Chase Ultimate Rewards Adds Wyndham Rewards as New Transfer Partner
The Chase Ultimate Rewards program has added Wyndham Rewards as your fourth hotel transfer partner and 14th overall.
Ultimate Rewards members can now transfer their points to Wyndham Rewards at a 1:1 ratio, meaning 1,000 Chase points would convert to 1,000 Wyndham points. Chase advises that most transfers to Wyndham Rewards will be processed the next business day; however, in our evidence from other transfer partnersMost Ultimate Rewards point transfers are instant.
You must transfer a minimum of 1,000 Chase points in 1,000-point increments, and remember that transfers cannot be reversed.
Should you transfer your Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Wyndham Rewards?
In our February 2026 ratings In terms of points and miles, TPG values Chase points at 2.05 cents each, while it values Wyndham points at just 1.1 cents each, one of the lowest valuations of any of Chase’s 14 airline and hotel partners.
That’s because Wyndham Rewards doesn’t have the same caliber of luxury properties as Hyatt and Marriott, allowing you to save thousands of dollars in cash prices for relatively few points.

However, the Wyndham program at least use a simple reward tableand properties typically require 7,500, 15,000 or 30,000 points per night.
Take the Balfour Miami Beach, a Registry Collection hotel in Florida, for example. You can book a night for 30,000 points, which seems like a great deal considering the programs with dynamic pricing now they are loading More than 200,000 points per night for your best properties.
However, with cash rates of less than $300 per night for the same room on the same night (depending on terms and conditions), you may struggle to achieve even 1.1 cents per Wyndham Rewards point redeemed at this property.
Still, there are times when Chase to Wyndham transfers could make sense.
TPG Senior Editorial Director Nick Ewen You recently earned almost 3 cents per point by redeeming Wyndham Rewards points for a suite in Iguazu Falls, Brazil, and senior writer. Katie Genter It also achieved 3 cents per point on a swap in Adelaide, Australia, during a high-demand school holiday period.
The trick to getting good value from your Wyndham Rewards points (whether transferred from Chase Ultimate Rewards or not) is to look for dates with high cash rates, such as major holidays and peak travel periods, when locking in redemptions for up to 30,000 points per night could be a good value instead of paying cash.
In a nutshell
While it’s always encouraging to see a program with a transferable currency add a new transfer partner, especially with an easy-to-remember 1:1 transfer ratio, the latest Chase Ultimate Rewards option is unlikely to radically change many points and miles redemption strategies.
There may be circumstances where you can get more than 1 cent per point from your Chase points by transferring them to Wyndham Rewards, although remember you can get similar value by booking through Journey to Chase no need to worry about transfer times or finding prize availability, and even greater value when accessing the Chase Points Boost Feature.
