Chase’s latest promotion means you can receive bonus Marriott Bonvoy points when converting your Ultimate Rewards points to the hotel’s loyalty program.

Until August 15, 2025, you can get a 50% bonus when you transfer your Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Marriott Bonvoy.

While a 50% bonus may appear great at first, there’s more to consider before making a transfer — especially since we’ve seen better offers in the past. Let’s investigate.

Is It Worth It?

Now, through August 15, 2025, you can get 50% more Marriott Bonvoy points when transferred from Chase Ultimate Rewards.

First and foremost, here’s a reminder of the valuations we assign to the points in each program:

Chase Ultimate Rewards points: 2 cents per point
Marriott Bonvoy points: 0.7 cents per point

The usual transfer ratio is 1:1, but with the 50% bonus, that increases to 1:1.5.

Consider a transfer of 100,000 Ultimate Rewards points. You’d get 150,000 Marriott Bonvoy points with this bonus. Considering the value of those amounts, you’d be swapping $2,000 worth of Chase points for just $1,050 worth of Marriott Bonvoy points — 52.5% less value!

However, there are occasions where booking some properties using Marriott Bonvoy points transferred from Ultimate Rewards would equate to significant savings.

If you were already planning a Marriott stay and were deciding whether to use cash or points, compare the cash cost against the points cost of your stay using the valuations above.

Once you’ve done that, factor in the bonus points you’d get if you transferred from your Ultimate Rewards account. If you end up saving money after all of that, then it would be worth using this 50% bonus promotion.

You’ll see the transfer bonus listed clearly on Chase’s transfer page, outlining the transfer rate and end date. Note that it can also take up to 2 days for your Chase Ultimate Rewards points to transfer to Marriott Bonvoy.
