Wyndham Rewards is introducing a new way for travelers to maximize their trips with the debut of Wyndham Rewards Insider℠. For $95 a year, members can unlock a collection of benefits that include automatic Gold level status, double-dip points earning, concierge services, and savings across hotels, flights, cruises, car rentals, entertainment, and more.
The Wyndham Rewards Insider℠ subscription builds off of Wyndham’s loyalty program by offering travelers an elevated, all-encompassing experience. Designed to pay for itself in as little as one trip, the new program gives members exclusive access to expanded travel deals and entertainment opportunities through a growing network of partners. One of the most notable additions is a new collaboration with Ticketmaster. It allows members to earn and redeem points on more than 50,000 concerts and live events. The program also offers exclusive discounts at top attractions, including Walt Disney World® Resort, SeaWorld® Orlando, and LEGOLAND® California Resort.
Wyndham Rewards Insider members can expect meaningful savings across their trips:
- Hotels by Wyndham: 10% or more off standard rates at over 8,000 hotels worldwide (plus automatic upgrade to Gold status and 50% more points for Gold, Platinum, and Diamond members).
- Flights and Cruises: Up to 5% off domestic flights, 15% off international flights, and up to 30% off cruises.
- Car Rentals and Transfers: At least 10% off car rentals and up to 15% off tours, transfers, and limo services.
In addition to these travel discounts, members can also enjoy concierge services that offer personalized assistance for everything from concert tickets to VIP experiences.
One of the most powerful aspects of Wyndham Rewards Insider℠ is its double-dip points feature. Members earn Wyndham Rewards points on nearly every booking made through the Insider platform, while still collecting partner rewards for flights, car rentals, and cruises. Hotel stays, tours, and activities earn 10x points per $1 spent, while Ticketmaster purchases earn 2x points per $1 (up to 50,000 points annually).
To celebrate the launch, travelers who sign up before the end of the year will receive 14 months for the price of 12 and a 7,500-point bonus (enough for a free night at thousands of Wyndham properties). With average savings on hotels, airfare, and car rentals, the program’s value quickly surpasses its annual fee. For example, a family booking a five-night all-inclusive vacation at Wyndham Alltra Samana with flights and transfers can save over $850 as Wyndham Rewards Insiders℠. Even shorter trips offer strong value, such as a three-night Orlando getaway with theme park tickets and car rental (where members can save more than $580).
Wyndham Rewards continues to be recognized for its generous earning structure and ease of redemption. Members earn a minimum of 1,000 points per qualified stay (with free nights starting at just 7,500 points). The program also offers one of the quickest paths to elite status as it is achievable after only five nights and continues to expand its partnerships through initiatives like Wyndham Rewards Experiences, which provides members with access to exclusive entertainment and sporting events.

Scott Strickland, Chief Commercial Officer of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, said:
The world of travel rewards is changing. People today want more than just points—they want breadth, flexibility and value they can feel across every aspect of their journey. Historically, such benefits were reserved only for the travel elite, off-limits to those without high-fee, premium credit cards. Wyndham Rewards Insider flips that script, putting the power back in the hands of everyday travelers—all for less than the cost of a night out.”
Anthony’s Take: If you’re a Wyndham loyalist or just planning a family vacation at one of its properties, this new program can save some money.
