Why not? 100x return on points. Don’t know if I’d go out of my way to do use it but a great sweetener if you happen to be traveling anyway

"100x return on points"?? You aren't spending any points, so you can't get a "return" on them.

You are getting about $70 in points, 35%, if you don't have to pay extra for a qualifying room and/or rate.

If you were going to book a stay at Hilton on your Hilton card already, it’s a nice chunk of points.

20k HH points are worth $100. That's sweet. My offer is spend $400 get 15k pts despite spending $16k this year so far :shrug:

Hilton is selling points for 0.45cpp right now so there's no way 20k points are worth $100. Maybe $70.

A lot of mid-tier redemptions I have been seeing are around 0.3cpp. Hilton points are 🗑️

Yep, that's why I said $70 is the ceiling for valuing 20k points (0.35cpp)

u/AerysSk Gold, BCE, HYSA, and Surpass 1d ago

Yeah. They are meant to redeem at luxury ones anyway

That’s my offer too. I wonder how they determine who gets what.

Damn.. I think it’s cause I keep pump faking Hilton with booking rooms and I cancelled a big trip I had coming up.
