aarif1 is precisely correct ^.

You cannot transfer UR points unless you have one of the five cards mentioned in post #2. Apply for one of those, then you will be able to transfer the Freedom UR points to the new account, and from there to BA or one of the other partners.

To be sure there is no misunderstanding you must apply for Chase Sapphire Preferred not the free Sapphire.

Which of that list is preferred/better at redemption? Any with sign up bonuses/transfer bonuses?

The JP Morgan cards are not available without a banking relationship.

The only personal card on the list is Sapphire Preferred, see this thread:

The Ink cards are intended for small businesses. See these threads:

ahhh, I don't really want another annual fee'd card...

is there a better way to spend my UR pointsfrom my freedom, or just get cash?

If you have a significant amount of UR points, you best option would be to upgrade to the Sapphire Preferred for a year, which will cost your $95, however the value to you receive from the miles(assuming it is a significant amount(>50K), will far outweigh the annual fee.

From their you can transfer it to several frequent flier programs depending on your travel plans and desires.

I believe the first year is free.

The transfer feature requires that you hold at least one Chase card which carriers an annual fee. However, as noted, the fee is often waived for the first year.

Need help transfering points from Chase Freedom to Southwest Rewards
 

Hello guys can somebody please let me know how can I transfer my points from my chase freedom card to southwest rewards? I don't have a chase saphire or a chase ink, any help would be appreciated

If you only have the Freedom card then you can do the transfer.

You answered your own question. With only a Freedom card you can't transfer points to third party programs like.WN

If you have a spouse with the card you can combine points and then transfer.

+1 If you or your spouse has a CSP you can transfer. Otherwise apply for a CSP card you can still transfer to it and then to other airline programs.
1st year fee is waived on CSP card.

Thanks jjmiler that's what I'm probably going to end up doing, also any of you guys know if I can transfer from Freedom Card to the Chase United Explorer card?

Transferring to UA is no different than transferring to WN. You cannot transfer from Ultimate Rewards to any other program unless you have one of the qualifying cards.

You can't transfer UR from chase freedom to travel partners. Only Sapphire Preferred, Ink Bold, and Ink Plus have that ability. You would also have to first transfer points from freedom to one of these three cards, and then transfer to your desired airline/hotel program.
