How to Transfer Bilt Points to World of Hyatt

The transfer at a glance

The multiples, minimums, timing, linking rule and name rule come from Bilt's transfer partner terms. The January ratio is reported by AwardWallet (Oct 1, 2026), reporting a Bilt notice. Bilt's terms still show 1:1 and by NerdWallet. The Points Guy reported in 2024 that Bilt doesn't charge a transfer fee. Bilt's terms don't mention one, according to The Points Guy (Jul 31, 2024).

A reported ratio change on January 1, 2027

AwardWallet and NerdWallet report that Bilt notified members of a move from 1:1 to 4:3 on January 1, 2027, including Palladium. Bilt's transfer terms and the partner list still show 1:1. If that report is right, the same night would cost a third more Bilt points after the date, and a transfer made before it keeps today's rate because the points sit in your Hyatt account.

Transfers are final, so move points early only for a stay you're confident you'll book.

Minimums depend on your status

Bilt Blue members must transfer at least 2,000 points at a time; Silver, Gold and Platinum members at least 1,000 (Bilt terms). Bilt transfers only to a partner account that belongs to you and is in your own name. Unlike Chase, there's no household option, so each person transfers from their own Bilt account.

How to transfer, step by step

1. Find the award night on Hyatt first, at the price you want.
2. Make a free World of Hyatt account in your own name if you don't have one.
3. In the Bilt app, open your points and choose to transfer to a partner.
4. Pick World of Hyatt and link your Hyatt account the first time.
5. Enter the points, in multiples of 1,000, and confirm.
6. Book the stay once the points show in your Hyatt account.

Is it worth moving Bilt points to Hyatt?

Our values put a Bilt point at 2.2 cents per point and a Hyatt point at 1.65 cents per point.

At 1:1 that's a loss on paper, so transfer only for a night that beats 2.2¢ per point. Run your own numbers in the Bilt calculator.

Hyatt publishes an award chart. A fixed chart charges the same points whatever the cash rate, so an expensive night can cost the same points as a cheap one. See the Hyatt points guide.

Where Hyatt points go furthest

Standard rooms are priced by category and five tiers, Lowest through Top, per night:

• Category 1 Hyatt hotels, standard room: 3,000 to 9,000 points per night, per Upgraded Points, World of Hyatt category changes (Apr 24, 2026).
• Category 8 Hyatt hotels, standard room: 35,000 to 75,000 points per night, per Upgraded Points, World of Hyatt category changes (Apr 24, 2026).

Prices checked November 1, 2026.

A worked example

A Category 8 night at the Top tier needs 75,000 Bilt points at today's 1:1. At 4:3, the same night needs 100,000. At the Lowest tier it's 35,000 today against 47,000 after the change.

When not to transfer

• You haven't found the night yet. Points stay more flexible in Bilt, with 27 partners.
• The cash rate is low. Hyatt's chart rewards expensive nights, not cheap ones.
• Chase points also go to Hyatt, at 1:1 from a Sapphire Reserve. Compare the Chase to Hyatt transfer if you hold both.
• A transfer bonus to another partner fits your trip better. Check transfer bonus alerts.
