Choice Hotels is running a limited-time sale on Choice Privileges points: buy by Nov. 26 and you can get up to 40% more points on your purchase.
Key details (as of Nov. 14, 2026)
- The offer: Up to 40% bonus points on purchased Choice Privileges points. Choice says “terms apply,” and the “up to” matters: the bonus you see can depend on your account and how many points you buy.
- Deadline: Buy by Nov. 26. Choice’s page doesn’t list a cutoff time, so don’t leave it for the last evening.
- What the points are good for: Choice says you can redeem them for hotel stays, gift cards to restaurants and retailers, and experiences.
- Points + cash: If you have at least 6,000 points but not enough for a full reward night, Choice lets you combine points and cash for a discounted stay.
- Gifting: Choice now lets you gift up to 180,000 points a year to friends or family.
Prices and bonus tiers aren’t shown until you’re logged in, and offers like this can change quickly, so check your own price before you pay.
How to book
- Go to the Buying and Gifting Points page on choicehotels.com (linked below).
- Sign in to your Choice Privileges account. Joining is free if you don’t have one.
- Pick “Buy points” and check the bonus and total price shown for different amounts.
- Before buying, look up the actual hotel and dates you want, so you know exactly how many points you need.
Who it’s good for
This is for you if you’ve already got a specific Choice redemption in mind and you’re a little short. It’s also handy if you’re helping a family member get to a reward night, since you can gift points too.
Our take
We think this is a good top-off deal, not a reason to stock up. Here’s the math to do: take the total price Choice shows you, divide it by the points you’d get after the bonus, and compare that cost per point to the cash rate for the room you actually want. If buying the points beats paying cash for that stay, go for it. If it’s close, just pay cash and keep the flexibility.
The catch is that the headline 40% is a ceiling. Your offer could be smaller, and purchased points are a bet that your hotel’s award price won’t change before you book. We’d buy if we had a stay lined up for this winter. We’d skip it if we were buying “just in case.”
Prices, bonuses and availability change quickly. Confirm everything on Choice’s site before you buy.
