Hilton Launches ‘Stay More Earn More’ Promotion: Earn up to 15,000 Bonus Points [Targeted]

Hilton Honors is back with another targeted promotion, this time rewarding repeat stays with escalating bonus points. The new “Stay More Earn More 2026” offer gives select members the chance to earn up to 15,000 bonus points across 5 stays.

As this is a targeted offer, you’ll need to be one of the lucky members who received an invite. However, early online reports suggest many people are being included.

If Hilton sent the offer your way, here’s what you need to know.

Hilton’s ‘Stay More Earn More’ Promotion Details

This is a targeted promotion, meaning it’s only available to members who received the offer directly from Hilton. If you didn’t get an email or see it in your account, you can still try registering here. That said, many members have reported receiving the offer via email overnight, so it’s worth checking your inbox and your Hilton Honors account before giving up.

For those who qualify, the structure is simple. You’ll need to register by December 31, 2026, then complete your stays within 6 months of your registration date. The bonus points increase with each additional stay:

• First stay: 1,000 bonus points
• Second stay: 2,000 bonus points
• Third stay: 3,000 bonus points
• Fourth stay: 4,000 bonus points
• Fifth stay: 5,000 bonus points

That’s a cumulative total of 15,000 bonus points if you complete all 5 stays. A “stay” is defined as consecutive nights at the same hotel, even if you check out and then check back in again. All Hilton brands are participating, so you’ve got plenty of flexibility on where to book.

You’ll need to register before checking out of any stay you want to count, and any stays you’ve already completed before registering won’t qualify.

A few other terms worth noting: Bonus points earned through this promotion don’t count toward elite tier qualification, and you can stack this promotion with other targeted or global offers tied to your account. Hilton also notes that bonus points may take 6-8 weeks to post after each stay.

Is It Worth It?

We need to be honest about the math. At Upgraded Points, we currently value Hilton Honors points at 0.5 cents each, which means the full 15,000-point bonus is worth roughly $75. That’s not enough to justify booking extra stays or going out of your way to take advantage of this promotion.

However, if you’re a frequent Hilton guest who expects to complete 5 stays in a 6-month window anyway, it’s a nice little bonus on top of your regular base and elite earnings. But if you’re considering booking with a competing brand or paying out of pocket elsewhere, $75 in bonus points isn’t enough to swing the decision. Treat this as a bonus, not a reason to change your plans.

Final Thoughts

If Hilton sent this offer to your account, mull it over. There’s no downside to registering when an upcoming stay approaches, and the bonus points will add up if you have Hilton stays on the calendar.

Just don’t reshape your travel plans around 15,000 Hilton points. The math simply doesn’t support it. However, if you’re already heading to a Hilton property, you might as well grab the extra points.
