For a limited time, the $0-annual-fee IHG One Rewards Traveler Credit Card has boosted its sign-up bonus for new cardholders, offering plenty of points to use toward future travel goals.
Those who apply by Nov. 20, 2024, can earn 100,000 bonus points after spending $2,000 on purchases on the card in the first three months from account opening. That can amount to up to two nights at over 5,700 IHG Hotel and Resort properties.
It’s a 20,000-point increase over the card’s previous bonus, and it maintains the same spending requirement. It’s a solid introductory offer for a $0-annual-fee credit card. The ongoing value of the card’s perks and rewards can also help you earn more free nights.
The card’s features include:
-
Up to 17 points total per $1 spent at IHG (5 from card, 10 from loyalty program, 2 from automatic elite status).
-
3 points per $1 spent on monthly bills, gas stations and restaurants.
-
2 points per $1 spent on all other purchases.
-
Perks that come with automatic silver status (20% bonus points, free internet, no blackout dates for rewards nights and more)
When you redeem points for a consecutive four-night IHG hotel stay, you’ll get a fourth Reward Night free that’s redeemable at the same hotel during the same stay. There’s also an opportunity to earn 10,000 bonus points after spending $10,000 every calendar year.
Overall, it’s a valuable pick if IHG or its properties are your preference for travel and you can pay off the card’s balance in full every month to avoid interest charges.
