Quick Overview
- United transfer partners include over 10 programs that allow you to transfer rewards directly to United MileagePlus, converting them into United miles.
- United’s major U.S. credit card transfer partners are Chase Ultimate Rewards and Bilt Rewards, both offering a 1:1 transfer to United.
- Transferring rewards from Chase and Bilt is one of the quickest ways to earn United miles through intro bonuses and everyday spending.
