Our Verdict

We saw a 50% transfer bonus last year, before that it was always transfer bonuses to SPG for 50% as well:

October 23 – November 17th, 2016: 50% bonus
October 12th – October 31st, 2015: 50% bonus
October 16th – November 30th, 2014: 50% bonus

In my opinion American Express Membership Rewards points are way more valuable than Marriott even with a bigger transfer bonus. Because of that I wouldn’t recommend transferring. As always a full list of American Express transfer bonuses can be viewed here. There is also a Hilton transfer bonus currently as well.
