Buy Choice Privileges Points — Details

Choice Privileges frequently offers a discount or bonus on purchased points, though the amount varies. The current offer has up to a 40% discount for targeted members for a limited time.

Right now, we are seeing a discount of up to 40% on purchased points. If maximized, this promotion will drop the cost of buying points to 0.62 cents each, which is the best offer we’ve seen in a long time. Purchases are available here.

This is a tiered offer, meaning the discount improves as you buy more points:

  • Buy 1,000 to 5,000 points without a discount
  • Buy 6,000 to 9,000 points with a 30% discount
  • Buy 10,000 to 17,000 points with a 35% discount
  • Buy 18,000+ points with a 40% discount (0.62 cents each)

Your specific discount may vary, as this is a targeted offer. This promotion is valid through August 25, 2025, and you can buy up to 180,000 points before the discount.

Hot Tip:

Choice Privileges points are sold through Points.com, so they won’t code as a travel or hotel purchase. To get the best return when purchasing Choice Privileges points, use an everyday spending card like the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card or the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card to earn 2x miles per $1 spent or the Chase Freedom Unlimited® to earn 1.5% cash-back

Is It Worth It?

Though there isn’t a ton of buzz around Choice Privileges points, there are abundant examples of when buying these can make sense. Choice Hotels has thousands of properties across the world. While many of these aren’t ultra-high-end, you can score some good value.

There are a few things to know about Choice points in general:

  • Choice doesn’t charge more for additional guests (up to the capacity limit)
  • Suites cost the same as standard rooms in points

At Upgraded Points, we value Choice Privileges points at 0.6 cents per point. Thus, this 40% discount means you’re buying points at a price just above their typical value. That said, it’s certainly possible to get more than 0.62 cents per point in value, depending on how you redeem Choice Privileges points. If you can do that, buying for a fair price and redeeming points at a number higher than that can be a great way to save money — especially if you were going to pay cash for a hotel and the cost of buying the needed points is cheaper.

Other Ways To Earn Choice Privileges Points

Other than buying Choice points, there are a few other ways to earn Choice Privileges points.

Citi ThankYou Rewards Points and Wells Fargo Rewards points transfer to Choice Privileges at a 1:2 ratio. You also can transfer your Amex Membership Rewards points and Capital One miles to Choice at a 1:1 ratio, but these options aren’t great. Citi and Wells Fargo offer a better transfer rate.

You also can earn Choice points from everyday spending and welcome offers on 2 credit cards issued by Wells Fargo in the U.S.: the Choice Privileges® Mastercard® and Choice Privileges® Select Mastercard®.

Final Thoughts

As with previous offers, this is a targeted promotion, offering up to a 40% discount when you buy Choice Privileges points. If you have this offer, you can buy Choice points at a decent price if you purchase at least 18,000 points in a single transaction.

If you want take advantage of this offer, purchase before the sale ends on August 25, 2025.
