Rules to know
There are a few rules to know about transferring Marriott Bonvoy points to another account:
- There is no charge to transfer Marriott Bonvoy points from one account to another.
- Each account must have been open for at least 30 days (with account activity such as earnings or point redemptions) or 90 days without activity.
- You can transfer up to 100,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per calendar year.
- A member can receive up to 500,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per calendar year.
- You must transfer a minimum of 1,000 points
- Maximum of 6 transfer transactions per calendar year, with a maximum of 2 transfer transactions per month. A transaction is defined as a member giving or receiving transferred points.
If a member reaches the maximum annual limit of 6 transactions before reaching the maximum points limit (100,000) to be given or received, he or she will not be able to make any transactions until the following calendar year.
If the member reaches the monthly transaction limit, he/she will be able to make transactions in the following calendar month, unless he/she has also reached the annual transaction or points limit. So calculate your transfers carefully!
