Should I Transfer?

A transfer bonus looks great until you do the math. Here are the live ones — with the math, the verdict, and what breaks the deal.

Never transfer speculatively

We do not recommend transferring points unless you have a specific redemption in mind AND confirmed availability. Award charts, partner rosters, and dynamic pricing can shift before you book — and once points leave a flexible currency, they're stuck. Search availability, then transfer.
