Why do Transfer Bonuses?

• Easy way to boost points without spending extra money

What You Need to Know:

• You will need to have a membership with the program you are transferring to (ie. you need a Virgin account to transfer to Virgin)

• Be sure to have a plan in mind or else you won’t know how many points to transfer out.

• Try to book the flight or hotel right after transferring.

• Most transfers from credit cards are instant but some can take up to 48 hours.

• Be sure to know any surcharges or fees when booking with points in advance so you don’t get surprised at checkout.
