    Current Credit Card Transfer Bonuses: Amex, Chase, Capital One, Citi, and More

    Thinking about transferring your credit card points?

    Every so often, banks run promotions that give you more airline miles or hotel points when you transfer from an eligible credit card rewards program. Instead of receiving the usual number of miles or points, you might receive 20%, 50%, or even more than that.

    Below you’ll find every current transfer bonus from the major transferable credit card rewards programs, along with each offer’s expiration date.

    Before You Transfer Your Points

    It can be tempting to see a 30% credit card transfer bonus and think there’s no better time to transfer points.

    Maybe. But pause for a second.

    Find the flight or hotel you want first. Use PointsYeah to compare your booking options across several loyalty programs. Then, if a transfer bonus helps lower the number of credit card points you’ll need, it’s time to make the transfer.

    Once your points become airline miles or hotel points, you can’t move them back.

    And transferring without a plan can potentially leave you with a balance that’s much harder to use than the credit card points you started with.

    Historical Transfer Bonuses

    Transfer bonuses rarely follow a set schedule. Some loyalty programs run promotions several times a year, while others may go months without offering another one.
