Best way is to use them for hotel rooms, everything else is poor value.
Or you can transfer them to somebody
Transferring them is a pain the behind. I did it once and it was too cumbersome. You have to have a document that states who they're going to, they have to have a reservation on file, it has to be signed by both parties, faxed, then it will be reviewed and finally approved. Also, it can only be done if the transferer is PLAT I believe.
