Transfer Citi ThankYou Points To Wyndham And Get A 20% Bonus
Citi points normally transfer instantly to Wyndham at a 1:1 ratio. Through 9/16, you’ll get 1.2 Wyndham points for each Citi point transferred.
Wyndham hotels can either cost 7.5K, 15K, or 30K Wyndham points per night. There are several options in Israel for 15K points, though you may need to call to book with points.
A better value than Wyndham hotels can be Vacasa home rentals, which cost 15K Wyndham points per bedroom per night, or 12.5K Citi points with this bonus.
You can call 800-441-1034 to book that with Wyndham points. You can then transfer points instantly from Citi to Wyndham to book a vacation rental.
Note that rentals that cost more than $500 per bedroom per night may not be available to book with Wyndham points.
If you or a friend has one of the following Citi cards, you can transfer points into miles:
- Citi Premier® Card has a 60,000 point bonus for spending $4,000 in 3 months, 3 points per dollar on airfare, hotels, travel agents, groceries, gas, and dining. $95 annual fee. Read more here.
Citi no-annual fee cards that are fantastic for earning points, but require one of the cards above for points transfers include:
- The Citi Double Cash® Card offers 2% cash back or 2 points per dollar spent everywhere that can be transferred into ThankYou points. If you also have a Citi Premier® Card Card you can transfer points into miles. No annual fee. Read more here.
- The Citi Custom Cash® Card offers 5 points per dollar on up to $500 in purchases in your top eligible spending category each billing cycle. This is marketed as 5% cash back, but will actually come in the form of 5 ThankYou points per dollar spent! Eligible categories include Restaurants, Gas Stations, Grocery Stores, Select Travel, Select Transit, Select Streaming Services, Drugstores, Home Improvement Stores, Fitness Clubs, and Live Entertainment. You will also get 0% APR on purchases and balance transfers for 15 months. No annual fee. Read more here.
- The Citi Rewards+® Card offering 20,000 points for spending $1,500 in 3 months. This card can’t transfer points on its own, but can transfer points if you have one of the Citi cards above. This card automatically rounds up rewards earned on every purchase to the nearest 10 points, meaning you earn 10 points on a $0.50 Amazon balance reload. Earn 2 points on $6K in annual spending at supermarkets, and a 10% points rebate when you redeem points, up to a 10K points rebate per year. If you also have a Citi Premier® Card Card you can transfer points into miles and get a 10% points rebate on transferred or redeemed miles. No annual fee. Read more here.

Chase also has a Wyndham offer on its cards, plus Wyndham generally has nice bonus point offers when you book multiple nights. The current one is:
STAY EARN
2 Consecutive Nights 5,000 Bonus Points
3 Consecutive Nights 10,000 Bonus Points
4+ Consecutive Nights 15,000 Bonus Points
I assume this stacks with the Rewards+ rebate? Which would means an effective transfer ratio of 3:4 (.9:1.2).
Sure!
This also stacks with the 10% Wyndham cardmember discount. So the night would cost 13.5k Wyndham points per night if you have a Wyndham card.
Has anybody used points for Vaasa Home rentals
is there good value?
its 15k total per night no other fees?
I used it recently in Kona, Hawaii and it was excellent value! Property that was over $300 per night was just 15K points (+10% back for being a cardholder, so just 13.5K points per night), and no fees if redeeming points.
I just redeemed a 3 night stay that was listed at about $1300 after tax. 2 rooms so 90K Wyndham points or 75K Citi points total. The listing said pets were allowed but the person at the Wyndham reservation number said I need to call the property number they will give me to pay a pet fee but they didn’t know the exact amount. I think some places also have a per person resort fee you pay on arrival but that should be clearly noted in the listing. I confirmed all points are refunded if cancelled within 30 days of reservation.
FYI, I attempted to ask some questions about booking via the email above and got this reply:
To review/ cancel or book a Vacasa location(s) using your Wyndham Rewards points, you now just need to call 1-800-441-1034.
Reservations can no longer be reviewed or made via triprewards.fulfillment@wyndham.com.
Also, the number Dan listed now goes direct to someone’s desk and they are on vacation. Use 1-800-441-1034 instead.
