Wells Fargo Adds Cathay Pacific as Transfer Partner
Wells Fargo continues to make a name for itself in the transferrable currency rewards game. The credit card issuer today announced the addition of Cathay Pacific to its Rewards Points Transfer program.
Starting today, Wells Fargo credit cardholders can link their Cathay membership to eligible Wells Fargo credit cards and transfer points to Cathay Pacific Asia Miles at a 1:1 transfer ratio. There is no minimum balance required and no waiting period to redeem.
Cathay Pacific is Wells Fargo’s first transfer partner predominantly serving Asia, significantly increasing the geographic reach of the Wells Fargo Rewards travel partner network.
Asia Miles can be redeemed for flight awards, upgrades, and companion tickets on Cathay Pacific and its airline partners, offering access to popular destinations such as Hong Kong, the Chinese mainland, Southeast Asia, Australia and more. When redeeming on Cathay Pacific, customers can look forward to the airline’s award-winning experiences, recently recognized as the number two airline in the world by AirlineRatings, and World’s Best Economy and World’s Best Inflight Entertainment by Skytrax.
The addition of Cathay Pacific as a 1:1 transfer partner is also timely as American Express cut its transfer rate to 5:4 in March. However, keep in mind that there’s a devaluation coming soon. So transfer points and book now before changes go into effect.
Through the Wells Fargo Rewards Points Transfer program, cardholders can transfer points to Wells Fargo’s growing list of airline and hotel loyalty partners, helping maximize the value of their rewards. Just recently Wells Fargo added Wyndham Rewards as 1:2 transfer partner.
The Wells Fargo Rewards Points Transfer program is available for all Wells Fargo credit cards that earn rewards points, including the Autograph® and Autograph Journey credit cards. Go here for more information on how to link your rewards account and start transferring points.
