Hilton Honors sells points at 0.455 cents with a 120% bonus

Hilton Honors is selling points to targeted members with a 120% bonus to 21 November 2026, at 0.455 cents a point before tax.

Hilton Honors sells points at 0.455 cents with a 120% bonus

Hilton Honors is selling points to targeted members with a 120% bonus on the purchase. Hilton's terms set the window from 7 October 2026 to 11:59 p.m. Eastern on 21 November 2026. A member buys at least 5,000 base points to receive the bonus. Every purchase runs through the purchase page on HiltonHonors.com.

Points post within 48 hours of a completed purchase. The purchase is non-refundable. Purchased points carry no elite tier credit. Canadian residents pay GST and HST, with QST added in Quebec.

The price step from one cent to 0.455 cents

Hilton's base price is $10 per 1,000 points. The 120% bonus multiplies the points delivered by 2.2, which puts the cost at 0.455 cents a point before tax. A purchase of 5,000 base points costs $50 and delivers 11,000 points. A purchase of 100,000 base points costs $1,000 and delivers 220,000 points.

Points.com processes the transaction. The charge posts outside the hotel bill, and a co-branded Hilton card earns no hotel bonus on it.

The cap and the room left under it

Hilton limits purchases during the promotion to 240,000 base points per calendar year. That ceiling pays out 528,000 points after the bonus and costs $2,400 before tax. AwardWallet's sale history records the previous promotion, which closed on 25 September 2026, with a 600,000-point maximum including its 100% bonus. A member who bought to that ceiling has less room under this one.

The bonus is targeted. Some members see a rate below 120% in their own account, and the rate in the account governs the purchase.

The purchase price against a reward night

At 0.455 cents a point, a 10,000-point reward night costs $45.45 in purchased points, a 15,000-point night costs $68.18, and a 150,000-point award at a top-tier property costs $681.82. AwardWallet calls the 120% rate the best bonus Hilton Honors has offered on purchased points, and every promotion in its sale history from February 2017 through September 2026 tops out at a 100% bonus.

What the terms leave open

The terms name no property list, set no stay requirement and offer no route to a higher bonus rate. Neither Hilton nor the publishers carrying the offer report how many members were targeted for the 120% rate.
