Here's how to transfer hotel points and earn bonus miles:

1. Select a hotel points program that you belong to
from the list below

2. Transfer the amount of hotel points equivalent to
10,000-19,999 miles (exchange rates vary by hotel
program), and you'll earn 2,500 bonus miles

3. Convert the amount of hotel points equivalent to
20,000 miles or more (exchange rates vary by hotel
program), and you'll earn 5,000 bonus miles

Not attractive for me but maybe somebody with orphan hotel points might be able to use it.
