped before 1 October are honoured at ten. If you are on stamp seven or higher, finish the card this month.

Retailends 31 Oct
Cloth Loop membership

Free alterations are being withdrawn

The member perk that covered hemming and simple repairs ends on 31 October. Garments dropped off before that date are still altered at no charge. The desk has asked whether a paid tier will replace it and will report back.

I only found out my coworking membership included printing credits because your August issue mentioned it. Two years of paying per page.

Riverbank Pools, season card

Season card includes one free swimming lesson a quarter

Not advertised at the counter. Ask at reception with your card number; lessons run on weekday mornings.

checked 04 Sep 2026terms section 6.2
Travelstable
Hostel Line Rewards

Every seventh night is free, and it now counts partial stays

One-night stays used to be excluded from the count. Since June, any booked night counts, which shortens the path noticeably for weekend travellers.

checked 02 Sep 2026terms v.8
Retailstable
Pantry Card, grocery
90days

Points expiry window, up from 60

A quiet improvement from May that the program never announced. We noticed it in the revised terms during a routine reread.

Kraków Public Libraries, reader card

Digital audiobook loans doubled to six at a time

The loan period stays at 21 days. Holds no longer count against the limit.

Railstable
Night Line sleeper pass

Pass holders can change a booking free of charge up to 2 hours before departure

Non-members pay a change fee. This applies to the cabin class you booked; upgrades are still charged at the difference.

Could you check whether the tea house card on Floriańska still gives the free refill? The sign is gone but the staff still do it.

How an entry gets onto the board

Four steps, in this order, for every single line. If a step fails, the entry waits.

  1. Read the primary source

    We work from the program's own terms, member portal or written notice. Forum posts and screenshots from strangers are leads, not evidence.

  2. Compare with the last saved copy

    Each program has a dated archive of its terms at the desk. A change is only a change if the two documents differ.

  3. Confirm it in practice

    Where we can, one of us tests the perk or asks the program in writing. The board says how each entry was confirmed.

  4. Publish once a month

    Verified entries go into the Perks Digest on the first Tuesday of the month. Time-critical endings appear on this page as soon as they are confirmed.

The Perks Digest

One email, once a month, with the changes that survived the four steps above. It is written by the two of us, in plain English, and it is the only email this desk sends.

  • What changed last month, program by program
  • Perks that are ending, with the last date to use them
  • One perk we think is undervalued, explained properly

About the desk

AloPerks started in 2024 as a shared spreadsheet between two friends in Kraków who kept losing perks they had already paid for: a rail discount that lapsed, a museum pass with a guest rule nobody mentioned, a coffee card whose stamps quietly stopped counting.

The spreadsheet became a habit, the habit became a monthly email to a few dozen people, and the email became this desk. We still run it from a small office off the Main Square. We are not affiliated with any of the programs we track, we do not sell placement on the board, and we do not take commissions from anyone named here.

If you know of a perk change we have missed, or you run a program and think we have read your terms wrong, write to contact@aloperks.com. Corrections get published in the next issue.
