Transfer Rates from Membership Rewards

[futaris]

Can someone please confirm the transfer rates from MR ???

HHonors: 1000 per 1000 MR
Priority Club: 600 per 1000 MR
Starwood: 330 per 1000 MR

Maybe we should have a sticky in this forum with this information?

Yes you transfer rates look OK.

For confirmation look at Ascent Membership Rewards.

Thanks. I just found that link in another post.

American Express Australia - Membership Rewards Ascent

The only program giving bonuses at the moment, is Velocity, right?

Also, Choices says that being a member since 1996-2000 gives a 5% discount. Does this apply for Ascent members too?

 

[JohnK]

Not sure. I don't think membership rewards points while enrolled in Choices can be transferred to FF programs or hotel loyalty programs.

Unless of course you transfer to Ascent in which all your MR points from Choices transfer across to Ascent.

Shame the rate is so low for Australian Membership Rewards -> Starwood . It would be nice if there was a credit card in Australia that gave 1:1 like Starwood Preferred Guest in the US.
