Wyndham has just brought back its very popular (and very generous) status match. So if you hold elite status with almost any other hotel chain, you match yourself to Wyndham Rewards elite status for free.

This status match opportunity is a great way to try out a new program. You can easily extend it through the end of 2026 and even unlock top-tier elite status.

Let’s take a look at the details and how you can get signed up.

Is It Worth It?

This is a very generous status match/challenge from Wyndham Rewards, so even if you have the lowest level of status with a competitor, it is worth registering if you have an upcoming stay in the next 90 days.

Plus, if you have a mid- or top-tier status, you can match it to Diamond status and lock it in for more than a year just by staying 10 nights. Since it is relatively easy to find inexpensive Wyndham locations, this could be an affordable way to secure elite status. Diamond status includes perks, such as suite upgrades, early check-in, late checkout, increased bonus points, and welcome amenities at select brands.

In fact, if you’ve got either The Platinum Card® from American Express or The Business Platinum Card® from American Express in your wallet, you may already have elite status, such as Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite or Hilton Honors Gold (enrollment required), making this match even easier.

Hot Tip:

Don’t want to status match? The Wyndham Rewards® Earner℠ Business Card grants you complimentary Diamond status for as long as you hold the card.

Final Thoughts

If you’ve been wanting to try out Wyndham Rewards elite status, this is a great opportunity.

You can status match simply by holding the most basic level of status with other hotels, or match all the way up to top-tier Diamond status if you have higher status with a competitor. Plus, you can lock it in through 2026 by staying just 10 nights.

Just be sure to complete the requirements within 90 days of registering so you don’t miss your benefits window.
