When to Buy Hotel Points

Buying hotel points can be a good deal when:

  • You need a small top-up for an award redemption
  • The promotion offers at least a 50% bonus
  • The cost per point (after bonus) is significantly less than the redemption value
  • You have an immediate use for the points

Hotel Points Valuations

Here are typical point valuations to help determine if a promotion is worthwhile:

  • Marriott Bonvoy: 0.7-0.9 cents per point
  • Hilton Honors: 0.4-0.6 cents per point
  • World of Hyatt: 1.5-2.0 cents per point
  • IHG One Rewards: 0.5-0.7 cents per point

Tips for Buying Points

  • Only buy points when you have a specific redemption in mind
  • Compare the cost of buying points to the cash rate
  • Consider annual purchase limits for each program
  • Factor in that purchased points typically don't earn elite credit
