Hyatt Gold Passport - Can you convert points to spouse's FF account?

Sorry if this has been answered but couldn't query it.

I have a few Hyatt points sitting around doing nada (unfortunately my work puts me in Hilton or SPG). I was going to convert them into one of my FF accounts and was curious if anyone has attempted to transfer them to the FF account of one's spouse or someone else. Assuming last name is the same, not sure if the airline checks that carefully. I've been able to do it with my Amex MR (officially you aren't suppose to but could do it). Just wondering.

Thanks,

Under Earning Options, go to "Convert Points to Miles."

I've never done what you're trying. Give it a shot.

If that doesn't work, maybe try combining/giving points to your spouse and then transferring them to the FF account.

Thanks for the link, kenbo.

You can make an award reservation under your spouse's name, with your points. If the reservation is canceled using this method, the points go back into your account. You also have the option, to use the above link, to combine points from your account, to make up for what the other account is lacking for a free night. If the reservation is canceled, using the point combine form, they will go into the account from the account the award was issued from. Unfortunately, you cannot give points just to be placed into another account.
