Not sure if this has already been shared and it slipped by me, but I noticed today in the Villa Finder there is a new link at the top labeled "StarOptions Banking." It recognized my 5* status and allowed me to book a handful of remaining 2017 StarOptions with no problems. Very nice not to have to call any longer.

You could always do it online by using the online message function, but it's nice that they added a link.

Not just a link, but the transaction completes automatically. No more human intervention.

I have still 23k points from 2017... I am trying to book for 2018 but I need to wait until September. When do I need to bank this 23k if not using them in 2017 or 2018? thanks

The deadline to bank Staroptions was the end of June, (except for elite owners) so they must be used by the end of this year, or they will expire.
