For a limited time, from October 15 to 21, 2026, HeyMax users can convert Max Miles into KrisFlyer miles at a favorable 1:1 ratio. This unique offer eliminates the typical value loss when transferring, allowing travelers to benefit from their Max Miles effectively.
How to Maximize Your Transfer
To take advantage of this opportunity, users must follow a few steps:
Step 1: Draw Your Max Miles
- Initially, users need to withdraw a minimum of 30,000 Max Miles from their HeyMax First account.
- Your HeyMax First Silver membership already allows you to borrow these Max Miles for an access fee of 3 cents per mile, which will be refunded when you repay the drawn miles.

- The cost of accessing 30,000 Max Miles will range from S$690 to S$900, depending on your membership tier.
It’s important to note that if you have any Max Miles already stored in your account, you can immediately repay the borrowed miles and still qualify for the transfer bonus.
Step 2: Benefit from the Transfer Bonus
Once you've conducted the draw, users will receive a 20% bonus when converting Max Miles to yuu Points. This conversion improves the exchange rate to 1 Max Mile for 3.6 yuu Points.
- There is a minimum transfer requirement of 1,000 Max Miles.
- The conversion process is quick and without any fees.

- A minimum of 200 yuu Points is necessary for this conversion.
- Transfers can easily be performed via the yuu Rewards Club app by selecting Me > Transfer Points > KrisFlyer.
