You can never have too many Chase Ultimate Rewards points.
This transferable rewards currency gives you access to some of the best hotel and airline transfer partners; therefore, it remains one of the most valuable to have in your wallet. According to TPG's May 2026 valuations, Ultimate Rewards points are worth 2.05 cents each, which is what you should aim for when redeeming your points to help you maximize your rewards.
However, you can also use your points to book car rentals, hotels and flights in the easy-to-use Chase Travel℠ portal when using certain Chase credit cards.
