Guru’s Wrap-Up
This is great news from Capital One. It makes bonuses on these cards more useful and the cards themselves more valuable in the long run. Transferability generally offers the most flexibility, allowing you a few different redemption options, and give points a higher potential value. Until now, the only way to redeem these Capital One miles was to apply them as a statement credit against for travel purchases, with each mile worth 1¢.
Right now Capital One is offering increased bonuses on two of its miles cards, Venture 75K and Spark Miles 200K.
