Transfer Capital One Venture miles 1:1 to Wyndham Rewards for redemptions at Wyndham properties and Vacasa vacation rentals. 15,000 Wyndham points for most properties (Wyndham caps award pricing). Capital One → Wyndham is a 1:1 transfer. Works for road-trip stays at Days Inn, La Quinta, Ramada, Travelodge, and the vacation rental angle.
Why this redemption is worth chasing
At 1.3¢ per point this is a modest but real redemption. The cash ticket of around $200 doesn't make this a steal, but it's a fair use of 15,000 points if you weren't going to redeem them for anything better.

How to book this redemption
- 1Confirm award space first. N/A award seats can disappear in minutes. Search for the specific dates you want directly on the Capital One Venture website (or use our sweet-spot library to compare programs side-by-side first).
- 2Earn or transfer the points. If you don't already have 15,000 Capital One Venture points, transfer from a flexible bank-points card. Transfers usually complete within minutes.
- 3Book immediately after the transfer lands. Award seats can vanish between your transfer and your booking. Have the search results open when you transfer.
- 4Pay any fuel surcharges or taxes. Most awards carry $50-$300 in cash fees on top of the miles. Check the estimate before you transfer, it should still be a fraction of the cash ticket.
