Members who have elected to earn airline miles in their Member profile and qualify for one (1) or more of the Bonuses hereunder will earn such Bonus(es) in Wyndham Rewards points.

Quick Thoughts

This is an easy win. I did this previously, when the bonus was 3,000 points and it only took me a few minutes to earn a net 2,900 Wyndham Rewards points. After downloading the Bakkt app it only took a couple of minutes to register and then link my Wyndham account.

The 1,000 bonus points from that first step showed up straight away. I later redeemed 100 of those points for $0.35, at which point the 2,000 bonus points from the second step showed up.

Bakkt Wyndham points credited

Earning 2,900 net points + $0.35 for a few minutes of work was worth it to me even though I don’t anticipate using the Bakkt app again in the future.

Added the app, connected my Wyndham account successfully. I click on “convert” and declined to add bank account. But it does not list Wyndham in the convert account list, it only offers to add Choice Hotels to my Bakkt account. Suggestions?

Just got 3,650 net points like others have mentioned, but I got an error on the app when trying to link up my Wyndham account. I turned off WiFi and it worked using mobile data.

Just tried it and they dropped 3750 points into my Wyndham account (for a net of 3650)… not sure why it’s more than advertised but hey, who am I to complain? 🙂

I got it, too. They credited my Wyndham account 1000, 750, 1500 and 500, and I redeemed 100 points to trigger at least one of these credits. I guess even folks who aren’t active in Wyndham Rewards would earn enough points in this promo to earn a discounted room in the “Go Fast” category. FWIW, the process was pretty easy and the points credited immediately.

Mauro

So if we did they when they ran the promo for 3000 we are not eligible for this promo?

Gino

FYI landing page was updated and looks like deal is going to be extended again, but now up to 3500 points (net 3400 after converting 100). New deal expires March 31 per the landing page in the link above

Thanks Stephen. Still worked for me in creating a new WR account and Bakkt account and converting to get the 2900 WR pts, as of 3PM PST.

Rebecca Meredith

Nice!! Thanks – this was so easy 🙂

Jan W

Hey Stephen. Got the 1000 Wyndham points immediately. Just wondering if you keep a separate (and small balanced) checking account for things like this? Hesitant to give my “real” BOA account and was wondering how you handle this? Thanks!

Jan W

I must be missing something. How did you fund the 35 cents?

kayexelate

Thanks–easily done in 5 min. Big ? is, what can I do with 2900 Wyndham points? i had 0 points to begin with and now have 2900. I am a Diamond Member (thanks to you all!). Seems like I’d need to add more points to be able to utilize it for anything.

Easy to add more points by earning with the Wyndham earner credit cards or transfer from Capital One Venture cards. Redeem for Vacasa or Viva all-inclusive or Wydham hotel nights.

Art Leyenberger

Wow! That was easy. Thx for the tip.

robert

seriously easy, plus immediately posted to my wyndham acct

Gram

Guessing this is a one time deal? Did this in Dec 21.

Tahoe Trekker

Deal has been renewed to Mar 22

Hen Feder

Trying to take advantage last minute but not succeeding. Was able to sign up but when trying to make the 100 conversion receiving “Transaction Denied”, anyone had similar issue and found a solution?

Thanks!

Kyle

Ever have any luck? I’m getting that error message now as well.

Hen Feder

They asked me for a bunch of documents and it was the last day of the promotion, so I just gave up.

Neil

At first I couldn’t get past the verify challenge, but by disconnecting from the wifi, I was finally able to create an account. I was easily able to link my Wyndham account and got my 1000. But soon after, my account was inexplicably locked. So I had to upload photos of my ID and a selfie. Now I have to wait 5-7 business days to do step two. I understand this is a financial institution, so they need to be careful. And I was glad to get some free Wyndham points. Still, turned out to be more effort than I was expecting. Of course.

Adventure NML

I had the same issue, except mine got locked before I could even register for the Wyndham promo. Frustrating.
