What happened
Invited IHG One Rewards members who register can earn 1 extra Elite Qualifying Night for each paid qualifying stay night from 5 August through 29 September 2026, up to 5 bonus nights toward 2026 elite status and Milestone Rewards.
The member number must be registered before the stay. Nights completed before registration do not count. Qualifying stays need spend exceeding $30 USD per night or the local equivalent on a qualifying rate at a participating hotel. Almost all IHG hotels participate. Non-program Six Senses and Iberostar Beachfront Resorts do not. Award nights and Points & Cash stays are ineligible, as are bookings through online travel agencies. Only one registered member per room earns the bonus, and only one room per night counts. Credits can take up to 6 weeks to post, and IHG may claw back credits awarded in error.
Register the IHG number before any paid stay between 5 August and 29 September 2026 if an invitation arrived.
