What happened
Hilton Honors is selling points with a 100% bonus from August 5 through September 25, 2026, and has raised the yearly purchase cap to 300,000 points before bonus from the usual 80,000. Buying 300,000 points credits 600,000 at 0.5 U.S. cents each.
The bonus applies to purchases of 5,000 points or more on the Hilton Honors purchase page. Points post within 48 hours. Purchased points do not count toward elite qualification. Buys are non-refundable and cannot be stacked with other offers. Hilton may change or end the bonus at any time. Some members may see a different bonus, including a triple rather than 100%.
This is the fourth Hilton points-purchase promotion of 2026. Fifth-night-free awards still help at expensive resorts after recent devaluations.
Buy only for nights already on the award calendar if 0.5 cents a point beats cash.
