SCORECARD

ExistenceFAILNo product API. The only machine-readable surface is a default WordPress RSS feed at /feed/.
AccessFAILNo access program exists; anyone can poll the public RSS feed, and nothing more is offered.
CoveragePOORRSS exposes post titles and bodies only; price, dates, and routes must be scraped from prose.
AuthFAILNo auth of any kind; mobile app endpoints are private and against the terms to touch.
Docs & DXFAILNo docs, schema, or field definitions even for the RSS feed; consumers regex-parse post titles.
StabilityMIXEDAggregators like Feedly and Zapier rely on the feed, but it has no SLA or schema versioning.
Supergood: Secret Flying isn't going to ship an API, so we did: stable endpoints, normalized JSON, managed auth.

SOURCES
No public API exists, so there are no API-specific complaints to surface, and there is no developer community to file them secretflying.com
The RSS feed at /feed/ is unofficial in the sense that it is a WordPress default rather than a supported product surface, there is no SLA, no schema versioning, and no documentation of fields (origin, destination, cabin class, expiration) so consumers must regex-parse post titles secretflying.com
Third-party scripts and community RunKit/Zapier notebooks have to scrape post bodies because the RSS feed does not expose structured fields like price, currency, valid travel dates, or affiliate-link target runkit.com
Mobile-app endpoints are not published or supported as a third-party API; any access would be reverse-engineering and against ToS secretflying.com
Affiliate program is operated through partner OTA networks (Skyscanner, Priceline, etc.), not through a Secret-Flying-branded developer/affiliate portal, publishers cannot programmatically pull deal feeds, member data, or click events into their own products godsavethepoints.com

Republishes other bloggers' deal discoveries without attribution, God Save The Points and other travel bloggers accuse Secret Flying of taking deals from The Flight Deal, Fly4Free, FlyerTalk threads, etc. and reposting under their own brand with affiliate links godsavethepoints.com
Affiliate links allegedly steer to booking partners that maximize Secret Flying's commission rather than the best price or most reliable issuer for the reader godsavethepoints.com
Some 'error fares' are mislabeled, what's called a mistake fare is actually a legitimate sale, which matters because mistake fares carry meaningful cancellation risk after booking godsavethepoints.com

Premium subscription auto-renewal not clearly disclosed, FAQ confirms auto-renewal is on by default and only cancellable through account settings secretflying.com
