Want to boost your miles and points balances *without* spending more? Then listen up! Transfer bonuses are your secret weapon. Basically, these are limited-time promotions where you get extra miles or points when you transfer your flexible points (like Amex Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, or Capital One Miles) to specific airline or hotel loyalty programs. Think of it this way: instead of a 1:1 transfer (1,000 Amex points = 1,000 airline miles), you might get a 1:1.2 or even 1:1.3 transfer. That means 1,000 Amex points becomes 1,200 or 1,300 airline miles! These bonuses can seriously accelerate your award travel goals, helping you snag that dream vacation faster. Why does this matter to you? Because these bonuses are usually only around for a short period, and knowing about them can save you serious points in the long run. AwardWallet Blog keeps a running list of all the active transfer bonuses. So, before you transfer any points, always check to see if a bonus is available for your desired program. You could be leaving free miles on the table!
