Chase Ultimate Rewards Transfer Partners
Chase Ultimate Rewards transfer to a small but unusually strong set of partners. World of Hyatt is the reason most people choose Chase: Hyatt still publishes an award chart, and a category 4 hotel costs a fraction of its cash rate. United covers most of Star Alliance. The list is shorter than Amex or Capital One, and better.

The alliance column is what makes a partner useful beyond its own aircraft: miles in a Star Alliance program book Star Alliance metal, so one transfer can reach carriers you will never hold points with directly. Airline alliances explained →

What these points are worth
The 2.05¢ figure above is a starting default, not our calculation. It comes from The Points Guy's published valuations, used because a public, documented baseline is more useful than a number we invented. What a point is actually worth is whatever you redeem it for. Our methodology page draws that line and shows the arithmetic.

Before you transfer
- Transfers are one-way. Confirm award space before moving anything, and move only what the booking needs.
- Ratios are not all 1:1. The table above shows the real rate for each partner, and a handful have been devalued in recent years.
- Last verified September 13, 2026. Every row here was checked against multiple trade sources on that date. If it looks old to you, it is old, and this line says so rather than implying a cadence.
This page is a snapshot. The tracker keeps it current against what you actually hold. Points Commander tracks your balances across every program, counts down each card credit against its reset date, and plans award trips from the points you have. Free, no affiliate links, no bank login.
