Update 8/24/21: Emails are arriving today with the subject line, “Your Points Have Arrived”. Don’t forget to click the link in the email to claim your points. You’ll need to click the link and log in. Assuming you click through the email, it should pre-populate the code you need on the next page (if not, the code is in the email) so you can claim the points. Once you do, the points will be immediately added to your account. You must claim the points by 10/31/21, so be sure to do it before you forget.
This is what the email looked like:
There was a claim code below that part of the email, but clicking the “Get Your Points” link and logging in automatically populated the code.
Note that the rest of the original post follows, but the promotion itself has since expired.

Don’t forget to do so by 10/31.
Wyndham Rewards is the sponsor of a golf tournament this week and as part of their promotion for the event they’re offering 750 bonus points per day for four days to the first 5,000 people who answer a golf-related question correctly.
The Deal
- Watch the Wyndham Championship on August 12-15 on Golf Channel and CBS. At approximately 4 p.m. ET each day, log-on to https://wynpointsparadise.com/trivia and answer the question of the day.
- 8/12 trivia answer: LIVE YOUR BUCKET LIST.
- 8/13 trivia answer: Brandt Snedeker
- 8/14 trivia answer: Beach Ball
- 8/15 trivia answer: 18th Tee
Key Terms
- The first 5,000 members to answer the question correctly will each be awarded 750 points for that day.
Quick Thoughts
If you’re not busy at 4pm ET each day from Thursday to Sunday, it could be worth taking part in this competition as I imagine there won’t be 5,000 people immediately trying to take part and so you should get 750 bonus points each day. I’ve no idea how easy the question will be, but hopefully a little bit of Googling will provide the answer if you’re not a golf fan.
If you happen to be at the Wyndham Championship, it looks like there’s an additional promotion available in-person that can be even more rewarding as they’re offering up to 15,000 total bonus points over the course of the four day tournament. Here are the terms for that in-person offer:
- Open only to attendees of the Wyndham Championship in attendance at the Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, NC, 18+.
- Begins at the opening of public hours on 8/12/21 and ends two (2) hours prior to the close of public hours on 8/15/21.
- Earn a designated and increasing number of points for each Points Paradise QR code you scan with your web-enabled mobile device for a total of up to 15,000 points (ARV: $195) over the 4-day game period, subject to verification.
- Participants will earn stamps for each QR code scanned throughout the course. Each stamp will have an associated point value that will be automatically converted to actual Wyndham Rewards points. Earning points is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements.
- For complete Terms & Conditions, visit wynpointsparadise.com.
- The daily cap on the number of Wyndham Rewards points to be distributed each day during the Game Period is 21,250,000 or as such amount may be increased in accordance with the next sentence (“Daily Cap”). In the event a Daily Cap is not reached, remaining points for that day will roll over to subsequent day(s), if applicable.
- No more than 85,000,000 Wyndham Rewards points will be distributed over the four-day Game Period.
- Participants must be or become a Wyndham Rewards member in order to receive points earned.
- Points must be claimed by 10/31/21.

[…] Update 8/24/21: You actually need to claim these points. An email has been sent out with the subject line ‘Your Points Have Arrived’. There’s a link in there that needs to be clicked. Hat tip to FM […]
thanks. I had received the email, but mostly ignored it until I saw your notice that we have to claim the points
Thanks for posting this. Just got my 4100 points! When you click on the link if it opens in the Wyndham app it won’t work so you need to open it in a web browser.
For those interested, I was able to claim both P1 and P2’s points under the same account.
Same for me. Actually 3 players in my case.
So how (& when) will we be asked to move the points to our Wyndham Rewards Account ?
The full terms state the following: Winners will receive an email from Wyndham Rewards within 7 to 10 business days after prize notification with a unique link redeemable for the designated number of Wyndham Rewards points awarded.
Thanks for all of the updates. I am the current points leader (thegoose107) with 17,000 points. Wife currently has 16,300 (thegoose100). Easy way to build up balances.
nice going. were you there?
Yea. Went last 3 days.
that explains it. I thought 3,000 was the max until some posted a few QR links. 3,900 now. Guess the points could pay for the admission tickets!
Son was military, so tickets were free. Between wife & I 33,000 points, enough for a couple of free nights. I thought it was a great promotion. Just lucky that I was going to the tournament anyway.
at DOC you can see in the comments some links to score an extra 900 points. Worked for me.
Thank you Stephen Pepper!
I scored 3,000 points for P2! Woot!
Thanks for the heads-up on this promotion, which I never would have heard about otherwise. I haven’t used my Wyndham account in ages, so it’s currently at zero, but 3000 free points will give it a nice boost.
When I choose 18th hole, the site says I did not answer correctly. Over 5k people?
The answer is 18th tee, not 18th hole.
18th tee (August 15)
Any idea when today’s trivia question will get posted? I am still seeing yesterday’s question about the tee-marker design
It’s at 4pm ET each day.
2,250 points…close it out tomorrow.
Easy, easy, EASY!!
