☆ Capital One miles just became even more valuable with improved transfer ratios
▼ + stars: | 2021-10-07 | by ( Julian Kheel | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +5 min

Over the last several years, Capital One has committed significant resources toward making its credit card miles competitive with other heavyweights in the industry. Starting Oct. 7, all but two of Capital One’s airline and hotel partners will transfer at a 1-to-1 ratio. British Airways is one of six airline loyalty programs that will now transfer from Capital One at a 1-to-1 ratio. By moving the bulk of its partners to a 1-to-1 transfer ratio, Capital One miles are now comparable to Chase Ultimate Rewards and American Express Membership Rewards, both of which transfer to most of their partners at a 1-to-1 ratio. If you don’t have a Capital One credit card, the Capital One Venture currently comes with a sign-up bonus that can put a chunk of miles in your pocket fairly quickly.

Previously, some partners had a transfer ratio of 2 Capital One miles to 1 or 1.5 airline miles. Now almost all partners offer a 1:1 transfer ratio, which can get you more value from your miles. Starting today, almost every Capital One airline and hotel partner will offer a 1:1 transfer ratio, with the exception of Accor and Eva Air. Previously, some of the best transfer partners, including British Airways, Air Canada Aeroplan, Turkish Airlines, and Singapore Airlines, had a transfer ratio of 2 Capital One miles to 1 or 1.5 airline miles. Capital One miles transfer ratio improvementCapital One currently partners with 17 airline and hotel loyalty programs.

Then, we also want to add the Citi Double Cash Card, the Citi Custom Cash Card and the Citi Rewards+ Card to complete the group. Citi Premier Card: The key to transfersUse the Citi Premier card to transfer your ThankYou points to Citi's airline partners for the best redemptions. And when you combine the Citi Rewards+ with other Citi ThankYou credit cards, this rebate includes all points redeemed from your combined ThankYou account. There’s one caveat to those looking to apply for the Citi Rewards+ card at the same time as the Citi Premier. Citi only allows you to apply for one Citi card every eight days, and a maximum of two Citi cards every 65 days.

The Citi Premier earns Citi ThankYou points, making it part of the family of Citi cards that also earn ThankYou points, which includes the Citi Rewards+® Card and the no-longer-available Citi Prestige Card. So if you open a Citi Rewards+ card, you won’t be able to also get the sign-up bonus on the Citi Premier card until 24 months have elapsed. And since the Citi Premier offers a much higher sign-up bonus — four times as high as the Citi Rewards+ card — and better rewards, you’ll want to make sure to apply for the Citi Premier card first. Comparing the Citi Premier and Chase Sapphire PreferredBoth the Citi Premier and the Chase Sapphire Preferred have $95 annual fees, so they’re comparable in cost. While the Chase Sapphire Preferred remains our favorite first travel credit card, the Citi Premier is an underrated contender, and should definitely be the first Citi card on your list.
