A simple Google search should be able to help you.

According to the Google searches, there should be an option on chase ultimate rewards website a button to transfer.  But that button doesn’t exist.  The first person I spoke to at Chase said the same thing, but then asked someone else there and they said it’s not possible.  The second person even said there was never such an option.

Cash?

Yes, Business Cash.  Can’t transfer from the Business Cash?  Which Chase Card can we transfer to United?
Thank you very much.

You can only transfer from a card with an annual fee. If you have such a card, you can transfer from the Cash card to the one with an AF and then transfer to United

Lifemiles works, but there is a booking fee.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

If United is not showing any business saver availability then you can’t book it with any other partner

If I book an award ticket with UA, can I add a connection later?
For example, SFO to ZRH, and then add LA to SFO later? (not a stopover in SFO, just a connection - less than 24 hrs)

What about booking LA to ZRH, and only available now through SFO, if something direct opens later, is there a charge to change it?
