Wyndham Rewards is selling points with an 80%, 90% or 100% bonus through Dec. 31, 2026, and at the top tier that works out to about 0.65 cents a point.

Key details (as of Nov. 13, 2026)

  • Promo period: Nov. 11 through Dec. 31, 2026, per Wyndham’s terms.
  • Bonus: 80%, 90% or 100% more points. Wyndham Rewards Earner cardmembers and Wyndham Rewards Insiders get the 100% bonus. Wyndham doesn’t say who lands in the 80% or 90% tiers, so log in and check yours.
  • Rough cost per point: about 0.65 cents at 100%, about 0.68 cents at 90% and about 0.72 cents at 80%, based on Wyndham’s usual price of roughly 1.3 cents a point. Your exact price shows at checkout.
  • Limits: minimum 3,000 points per purchase. The annual cap goes up to 200,000 points during the promo.
  • Fine print: online purchases only. Points post within 72 hours. Sales are final and non-refundable, purchased points don’t count toward member levels, and the offer can’t be combined with other offers. Wyndham can change or end it at any time.
  • What points buy: since Sept. 15, 2026, Wyndham free nights cost 5,000, 15,000, 30,000 or 45,000 points per bedroom per night.

Prices and availability change quickly, so check the live numbers before you buy.

How to buy

  1. Find the award night you actually want first, and note how many points it costs and what the cash rate is.
  2. Log in to your Wyndham Rewards account at wyndhamhotels.com.
  3. Go to the Buy Points page and click “Buy Now.” That takes you to Wyndham’s purchase partner, Points.com.
  4. Enter at least 3,000 points and confirm the bonus shown before you pay.
  5. Give it up to 72 hours for the points to post, then book the award.

Who it’s good for

This is for you if you’re a few thousand points short of a specific award, or you’ve found a Wyndham hotel where the cash rate is way above what the points would cost you. Earner cardholders and Insiders get the best price, so they come out ahead the most.

Our take

It’s a good price, but only buy with a booking already in mind.

Let’s do the math. At the 100% bonus, a 15,000-point night costs you about $97.50. At 80% it’s closer to $108. Plenty of Wyndham hotels in that tier sell for around that much in cash anyway, and then you’ve saved nothing and given up the flexibility of a refundable cash rate. Where it pays off is a hotel whose cash price jumps on a holiday weekend or during a big event while the points price stays put. A 5,000-point night for about $32.50 can also be a nice deal if the cash rate is well above that.

Here’s the catch: these points are non-refundable, and buying them “just in case” is how people end up holding a balance they never use. We’d buy if we were topping off for a stay we’d already priced out. We’d skip it if we didn’t have a trip planned, or if the cash rate was within a few dollars of the points cost. Also, you’ve got until Dec. 31, so there’s no reason to rush before your plans are firm.
