Chase Ultimate Rewards allows members to combine their points between online by transferring from one account to another one. The reason you’d want to take advantage of this, is if you have points from either the Chase Freedom or the Chase Freedom Unlimited and you want to transfer to hotel or airline partners.
Normally, you wouldn’t be allowed to transfer them, however if you have a Ultimate Rewards earning card such as the Chase Sapphire, Sapphire Reserve or Chase Ink cards, you could then move your points to one of these accounts and take advantage of transferring to your hotel or airline partner of choice.

Terms and Conditions: You can move your points, but only to another Chase card with Ultimate Rewards belonging to you, or one member of your household. If we suspect that you’ve engaged in fraudulent activity related to your credit card account or Ultimate Rewards, or that you’ve misused Ultimate Rewards in any way (for example by buying or selling points, moving or transferring points with or to an ineligible third party or account, or repeatedly opening or otherwise maintaining credit card accounts for the sole purpose of generating rewards) we may temporarily prohibit you from earning points or using points you’ve already earned. If we believe you’ve engaged in any of these acts, we’ll close your credit card account and you’ll lose all your points.
In order to take advantage of transferring points to redeem for the airline and hotel partners, you must have a Ultimate Rewards earning card in your account.

Here’s my question…
I have the Preferred, Ink Plus and Freedom
My wife has the Reserve and Freedom.
Is there any good reason for me to keep the Preferred? Will I still be able to transfer points around without it? Or is that a must have to transfer my points to my wife’s accounts and vice versa?
Thanks
@Patrick, I would assume you need to keep the Preferred or a Sapphire open on your accounts to move the points around. Especially from the Freedom. But…I’m not that familiar with the Ink card.
Good post
I’m an AU on my DIL’s Ink. She lives in a home I own but do not live in. Would it be acceptable per Chase for her to transfer UR to my Reserve account?
