Credit card transfer bonuses let you receive extra airline miles or hotel points when you transfer rewards from an eligible bank program. They can be a great way to reduce the number of credit card points needed for your next trip, but only if the promotion fits the redemption you already have in mind.
Below are the current transfer bonuses available from major transferable rewards programs, including American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, Capital One Miles, Citi ThankYou Rewards, and more.
We update this page throughout the month as new transfer bonuses are announced and existing promotions expire.

Before You Transfer Your Points
A transfer bonus doesn’t automatically make a transfer worthwhile.
Before moving your rewards, make sure you’ve found award availability and confirmed that the airline or hotel program works for your trip. In most cases, transfers from credit card rewards programs are one-way and cannot be reversed.
If you’re new to transfer bonuses, read our guide to What Is a Credit Card Transfer Bonus? to learn how they work and when they make sense to use.
How PointsYeah Helps
Transfer bonuses become much more useful when you can immediately see how they affect the cost of an award.
When a current transfer bonus applies to an eligible flight search, PointsYeah factors the promotion into the search results, making it easier to understand how many bank points you’ll actually need to complete the transfer.
Instead of calculating the bonus yourself, you can focus on comparing award options and deciding which redemption makes the most sense.
