Get a 20%transfer bonus when
you transfer Citi ThankYou to Wyndham Rewards.
Citi Strata Premier and Citi Prestige cardholders (the only cards in the ThankYou program that enable transferable points) can get a 20% bonus when transferring their ThankYou points to Wyndham Rewards.
Wyndham isn’t a super popular program on its own, but there is value to be found.
You can book not just Wyndham brand hotels but also Caesars Rewards properties. Wyndham does have some very nice properties but you do have to hunt. The Dolce Collection is one.
You can book Vacassa vacation rentals (however, only by phone, at 15,000 points per bedroom if the per bedroom equivalent price is under $250 or 30,000 points per night if the rate is over $250 and under $500). All rates are inclusive of any taxes and fees. Â You’re getting 1.67 cents per point if perfectly maxed out and with this 20 percent bonus you would be getting 2 cents per ThankYou point in value. Not bad.
You can transfer points directly to Caesars Rewards (the better way to book Caesars since if you are Diamond and book directly, you won’t pay resort fees). This would give you 1.2 cents each. And if your Wyndham points are close to expiration, this could be a good move since they hard expire after 4 years (cannot be extended), but a transfer would reset that.
