United is offering a 25% bonus when transferring hotel points to United. Since most hotel programs offer poor transfer ratios to miles, this isn’t an especially exciting deal, but it could be useful for some, especially when stacking with other deals (such as a Wyndham promo that I’ll post about shortly).
The Deal
- You must register for this offer first. The registration link can be found here.
- The offer is available through October 31, 2025
- Maximum bonus miles = 25,000
- For transfers of Marriott Bonvoy points into MileagePlus miles, the standard offer of a 10,000 miles bonus for every 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points transferred shall be excluded when calculating the Bonus Miles for this offer.
- Bonus miles will be credited into the member’s account on or before January 31, 2026.
Quick Thoughts
It’s rarely a good deal to convert hotel points to airline miles. While the 25% bonus helps somewhat, it doesn’t significantly alter the overall math. That said, if you were going to transfer to United anyway, then this is the time to do it. Just make sure to register first!
