In other words, a 10,000 points reward night costs $65.72 at this price.

With 45,500 points you can then use Points & Cash reward rates to buy more points at even lower rates for hotels like InterContinental Chicago Magnificent Mile offering 20,000 points at $115 for a purchase rate of $5.75 per 1,000 points or $57.50 for 10,000 points.

    Do you know if buying points resets the points expiration for IHG? I have 10k about to expire next week and trying to find a cheap way to extend. Thanks!

    I do not know. There is no specific reference to buy points in the IHG Rewards Club terms.

    Seems to me that buying points is an earn activity. I purchased a Points & Cash night last month and the 5,000 points I bought show up as an earn activity.

    Point Expiration. CLUB LEVEL MEMBERSHIP POINTS (SEE MEMBER BENEFITS, INCLUDING LEVELS OF MEMBERSHIP, HERE) WILL EXPIRE IF YOUR MEMBERSHIP ACCOUNT BECOMES INACTIVE FOR ANY PERIOD OF TWELVE (12) MONTHS OR LONGER, WHICH MEANS YOUR POINTS WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR ACCOUNT AND WILL NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE FOR REDEMPTION. To maintain the Points in your membership account, you must have at least one “earn” or “redeem” transaction posted to your account every twelve (12) months. Use of the one night per year provided to IHG Rewards Club credit card holders does not constitute an “earn” or “redeem” activity to prevent Point expiration. If you redeem Points for a Stay and subsequently cancel that Stay, the redemption activity does not prevent Point expiration. Points do not expire for current Elite Members, although Points may expire twelve (12) months after an Elite Member’s account moves to Club level if there is no “earn” or “redeem” activity during those twelve (12) months.

    You’d be crazy to buy IHG points now after the recent massive devaluations, including the gutting of Pointbreaks.
