To transfer your Chase Ultimate Rewards points to high-fidelity travel partners in 2026, you must hold a "Premium" card like the Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve, or Ink Business Preferred. First, log in to the Chase mobile app or website and navigate to the "Rewards" dashboard. Select "Transfer to Travel Partners." You will see a list of over a dozen high-fidelity airlines and hotels, including United, Southwest, Hyatt, and British Airways. It is a high-fidelity requirement to link your partner loyalty account (e.g., your Hyatt member number) to your Chase account before the first transfer. Once linked, you can transfer points in increments of 1,000 at a 1:1 ratio. Most high-fidelity transfers are instantaneous, but some may take up to 48 hours. Always check for "High-Fidelity" transfer bonuses, as Chase occasionally offers 25-30% extra miles when moving points to specific partners like Virgin Atlantic or Marriott, providing a high-fidelity boost to your travel redemptions.
