Now through <strong>May 15, 2026<\/strong>, you\u2019ll get 1,650 Marriott points for every 1,000 Chase points you transfer. Then, you'll get a 55% transfer bonus from May 16 to June 30, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s always nice to see a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/news\/credit-card-transfer-bonuses\/\" rel=\"noopener\">transfer bonus<\/a>, Marriott Bonvoy is one of Chase\u2019s less valuable transfer partners. In most cases, transferring Ultimate Rewards points to Marriott won\u2019t be the best use of your points compared to other redemption options.<\/p>\n<p>That said, there are still a few situations where this bonus could be worth considering. Here\u2019s when it might make sense.<\/p>\n<div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"toc_light_blue no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Page Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#Transfer_Chase_Points_to_Marriott_Bonvoy_With_a_65_Bonus\">Transfer Chase Points to Marriott Bonvoy With a 65% Bonus<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Chase_to_Marriott_Bonvoy_Transfer_Bonus_History\">Chase to Marriott Bonvoy Transfer Bonus History<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Credit_Card_Offers_for_More_Marriott_Bonvoy_Points\">Credit Card Offers for More Marriott Bonvoy Points<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Is_It_Worth_Transferring_Ultimate_Rewards_Points_to_Marriott\">Is It Worth Transferring Ultimate Rewards Points to Marriott?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Our_Take\">Our Take<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n<h2><span id=\"Transfer_Chase_Points_to_Marriott_Bonvoy_With_a_65_Bonus\">Transfer Chase Points to Marriott Bonvoy With a 65% Bonus<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Chase Ultimate Rewards points typically transfer to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/marriott-bonvoy\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Marriott Bonvoy<\/a> at a 1:1 ratio. With this promotion, you\u2019ll get a 65% bonus, meaning 1,000 Chase points will become 1,650 Marriott points if you transfer your points by May 15, 2026. Then, the transfer bonus will drop to 55% from May 16 to June 30, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>This is a better transfer bonus than we usually see between Chase and Marriott. But even with the extra 65%, it may not be worth jumping on for most travelers.<\/p>\n<p>Based on recent redemptions by AwardWallet users, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/point-mile-values\/marriott\" rel=\"noopener\">Marriott Bonvoy points have provided an average value of 0.93\u00a2 apiece<\/a>. With the transfer bonus, that works out to roughly $15.35 in value for every 1,000 Chase points you transfer, or about 1.53 cents per point. That\u2019s a reasonable redemption rate, but you can often get even more value by transferring your points to other Chase partners.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re considering this promotion, here\u2019s a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/credit-cards\/chase-ultimate-rewards\/how-to-transfer-chase-points\/\" rel=\"noopener\">step-by-step guide on how to transfer Chase points<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_260889\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"900\/598\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-260889 size-large lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Chase-to-Marriott-65-transfer-bonus-May-2026-900x598.png\" alt=\"Chase Ultimate Rewards Marriott transfer bonus details\" width=\"900\" height=\"598\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Chase-to-Marriott-65-transfer-bonus-May-2026-900x598.png 900w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Chase-to-Marriott-65-transfer-bonus-May-2026-750x498.png 750w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Chase-to-Marriott-65-transfer-bonus-May-2026-768x510.png 768w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Chase-to-Marriott-65-transfer-bonus-May-2026.png 1262w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><center><em>Screenshot of Ultimate Rewards<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Related: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/credit-cards\/chase-ultimate-rewards\/chase-transfer-partners\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Chase Transfer Partners: A Complete Guide to the Best Way to Redeem Ultimate Rewards<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Chase_to_Marriott_Bonvoy_Transfer_Bonus_History\">Chase to Marriott Bonvoy Transfer Bonus History<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Including this new offer, Chase has run a Marriott Bonvoy transfer bonus more than a dozen times since early 2021.
