Update 7/8/24: Offer extended through September 30th, 2024
The Offer
- IHG is offering 500 bonus points when you download the app
The Fine Print
- To participate in the “App Download Bonus Offer” promotion (the “Promotion”), an individual must have an active valid IHG One Rewards member account. The member must first register their member number or email associated with their IHG One Rewards account to be eligible for the Promotion. Once a member has registered, the member can earn 500 IHG One Rewards bonus points after downloading the IHG app and using the app to sign in to their IHG One Rewards account. Registration and completion of the download and sign-in must occur by 30 June 2024, subject to IHG’s right to end the registration period sooner if deemed necessary by IHG because of irregularities or other issues relating to the Promotion. If registration for the Promotion has been closed or deactivated, it means the Promotion has ended.
- This promotional offer can only be redeemed once per member, and a maximum of 500 IHG One Rewards bonus points can be achieved. The time needed for awarding points can vary with each promotion, so please allow up to 6 weeks for the bonus points to be posted to the recipient’s member account. The Promotion is valid for first time app downloads only.
Our Verdict
Only works if you’ve never downloaded the app before. Not as good as the previous 1,000 point deal last seen in 2022.
To fix the login issue – user numeric membership id vs. your email. Once I tried using my member id and pass it worked. Using browser, I can use email address – which does not seem to work for the app.
I got an error that said its invalid, and opened a digital concierge ticket.
after getting to a live agent, they claimed it was for new members only, and after pasteing the terms and conditions into chat, they gave me 1000 points for the trouble. its possible its only for new ihg rewards signups
When I try to register using your link I get the following error:
“The code you entered is invalid for your membership. Please check the qualification requirements for your country, region or programme.”
If I clear my cache and log in the offer doesn’t appear anywhere on my list of offers.

Offer extended through September 30th, 2024.
Points took ~3 weeks to post last time, so don’t wait until the last minute if you’re doing this for activity to keep points alive.
Thanks for the heads up. Will do it in late April to help extend the live of my points.
Do we get the points if we uninstall and then reinstall the app on the phone?
I don’t think so. Seems like it’s just for first time app installs
Ihg program has gotten surprisingly better last few years
