Radisson Hotel Group does not guarantee transfer of points after death. Lifetime planning provides options for managing points and controlling who has access to them.
Members can transfer points to other Radisson Rewards members while their account is active. This may involve a fee, but it is the most straightforward way to share points with family.
How to protect your Radisson Rewards points
7 lifetime planning steps for your Radisson Rewards points:
- •Book free or discounted nights at Radisson Hotel Group properties worldwide.
- •Transfer points to one of Radisson's airline or loyalty partners at the rates shown on the redeem/transfer-points page.
Family sharing
Radisson Rewards allows living members to transfer points to another member via the Transfer Points feature. Elite Status members may transfer points to any other member upon request with no fee. Non-Elite members may only transfer points to another member residing in the same household, provided both individuals have been Radisson Rewards members for at least one year and neither account address has been updated within the 30 days prior to the transfer request. Once transferred, points cannot be transferred back. Points may also be transferred to select partner programs listed on the redeem/transfer-points page. There is no formal family pooling account.
Should you save your passwords for your family?
Some people store account passwords so a family member can sign in later. The practice has three practical limits:
- Two-factor authentication often blocks it. Most accounts require a second factor — a code sent to a phone, an authenticator app, a passkey, or a physical key. A saved password alone frequently does not grant access, and the recovery codes that would are easy to lose or let go stale.
- It usually conflicts with the platform's terms. Most operators prohibit account sharing and signing in as another person, including after a death. Stored credentials are not the operator's recognized access path, and using them can violate the terms of service.
- Operators provide other paths. Where an operator offers a designation tool — Apple's Legacy Contact, Google's Inactive Account Manager, a beneficiary designation — that mechanism grants access the operator recognizes. A password manager's own emergency-access or legacy feature passes credentials through a controlled process. Digital assets named in a will or trust give a fiduciary authority under each state's Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act (RUFADAA).
Listing the Radisson Rewards account in an estate inventory identifies it for a fiduciary, who works through the operator's official channels to manage or close it.
Radisson Rewards does not offer beneficiary designations, so there is no program-level mechanism for directing points to a specific person at death.
