## Summary

Wells Fargo has introduced a suite of travel transfer partners for points earned on its Autograph credit cards (Autograph Journey and Autograph Card). Previously, points were primarily redeemed at a flat rate of 1 cent each via the Wells Fargo Rewards portal. The new partners allow transfers at a 1:1 ratio (unless noted) to: - Avianca Lifemiles
- Virgin Atlantic Flying Club / Virgin Red
- Choice Privileges (transfers at 1:2 ratio)
- Wyndham Rewards (transfers at 1:2 ratio)
- Aer Lingus, British Airways, and Iberia (via Avios, which can be transferred to Finnair Plus and Qatar Airways Privilege Club) This change enables cardholders to potentially redeem points for up to $960 value on the Autograph Journey card and $320 on the no-ee card, significantly enhancing the utility of the welcome bonuses and everyday earnings. Eligibility: Points are available for transfer at the end of each billing cycle once posted to the Wells Fargo account
