Ready to transfer? Checklist

  1. Create the Choice Privileges account first, in exactly the same name as your Amex Membership Rewards account. Brand-new accounts are more likely to be held for review, so open it days ahead if you can.
  2. Find the award before you move anything. Search Choice Privileges's own site (or an award-search tool) and confirm the seat or room and the exact points needed, taxes included. Award space isn't the same as cash space.
  3. Move the exact amount in one go. Don't do a small "test" transfer: people report that test transfers trigger fraud holds. Expected time for this step: UP: 48 hours; TPG: instant.
  4. If it's slow, call. Some airlines can hold an award while points arrive. If a transfer is stuck, call the program; holds of several days happen, and points can't be moved back.

Tips from community reports: reddit.com · frequentmiler.com. Transfers are generally irreversible.
