Guru’s Wrap-Up
Even with this 40% bonus, transferring Membership Rewards points to the Hilton Honors program will not make sense for most people. Hilton points are often valued at 0.4 cents or less, so this will give you a value of just over one cent for your Membership Rewards. That’s not the best use of your Amex points.
You could use this promotion if you need some more Hilton points towards a redemption, or to keep your Hilton points from expiring. Hilton is also selling points with a 100% bonus, which gives you a price of 0.5 cents per point. Usually the best way to rack up lots of Hilton points is to go for one of the American Express Hilton Credit cards.
