Best Western has just brought back a great promotion for buying gift cards, which could be worth it for anyone who stays at Best Western properties with any frequency…
In this post:
Buy $100 gift card, get $20 bonus card
Best Western is selling e-gift cards with up to a 20% bonus:
- The promotion is valid for gift card purchases made between November 26 and December 5, 2025
- With each $100 Best Western gift card purchased, you get a $20 bonus card
- Each person can purchase up to five Best Western gift cards through this offer (for a total of a $100 bonus)
- While the main gift cards purchased don’t have an expiration date, the bonus gift cards expire on February 28, 2026
- You can purchase gift cards in USD, CAD, EUR, or GBP, and then they can be used worldwide
- Best Western gift cards are transferable
- Gift cards can’t be used as a form of reservation guarantee, and you also can’t use them for pre-paid rates
As you can see, the biggest restriction here is that you need to use your bonus gift card within the next three months, by the end of February 2026.

This promotion is a great deal
If you stay at Best Western properties with any frequency, then taking advantage of this offer should be a no-brainer. Getting a 20% bonus for buying a gift card in advance is an excellent deal, assuming you can use the bonus gift card before it expires.
When you stay at Best Western properties, make sure you take advantage of any loyalty program promotions to get the best value.
Bottom line
Best Western is offering a $20 bonus gift card for every $100 worth of gift cards purchased. If you spend money regularly with Best Western, then I’d absolutely recommend taking advantage of this. That’s especially true when you consider that the non-bonus gift cards don’t expire, and you can even transfer them to others.
Anyone plan to take advantage of this Best Western gift card promo?

So I anticipate the gift cards will be useful for me, as a 20% bonus on purchase value is useful to me on gift cards that work worldwide with BW properties and can lower the cost of my hotel stays at BW properties that I am using frequently anyway in some places.
