IHG just launched a promotion where you can earn up $100 gift card and 4,000 IHG bonus points. All you have to do is complete two stays at an IHG hotel and pay with any Mastercard credit card. This promotion runs November 1, 2017 through February 1, 2018.
To receive the bonus points, you must first register for the promotion. Additionally, at least one of the two stays must be at least a two night stay. You also must book directly with IHG, not a third-party reservation site. The Mastercard Reward Cards must be redeemed at the redemption portal by 11:59:59 PM ET on March 31, 2018 or award of the Mastercard Rewards Card will be forfeited.
To earn the Rewards Card and Bonus points:
After your first two completed stays, you’ll receive a Rewards Card based on the IHG brand that you stayed in:
- If at least one stay is completed at an InterContinental Hotel: $100 Rewards Card
- If at least one stay is completed at a Crowne Plaza, Hotel Indigo, or Even Hotel: $75 Rewards Card
- If at least one stay is completed at a Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Club Vacations, Holiday Inn Resort, Holiday Inn Express, Candlewood Suites, Staybridge Suites or Hualuxe Hotel: $50 Rewards Card
After you complete the initial stay stays and earn the rewards card, you’ll receive an additional 4,000 points after staying two more nights at any IHG hotel.

Does the stay have to be within the US, or does overseas count too?
I assume this would stack with accelerate?
My wife has an offer for accelerate that gives her 33K for 1 night stay. A second night would give her an additional 3K plus if combined with this would give her 4K and $50. Might be worth it to get an additonal 7K for like $15 (if you net out the $50) at the local Candlewood.
@Mark – Yes it will stack!
I appreciate all of the great info that you routinely provide.
I would like to point out that the title of the article is incorrect. As you pointed out in the article, you cannot earn the reward by staying “two nights.” You can only earn an award under this promo with two separate stays, one of which must be at least two nights itself. So the fewest nights you can stay and get the reward is three nights, spread across two stays.
Has anyone reveived their gift card yet after completing this program? I have completed mine but haven’t received a link.
