Information for all IHG® Rewards members
We value our members and their loyalty above all and want to offer more reasons for you to get away and stay with us – when the time is right. As we continue to monitor what's possible and adapt as necessary, we've made changes to our loyalty programme to help you enjoy your benefits longer.
All members’ programme status has been automatically extended through January 2022 based on status earned in 2019.
We’ve also made it easier to earn and maintain Elite status by extending the 25% reduction (nights or points) in Elite criteria. For our members in Greater China, click here for the latest information on IHG Rewards status.

Members who earned Spire Elite status in 2019 and had their status extended through January 2022 will receive the Choice benefit of 25,000 bonus points or gifting of Platinum Elite status by the end of March 2021.
Members who earned Spire Elite in 2020 received their Choice benefit at the time of achieving the status. To receive another Choice benefit in 2021, members will need to meet the 2021 tier threshold criteria.
For Gold, Platinum, and Spire Elite members, all qualifying nights stayed in 2020 will be rolled over into 2021 and count towards status earned in 2021.
Points never expire for all members with Elite status (Gold, Platinum and Spire) - a key benefit of our programme.
We have extended points expiry until 31 December 2021 for Club members (points normally expire after 12 months of inactivity).
Following the complimentary three-month membership extension provided on 15 March 2020, we have extended membership for a further three-months. Complimentary membership extension now totals six months.
Members will also receive an additional three-month extension on unredeemed Complimentary Weekend Nights – giving members six more months to redeem these certificates.
Extensions are not applicable for members who enrolled or renewed after 15 March 2020.
The Ambassador ‘Benefits Guarantee’ is suspended for stays up to and including 30 June 2020 due to COVID-19-related operational constraints.
