How long does the Chase to Aeroplan transfer bonus last?

The 20% promotional bonus runs from 12:00 AM ET on April 1, 2026, through 11:59 PM ET on April 30, 2026. All transfers must be completed within this window to qualify for the bonus points.

Can I get both the 20% and 10% transfer bonuses at the same time?

Yes. Chase confirmed the two bonuses stack. You need an eligible Ultimate Rewards card (like the Sapphire Preferred or Reserve) plus a Chase Aeroplan Credit Card. Transfer at least 50,000 points in a single transaction to activate the 10% bonus on top of the 20% promo.

Which Chase cards can transfer points to Aeroplan?

The eligible cards are: Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Ink Business Preferred, Ink Plus, Chase Corporate Flex, and JPMorgan Reserve. Cards without annual fees, like the Freedom Flex, cannot transfer directly to partners.

Can I transfer Chase points to an authorized user's Aeroplan account?

No. Transfers must go to the primary cardmember's own Aeroplan account. The name on the Chase card must match the name on the Aeroplan account. Transfers to authorized users' accounts or any other third-party Aeroplan account are not eligible.

Can I transfer Aeroplan points back to Chase Ultimate Rewards?

No. Once you transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Aeroplan, the transfer is permanent. There is no way to reverse it. Make sure you have a specific booking in mind before committing.

What is the minimum number of Chase points I can transfer to Aeroplan?

The minimum transfer is 1,000 Ultimate Rewards points, and transfers must be made in increments of 1,000 points. The standard transfer ratio is 1:1 before any bonus is applied.

How quickly do the bonus Aeroplan points post?

The base transferred points usually arrive in your Aeroplan account within minutes. The bonus points from both the 20% promo and the 10% Aeroplan card bonus may take up to 7 days to appear in your account.

Is there a cap on the 20% promotional bonus?

Chase has not stated a cap on the 20% promotional bonus. However, the separate 10% Aeroplan card bonus is capped at 25,000 bonus Aeroplan points per calendar year. The two bonuses have independent terms.

Do I need an Aeroplan account before transferring?

Yes. You must be an enrolled Aeroplan member with your account in good standing. If you do not have one, you can sign up for free at aircanada.com before initiating the transfer from Chase.
