rewrite this title Chase Points Now Transfer to Wyndham, but Better Options Exist – NerdWallet

You can now move Chase Ultimate Rewards® points to Wyndham Rewards — but it’s generally not a good option.

Beginning Feb. 25, 2026, eligible Chase cardholders can transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards® points to Wyndham at a 1:1 ratio. This addition makes Wyndham the 14th transfer partner for Chase Ultimate Rewards®, and the first new partner since Chase added Air Canada Aeroplan in 2021.

While more options are always good, transferring Chase points to Wyndham likely only makes sense in a few cases.

If you only get 0.7 cent per point with Wyndham, you’d be better off redeeming your Chase Ultimate Rewards® points for cash back at 1 cent per point and using those funds to pay for your stay. In addition to being a better value for your points, this will also let you earn more points when you use your credit card to book.

But transferring Chase points to Wyndham can make sense if:

Despite the low average valuation, the Wyndham Rewards program does have some notable features. My personal favorite is the simple three-tier award chart, where you’ll pay either 7,500 points, 15,000 points or 30,000 points per bedroom per night. There’s no dynamic pricing, making it easy to plan a future redemption. Wyndham also generally doesn’t charge those pesky resort fees on free nights, which can lead to some real savings.

Additionally, points can be redeemed at over 9,000 hotels, vacation club resorts and rentals worldwide, providing a broad footprint to book award stays. While most of Wyndham’s portfolio includes budget hotels like Days Inn and Super 8, that’s substantially more options than the approximately 1,400 properties you’ll find with World of Hyatt, Chase’s most valuable transfer partner.

You need to top off your account. Transferring Chase points to Wyndham could also make sense if you need to top off your account for an award stay. For example, if you already have 10,000 Wyndham points and you’re looking at a stay that costs 15,000 points, that could be a good time to transfer 5,000 Chase points to Wyndham.

Chase Ultimate Rewards® was named NerdWallet’s best credit card points program for travel in 2026. That’s largely due to the ability to get outsized value for your points through Chase’s transfer partners.
