IHG One Rewards Fall 2024 Promo: 3K Points Every Two Nights

IHG One Rewards has launched its newest global promotion for stays as of today. While registration opened about a week ago, members can now start taking advantage of this. I’d say that this is better than nothing, but probably not a reason to switch any stays to IHG.

IHG One Rewards offering up to 1,500 points per night

For late 2024, IHG One Rewards is offering 3,000 bonus points for every two eligible nights consumed during the promotion period.

As you’d expect, there are some details to be aware of:

• Registration is required prior to your first eligible stay
• The promotion is valid for stays between September 19 and December 31, 2024
• There is no booking deadline, so nights consumed anytime during the promotion period are eligible, as long as you register in time
• All paid nights booked directly with IHG qualify for this promotion, as long as the nightly rate is at least $30 (award nights don’t qualify)
• The bonus can be earned an unlimited number of times, with the limit being how many nights you can stay during the promotion period
• Bonus points will post within six weeks of an eligible stay

How lucrative is this IHG One Rewards promotion?

IHG One Rewards members ordinarily earn the following return on spending at IHG properties:

• IHG offers 10x points per dollar spent at most brands, and 5x points per dollar spent at Candlewood Suites and Staybridge Suites
• IHG members receive bonus points — Silver members receive a 20% bonus, Gold members receive a 40% bonus, Platinum members receive a 60% bonus, and Diamond members receive a 100% bonus
• If you pay with the IHG One Rewards Premier Credit Card (review) or IHG One Rewards Premier Business Credit Card (review), you earn 10x bonus points per dollar spent

Personally I value IHG points at ~0.5 cents each. That makes this promotion pretty straightforward. You can earn up to 1,500 bonus points per night (as long as you stay an even number of eligible nights during the promotion period), which comes out to an incremental return of $7.50 per night.

That’s better than nothing, but that’s about all I can say. I can’t imagine many people will be switching around stays in order to take advantage of this offer.

Bottom line

IHG One Rewards has just launched its promotion for the fall of 2024. With this, registered members can earn 3,000 bonus points for every two eligible nights consumed, with no limits. By my valuation, that’s an incremental return of up to $7.50 per night. That’s not exactly a reason to switch any business to IHG, but if you’re eligible, you might as well register.
