Our Verdict
eBay/Whole Foods might be an attractive option for some people. Most people will find that they can get more than 1.11¢ per point in value though.
If all I have is a chase freedom card, is there any other way to get more than 1 CPP besides this?
Thanks DOC. Got $100 ebay & $75 ebay coming my way.
I’m new to Ultimate Rewards…
Correct me if I’m wrong guys.. but the best way to get the most value out of UR points is to transfer them to United MileagePlus William Charles ?
I find Hyatt to one of the best redemptions but varies by best personal use.
Agreed with Josh. Always look at what the redemption cost is, and what partners you could actually use (vs Chase portal). The number of points only matters as much as it costs to use them.
Assuming you have the CSR (not the CSP) and redeem through the Chase Portal, I almost always find United domestic flights to be way less points when booking through the Portal. Plus, you’ll even earn Mileageplus miles since United sees it as a cash transaction. The only transfer partner I really use is Hyatt.
YMMV based on your travel goals, by usually transferring to a travel partner is the best value but YMMV as mentioned.
I don’t see Best Buy as an option
