All BetMGM points convert to Marriott at a 1:1 ratio, which means one BetMGM point becomes one Marriott Bonvoy point. Here's how you do it:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Log in to your BetMGM account.<\/li>\n<li>Select &#8220;Account Details.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;My Rewards.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;Quick Links.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Select &#8220;Rewards Store.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Hit &#8220;Marriott.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Select &#8220;Convert.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Note that this process can't be done in reverse; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/marriott-bonvoy\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Marriott Bonvoy<\/a> points cannot be transferred over to BetMGM. Once the transaction is completed, you also aren't able to undo it, so you'll want to be certain that this redemption makes sense for you.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_To_Earn_BetMGM_Points\">How To Earn BetMGM Points<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>BetMGM points are earned via making wagers through BetMGM, though the amount you'll earn is going to depend on many factors, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your elite status level with MGM<\/li>\n<li>Wager type<\/li>\n<li>Odds<\/li>\n<li>Jurisdiction<\/li>\n<li>The game you're playing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span id=\"Is_It_Worth_Converting_BetMGM_Points_to_Marriott_Bonvoy\">Is It Worth Converting BetMGM Points to Marriott Bonvoy?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can now convert those BetMGM points over to Marriott Bonvoy, but is that actually a good idea? One BetMGM point is equivalent to 1\u00a2 and can generally be used as a cash comp to cover redemptions with MGM.<\/p>\n<p>However, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/point-mile-values\" rel=\"noopener\">recent AwardWallet user redemptions<\/a> peg a Marriott Bonvoy point at just 0.93\u00a2 each, which means you'll be losing value by converting your points to Marriott.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, there are still some cases where it can make sense to transfer your points. If you have a ton of points, it may not matter to you to lose that little bit of value. BetMGM rewards points also expire after six months of inactivity, so if you've stopped playing or have no use for those points, converting them to Marriott can be a better idea than losing them entirely.<\/p>\n<p>It also can make sense to transfer your points for high-value Marriott redemptions. While the average value is just 0.93\u00a2 each, it's definitely possible to get outsized value from your Marriott points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/marriott-bonvoy\/top-luxury-marriott-redemptions\/\" rel=\"noopener\">The Best Marriott Bonvoy Luxury Redemptions<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here's an example of a one-night stay at the St. Regis Bora Bora, which will run you 124,000 points for the night:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_155249\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"749\/228\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-155249 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-300x91.png\" alt=\"Award pricing for the hotel being discussed\" width=\"749\" height=\"228\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-300x91.png 300w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-1024x312.png 1024w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-768x234.png 768w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-1536x467.png 1536w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-award-rate-2048x623.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><center><em>Credit: Marriott<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<p>That same stay would otherwise cost you 420,405 XPF, or roughly $3832.37.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_155251\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"749\/234\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-155251 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-300x94.png\" alt=\"cash cost of the booking being discussed\" width=\"749\" height=\"234\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-300x94.png 300w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-1024x320.png 1024w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-768x240.png 768w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-1536x480.png 1536w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/St.-Regis-Bora-Bora-cash-rate-2048x640.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><center><em>Credit: Marriott<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<p>In this case, you'll be getting a value of 3.09 cents per point.
