How to Earn Wyndham Points
Wyndham points are relatively easy to earn, thanks to having two major bank transfer partners and a solid lineup of co-branded credit cards.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Credit Card Transfers | Transfer points from Capital One Miles and Citi ThankYou Rewards. |
| Co-branded Credit Cards | Wyndham offers several co-branded cards issued by Barclays, including a no-fee option. |
| Hotel Stays | Earn 10 points per dollar or 1,000 points per stay, whichever is more, at Wyndham properties. |
How to Use Your Points
Wyndham's redemption structure is one of the simplest in the hotel world, with just three fixed price points for free night awards.
- Go Free Award: Redeem your points for a completely free night at 7,500, 15,000, or 30,000 points.
- Go Fast Award: If you're a bit short on points, you can use a smaller number (1,500, 3,000, or 6,000) plus a cash co-pay to book your room.
- How to Book Vacasa: This is important! You have to call Wyndham Rewards directly to book Vacasa rentals with your points. You can't do it online.
Vacasa Redemption Tip
The Best Deals (Sweet Spots)
The value here is clear and easy to find, especially with the incredible Vacasa partnership.
This is the absolute best sweet spot in the program. You can redeem just 15,000 points per bedroom, per night for stays at thousands of Vacasa vacation rentals. This can give you incredible value, like booking a multi-bedroom house for a fraction of the cash price.
No complicated charts here. All Wyndham hotels cost a fixed 7,500, 15,000, or 30,000 points per night. This makes it very easy to know how many points you need for a stay.
You can transfer your Wyndham points to Caesars Rewards at a 1:1 ratio, which is useful for booking hotel stays in Las Vegas and other casino destinations.
