What are the best Hilton credit card partners for earning points?
AMEX is the best transfer partner for earning Hilton Honors points in the UK. You can also earn a decent amount of points using Virgin Atlantic.
AMEX Membership Rewards credit cards
American Express Membership Rewards points can be transferred to Hilton Honors at a 1:2 ratio. Every 1,000 AMEX points you transfer will give you 2,000 Hilton Honors points.
With AMEX credit cards, you'll earn anywhere from 1X to 3X Membership Rewards points on your purchases which is equivalent to earning 2X to 6X Hilton Honors points. You can also enjoy complimentary Hilton Honors Gold status with AMEX's personal and business Platinum cards.
Virgin Atlantic credit cards
Virgin Atlantic Flying Club points can be transferred to Hilton Honors at a 2:3 ratio. Every 2,000 Virgin points you transfer to Hilton will give you 3,000 Hilton Honors points.
Virgin Atlantic credit cards earn up to 3X Virgin points on purchases which is equal to 4.5X Hilton Honors points. It's not as good as the Membership Rewards program, but can still be a solid alternative if you frequently fly Virgin Atlantic and have a need to pick up one of their rewards cards.
Here are the credit cards that earn Virgin points:
