Flexible Rewards Points

There is only one major credit card rewards program that earns flexible points transferable to hotel rewards programs: American Express Membership Rewards.

AMEX Membership Rewards

American Express Membership Rewards points can be transferred to Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors, and Choice Privileges. This means you can earn points through intro bonuses and everyday spending across Membership Rewards credit cards and transfer those points to these partners when you need to.

This gives you a lot more flexibility than co-branded credit cards since you will not be stuck earning rewards with a single program.

These are the credit cards you can use to earn Membership Rewards points:
