Wyndham Rewards Extends Partnership with Caesars Rewards, Offers Exclusive Perks through 2021
Wyndham Rewards®, the world’s most generous rewards program, today announced the extension through 2021 of its partnership with Caesars Entertainment and Caesars Rewards®, the world’s leading casino and entertainment loyalty program. The collaboration delivers industry leading perks for members of both programs across Wyndham’s approximately 9,300 hotels and more than 30 world-class Caesars destinations.
Through the affiliation, Wyndham Rewards members have the ability to earn and redeem points at participating Caesars Rewards destinations across the U.S. and Canada when they book direct through Wyndham channels. They also have the option to transfer Wyndham Rewards points to Caesars Rewards credits, or vice versa, at a 1:1 ratio, up to 30,000 points per year. Additionally, Platinum and Diamond members of both programs may match to the corresponding level of their non-primary program—Platinum to Platinum, Diamond to Diamond—while Caesars Rewards Seven Stars members may match to Wyndham Rewards Diamond.
“As the travel landscape continues to evolve, it’s more important than ever that we continue to connect our members with best-in-class partners and benefits while letting them know that when they’re ready to travel, we’ll be ready to welcome them,” said Eliot Hamlisch, executive vice president of loyalty and revenue optimization for Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “Access to Caesars Rewards benefits provides our members exciting and diverse gaming, hospitality and entertainment options.”
“Caesars Rewards continues to set the standard for loyalty within gaming and entertainment, including collaboration with likeminded partners to further elevate member benefits,” said Chris Holdren, EVP and Chief Marketing Officer, Caesars Entertainment. “With Wyndham Rewards, our members are able to make their travels even more rewarding, thanks to Wyndham’s unparalleled portfolio of properties and generous rewards.”
Wyndham Rewards champions the everyday traveler with a program that is simple, flexible and generous. Those values become even more important in times of uncertainty, and as members consider future plans in the wake of COVID-19, Wyndham continues to update its policies worldwide to provide increased travel flexibility—relaxing cancellation policies, extending membership benefits and delaying points expiration.
