Excess DVC Points, Considering Transfer for First Time

[Smudge1100]

Hi Guys!

We just got back yesterday from a 3 week trip to WDW. We already own at SSR but bought 150 Poly points direct on this trip. My dilemma is we aren't going back now until 2027 (summer) due to other travel plans next year, so we now have a surplus of 150 points that even if we bank, will be useless to us (February use year).

We're UK based, so find the thought of renting out any reservations quite stressful and ideally want to steer clear of friends or family using them in case anything goes wrong (My wife is an over thinker!).

So that leads me to thinking doing a transfer of all 150 points would be best.

Could you wonderful lot give me any tips/advice on going down the point transfer route as it will be our first and highly likely only!

I would recommend using the DVC Store to transfer points.
I have used them multiple times for this and they are great!

great board on here to rent/transfer points....just include in the discription,,must transfer all 150 at one time. You only get 1 transfer out/in per year. and you dont want stranded points. Should be able to get $18/per, but if you want them gone quick could take lower. Good Luck

This is interesting. Had no idea there was a broker out there willing to facilitate paid point transfers. Do you, by chance, know what cut they take for facilitating the transfer? I'm really not interested in this currently (and have to figure out how I feel about this being technically against the rules), but curious for the future.

You don’t need to rent out a reservation. You can get a broker to rent these points for you. Easy to do.
