As part of SIA’s KrisFlyer September “Miles Paradise” deal, there is a 50% transfer bonus on offer with the Accor Live Limitless programme, which for the last year has been a two-way transfer option allowing miles to hotel point conversions as well as the opposite conversion from ALL to KrisFlyer.
While this gives you what would normally be considered “ok” value for expiring KrisFlyer miles, a range of other transfer promotions during the “Miles Paradise” deal mean it’s really not worth considering for most Singapore-based members.
Transfer KrisFlyer miles to ALL points with a 50% bonus
Normally you’ll receive 2 ALL points for every 9 Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer miles you convert, but between 9th September and 30th September 2025 there’s a 50% bonus deal on offer, giving you 3 ALL points for every 9 KrisFlyer miles.
| Transfer Ratio
KrisFlyer miles ALL points 9 : 3 |
Since Accor Live Limitless ALL points have a fixed value of 3 Singapore cents each at current exchange rates, based on redemption as a hotel credit at 2,000 points = €40 (S$60), the year-round transfer ratio means cashing out your KrisFlyer miles at 0.67 Singapore cents each, which is among the worst value you can get from them.
During this promotion, the boosted 9:3 transfer ratio means cashing out your KrisFlyer miles at 1 Singapore cent each, which is certainly better, but still probably not worth it for most of our readers.
Here’s how it looks against the other options at the moment.
Redemption value for KrisFlyer miles
| Option | Min. Transfer | Value per mile |
| Redeem an SIA, Scoot or partner award flight | 1,500 | 1.90¢+ |
| Extend your miles for a fee | 1* | 1.74¢ |
| Transfer to Kris+ (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
10 | 1.20¢ to 1.30¢ |
| Offset a KrisShop purchase (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
1,000 | 1.25¢ |
| Redeem a Pelago experience (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
1,000 | 1.25¢ |
| Transfer to Velocity points (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
5,000 | 1.24¢ |
| Offset an SIA or Scoot cash fare | 1,000 | 1.00¢ |
| Transfer to Accor Live Limitless (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
4,500 | 1.00¢ |
| Transfer to Shangri-La points (4 Sep – 31 Oct ’25) |
20,000 | 0.89¢ |
| Transfer to yuu Points (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
2,000 | 0.86¢ |
| Transfer to CapitaStar (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
3,000 | 0.84¢ |
| Redeem a vRooms hotel stay | 1,200 | 0.80¢ |
| Transfer to LinkPoints (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
3,000 | 0.72¢ |
| Transfer to Esso Smiles | 3,000 | 0.47¢ to 0.67¢ |
| Transfer to Marriott Bonvoy (9 – 30 Sep ’25) |
3,000 | 0.60¢ |
* Or the miles quantity you have expiring in a single calendar month, if greater
Where necessary in this table, a miles redemption value for a Singapore Airlines flight is assumed at 1.9 cents. You may have to adjust the value per mile for some of these options, if your own valuation is different.
Transfers from KrisFlyer miles to ALL points are subject to a minimum of 4,500 miles per transfer, and are capped at a maximum of 180,000 miles transferred per calendar year.
As you can see from the table above, a KrisFlyer miles to ALL points transfer during this promotion will achieve 1 cent per mile, provided you have an upcoming hotel stay to redeem the ALL points for.
However, there are also offers this month to cash out of your KrisFlyer miles at an enhanced rate of 1.2 – 1.3 cents per mile with Kris+ (transfer to KrisPay miles for in-store spend), and for Pelago at 1.25 cents per mile plus KrisShop at 1.25 cents per mile, the latter allowing flexible part cash / part miles payment.
All of these valuations are still well short of the typical value you’ll get with a First Class or Business Class award redemption on Singapore Airlines, and even some award tickets on Scoot, but if your miles are expiring and you have no travel plans coming up, it still doesn’t make sense to cash out to ALL points during this promotion with these far superior options in play.
Transfer ALL points to KrisFlyer miles with a 50% bonus
The year-round transfer ratio from Accor Live Limitless points to KrisFlyer miles is at a 2:1 ratio.
During this promotion that gets hiked by 50%, to a 2:1.5 (or 4:3) ratio.
| Transfer Ratio
ALL points KrisFlyer miles 2 : 1 2 : 1.5 |
You’re usually sacrificing around S$60 in hotel credits (2,000 ALL points) to achieve 1,000 KrisFlyer miles for each block converted, so you’d have to value KrisFlyer miles at an insanely high 6 cents each to consider this transfer year-round.
During this promotion, you’ll get 1,500 KrisFlyer miles for the same S$60 sacrifice in cash value, meaning you would still have to value KrisFlyer miles at a hugely unrealistic 4 cents each to consider this.
Avoid!

Summary
Singapore Airlines is offering a 50% bonus on transfers to or from Accor Live Limitless points between now and 30th September 2025.
While it sounds generous, a 50% bonus on a poor rate is usually still a poor rate, and that’s certainly the case with this deal.
Cashing out KrisFlyer miles into the fixed-value Accor programme only yields 1 cent of value per mile with the bonus in play – but this month you can easily get 1.2 to 1.3 cents per mile via other, more flexible “cash-out” options, including for Kris+ and KrisShop purchases.
In the opposite direction you’d have to consider KrisFlyer miles worth 4 cents each to even consider a transfer from ALL to KrisFlyer – which is borderline insane.
Avoid this one!
