Methodology and sources
A transfer is final: once converted, points do not come back to your Membership Rewards account.
Value per MR point = value of one partner point × points received ÷ MR points transferred. Example: with Virgin Atlantic Flying Club, at 1,000 MR = 1,000, a partner point is worth $0.0145, so an MR point is worth $0.0145.
Each ratio was checked on American Express's transfer page for the country; its link and verification date are in the table. A partner whose ratio is not published does not appear: no ratio is inferred from another country.
When Amex publishes no minimum or increment, the calculator transfers the smallest multiple that credits a whole number of partner points. Whatever cannot move stays in your account: that is the leftover.
A transfer cap applies to each transfer, not to the balance: a large balance moves in several transfers, so the cap does not enter the calculation.
Each partner point value is an in-house valuation, in USD: the median of values published in US dollars by specialist sites. A program no source values in dollars keeps the value of its official award chart.
