Points-transfer processing time

The time a rewards program takes to process a transfer of points or miles to a partner loyalty program.

Illustrative example

Illustrative example: a traveler preparing a New York (JFK) to London Heathrow (LHR) award submits a transfer on Monday and sees the miles in the airline account on Tuesday. The time between those events is the processing time; these dates are illustrative, not a promised delivery time.
