Eligible new applicants for the Hilton Honors American Express® Card can earn a welcome offer of up to 70,000 Hilton Honors points and a Free Night Reward:

  • Earn 60,000 Hilton Honors points and a Free Night Reward after spending $3,000 in purchases on your card within the first 3 months of cardmembership
  • Plus, earn an additional 10,000 points when you spend $500 in month 13 of cardmembership

Earning Hilton Honors Points

The Hilton Honors American Express® Card earns Hilton Honors points for all purchases made on the card:

  • Earn 6 Hilton Honors points for every $1 in eligible Card purchases at participating Hilton brands, plus the Points you already earn as a Hilton Honors Member
  • Earn 4 Hilton Honors points for every $1 in eligible Card purchases at gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants in Canada
  • Earn 2 Hilton Honors points for every $1 in all other Card purchases

Redeeming Hilton Honors Points

Hilton Honors points can be redeemed for stays at over 9,000 Hilton hotels, including luxury brands such as the Waldorf Astoria and the Conrad. The nightly point cost varies based on the hotel or resort, with the more aspirational and luxury properties costing upwards of 200,000+ Hilton Honors points per night.

Hilton Honors members with at least Silver Elite status will receive the fifth night free on Hilton Honors points booking, which means making a five-night stay entirely on points is the best way to get the most value from your Hilton Honors points.
