We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. 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.

    Hilton’s popular buy points bonus is back on — and it’s just as generous as the previous month’s promotion.

    You’ll receive a limited-time 100% bonus when you buy at least 10,000 Hilton points — this means you’re effectively purchasing Hilton points at half price. If you’ve been dreaming of a luxury getaway, or if you’ve already got hotel nights coming up, this could be away to dramatically reduce your out-of-pocket.

    Read our Hilton Honors review for more details on this super useful program.

    You can buy Hilton points through this deal and use them for stays at any Hilton hotel — like the unbelievable Waldorf Astoria Maldives. (Image by Hilton)

    Hilton buy points promotion

    You’ve got until December 28, 2019, at 11:59 pm Eastern Time, to receive a 100% bonus on Hilton points purchases of 10,000+ points. Normally, Hilton sells points for 1 cent each, so with this deal you can scoop them up for just 0.5 cents each.

    You can buy up to 160,000 points with this promotion and receive a bonus 160,000 points. If you max out this deal, you’ll receive 320,000 points for $1,600. Hilton points value depends on which hotel you book, but but this can be a smart way to “pre-pay” for your upcoming travel at a big discount. For example, the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi costs an average of $2,400 per night this coming spring — but it’s available for 120,000 points per night.

    This is a new resort, and quite possibly the new crown jewel of the ultra-luxury Waldorf Astoria brand. With this promotion, you can purchase the 120,000 points you need for a free night for just $600, and save $1,800+ on the room rate.

    And remember, any Hilton members with elite status (which you automatically receive if you have a Hilton credit card) will get the fifth award night free. You’d need to purchase 480,000 points for a five night stay at this hotel, but Hilton lets you pool points with anyone. You an a friend could both purchase points and combine them. If you purchased a total of 420,000 points, you’d spend $2,400. But you’d receive a stay worth $12,000! That’s like getting an 80% discount.

    There are tons of other hotels in which you can save big by purchasing Hilton points. I personally use my Hilton points for low-category hotels, because I tend to save the most. You can read my post on the subject for more details.

    This points sale can be a fantastic value. But don’t spend money unless you need to. You can earn tons of Hilton points by opening credit cards and meeting the minimum spending requirements:
