PARSIPPANY, N.J., Oct. 11, 2016 -- On the heels of being named U.S. News & World Report's #1 hotel rewards program, a new survey by leading consulting firm IdeaWorks has named Wyndham Rewards the most generous among leading hotel loyalty programs, offering more than 2x the reward value return (13.6% vs 5.6%)1 of the last place program.

Now Wyndham Rewards wants to spread the magic of its award-winning program by giving SPG members an unprecedented opportunity to swap their points at a 4 to 1 ratio, plus receive a status level match, but they have to act fast.

  • On Tuesday, October 11 from 12p.m. – 11:59p.m. EST, SPG members have the historic opportunity to donate their points to an SPG linked charity in exchange for 4x the number of points with Wyndham Rewards – plus a status level match.
  • To participate, members simply need to donate their entire SPG point balance to their preferred, approved charity, and then send proof of their donation to Wyndham Rewards by sending screen shots towyndhamrewards.fulfillment@wyn.com. Two (2) screen shots are required – one showing confirmation of the point donation; and a second showing the member's account activity page with a zero balance upon completion of the transaction.
  • There is no cap on how many points members may donate or earn. Members can expect to receive the points and match within 10 days.
  • Wyndham Rewards is the only program in the world to offer its members a free-night stay at any of its nearly 8,000 hotels for a flat 15,000 points with no blackout dates.
  • For more information, visit the Wyndham Rewards Facebook page at facebook.com/wyndhamrewards. Full terms and conditions are available here.
