You can get a $50 gift card when you stay 2 times at any Best Western hotel by May 18, 2014.
The $50 Best Western gift card is good at any Best Western hotel through September 1, 2014.
How to Get Your $50 Best Western Gift Card
Step 1 – Sign-Up for an Account
If you aren’t already a Best Western Rewards member, sign-up for an account.
Step 2 – Register for the Promotion
Register for the $50 gift card promotion.
Step 3 – Stay Twice
Complete 2 separate stays at any Best Western hotel.
How Long Will It Take to Get Your Gift Card?
You will be emailed your $50 gift card 2 to 3 weeks after your 2nd stay at Best Western. So make sure your current email address is updated in your Best Western account.
If you don’t have a valid email address in your account, your gift card will be sent to your mailing address within 4 to 6 weeks.
Because the gift card expires September 1, 2014, it’s probably most valuable to folks who plan to stay at a Best Western this summer. If you’re unsure of your summer plans, you may be able to sell it. According to Gift Card Granny, you can expect to receive ~73% of the card’s value ( ~$36).
Stack This Offer With Up to 20% Off
Best Western also has a promotion for 20% off on 2 stays through May 18, 2014. But only at some Best Western hotels. And your discount won’t always be 20%, sometimes you will only save 12%.
Note: You can NOT use the $50 gift card to pay for a 20% Internet Only Rate. But you can book rooms through the 20% discounted offer to GET the $50 gift card.
Bottom Line
You can get a $50 gift card after 2 separate stays at Best Western by May 18, 2014.
You may also be able to save up to 20% at some Best Western hotels. But the discount could be less than 20%.
State and Federal laws generally prohibit gift cards from expiring sooner than five years after issuance. How is this card getting around that law?
Also, this card is issued weeks after being earned, further limiting one’s ability to use it. Neither of these facts are clearly disclosed to the customer at time of purchase and not mentioned at all on the web page where you sign up for it. Looks like a scam.

Help. Can you give ad ice about how to work the British airways award system? I want to go SFO to Rome in May 2015. If I wait til the return date there are now seats to fly to. Do I book the go to and then pay to change reservation when return tickets are available?
@Margita – You can book 1-way now, but know that there are no guarantees that there will be seats for your return because award flights keep on changing.
