What’s the chase preferred dollar to points ratio? Trying to determine if a $70 delta is worth it to pay brokers fee of $3k on the CC vs wiring the money

Minimum is 1.25 cents per point when redeemed for travel through the portal - you may be able to do better via transfers but let’s assume that. $3k is only $37.50 in points value.

Are you counting a cost of doing a bank wire? 2.3% fee for cc payment is low - I’m guessing its at least 3% and you’re comparing a $30 wire with a $100 cc transaction fee. See if you can just write a check.

Yes your assumption is correct. Wish check was an option! Thanks for sharing the redemption values
