1. TRANSFERRING POINTS TO FREQUENT CUSTOMER PROGRAMS
Who can transfer points
Some Card Members have the option to transfer points into a participating frequent customer program account. The Cards listed below are not eligible to transfer points. All other American Express Cards are eligible.
Please note that this information only applies to Cards that aren't linked with others on the same program accounts. If you have a Card enrolled in Membership Rewards when you enroll another Card, the Cards may be linked to the same program account unless one or both of those Cards is enrolled in Membership Rewards through a separate program account created for you as an Additional Business Card Member. If the Cards are linked to the same program account, both Cards will be eligible for the benefits available to the Card with the greater benefits. For example, if you link a Blue Card to a program account with your Platinum Card, you will be eligible to transfer points that you've earned by spending with your Blue Card.
The following Cards are not eligible to transfer points:
American Express® Platinum Credit Card
Blue for Business® Credit Card
Blue for Students®
