Wyndham Is Giving Members Free Status Upgrades for the Holidays

Nov 05, 2026 · By Tyler Glatt
Exterior of the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach.

Wyndham Rewards is spreading a little holiday cheer with complimentary elite status upgrades for its members. And if you’ve already reached the program’s highest tier, there’s something for you, too.

Through December 30, 2026, Wyndham Rewards Blue, Gold, and Platinum members worldwide can claim a complimentary one-tier status upgrade, valid through December 31, 2026.

Here’s what each upgrade maps to:

  • Blue → Gold
  • Gold → Platinum
  • Platinum → Diamond

Depending on your new tier, benefits can include bonus points on eligible stays, preferred rooms, early check-in, late checkout, and potential suite upgrades.

What About Existing Diamond Members?

Wyndham isn’t leaving its top-tier members out of the promotion. Instead, Diamond members can claim one of the following benefits:

  • U.S. Diamond members: Two complimentary months of Wyndham Rewards Insider, a subscription offering savings and perks on hotels, flights, cruises, rental cars, and more.
  • U.S. Diamond members already enrolled in Insider: 3,000 bonus Wyndham Rewards points.
  • Diamond members outside the U.S.: 3,000 bonus Wyndham Rewards points.

Wyndham Rewards award nights start at 7,500 points, but members can use as few as 1,500 points plus cash toward eligible stays.

How to Claim Your Free Upgrade

To take advantage of the promotion, visit this landing page and claim your complimentary upgrade by December 30, 2026.

The upgraded status is only valid through the end of the year, so there’s a relatively short window to use the additional perks. But if you’ve got an upcoming Wyndham stay, it’s still an easy way to get a little more out of it without having to meet any additional stay requirements.
