Redeeming your Brex points
Overview
After you’ve earned Brex points by transacting on your Brex card, you can start redeeming them for different types of rewards in your Brex dashboard. This includes value added services, gift cards, travel, and other options. As long as your account is active, you can redeem your points at any time — your points don’t expire. After an account is closed, however, any Brex points that have not been redeemed cannot be recovered or used.
Redemption process
Each reward has its own redemption rate, which you can see when you go through the steps to redeem that specific reward.
Cashback

Step 2: Under Redemption Options, select Redeem in the Cash section. Step 3: Enter the number of points you want to redeem. Once submitted, the points will be converted into cash and deposited into your Brex business account balance.

Step 4: Click Transfer on the program of your choice. Step 5: Enter the number of Brex rewards points you want to transfer and select which cardholder to transfer them to (you can transfer points to yourself or any other employee with a Brex card).

Important: Once the transfer is complete, your points are subject to the terms and conditions of the partner airline’s rewards program and cannot be transferred back to your Brex account.
