Transferring Accor points from Sibling's account to mine! HELP

Hey all,

So as many of you probably know, Axis Atlas card has been discontinued. My sibling managed to get the Atlas upgrade on her Axis credit card just before it went away (applied on 30th August), while I don't have one. My wedding is coming up, and most of the spends are offline and at hotels, which would have perfectly optimized with Atlas. The plan is to transfer those Axis points earned to Accor and burn them for my post-wedding trip to Bali and Vietnam where I’m eyeing Accor properties.

However, I recently learned that for hotel bookings made with Accor points, the account holder must be present at check-in. Obviously, I can’t take my sibling along for the honeymoon trip. So here’s my dilemma:

  • Is there any way to transfer Accor points from her account to mine?
  • Or can I book the stay using her Accor account but check in myself without issues at the hotel?
I’ve read that Accor’s Signature Explorer membership (if held for more than 4 months) allows point transfers to friends and family. I’ve attached a screenshot and link for reference. But I’m not sure if this feature is available in India or across Asia Pacific.

Would really appreciate any workarounds, tips, or experiences regarding this point transfer or check-in policy! Thanks in advance.
