Consider Transferring Wyndham Rewards Points to Partners

Wyndham Rewards points expire four years after they are posted. If a user is not satisfied with the Wyndham program or its properties, it's advisable to transfer these points to an airline partner to avoid losing their value, especially if a free night at a Wyndham property costs only 7,500 points.

I do have one good reason why Vicky might want to transfer her points to someone else. And that is that Windom rewards points expire four years after the date on which they were posted.

So, if Vicky got all these points and is like, oh man, I can't stand Windom and I can't even gift it, then maybe you transfer them. Because unused points are really worthless, right? And so, maybe you consider using them for something else.

And there are some Windom properties you can book for like 7,500 points. So, that's not a ton of points depending on how many she has.
