Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Good news for folks who want more Hilton points!  Via The Points Guy, through September 16, 2016, you can get up to a 50% discount when you buy Hilton points.

    Log into your Hilton account here to see if you’ve been offered 30%, 40%, or 50% off.
    Save Money With Hilton Points at the Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem!

    I’ll explain how to get this deal.  And help you decide whether it makes sense for you!

    Buy Discounted Hilton Points

    Link:   Hilton Buy Points Promotion

    Hilton points usually cost 1 cent per point.  But with this deal, you can buy points for as little as 0.5 cents per point (with a 50% discount).

    It’s worth checking your account to see what discount you’ve been targeted to receive.  Especially if you need to top off your Hilton account for an upcoming stay!

    You must purchase your discounted points by September 16, 2016.  And you can buy up to 80,000 Hilton points per calendar year.

    Hilton hotels include DoubleTree, Canopy, Conrad, Curio, Embassy Suites, Hampton Inn, Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn, Home2Suites, Homewood Suites, and Waldorf Astoria brand hotels.

    Is This a Good Deal?

    I like to stay at Hilton hotels for free using Hilton points I earn with credit cards.  But buying discounted points could be a good way to save on paid stays at expensive Hilton hotels.  Or to save money if you’re just short of enough points for an award night.

    In Certain Cases, Buying Points Is Cheaper Than Paying the Cash Price for a Room

    Sometimes buying the points you need for a hotel stay can be cheaper than paying cash!

    For example, I found nights in October 2016, at the top-category Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem for ~$597 or 80,000 Hilton points per night.

    Buying 80,000 Hilton points with a 50% discount for $400 would save you nearly ~$200!

    Keep in mind, buying hotel points is NOT always a great deal.  

    But Sometimes It’s Not

    For example, rooms at the Hampton Inn Cleveland Downtown in October 2016, cost ~$140 or 30,000 Hilton points.  If you bought 30,000 points with a 50% discount, you’d pay $150 (30,000 points X 0.5 cents per point). Always make sure you’re getting the best deal!  After all, it’s about Big Travel with Small Money! 🙂

    More Ways to Earn Hilton Points

    There are lots of cheap ways to earn Hilton points!
