IHG Q2/Q3 2019 ‘Accelerate’ Promotion: Make Every Stay Count

IHG 2019 Q4 accelerate offer available by clicking here.

Update 6/27/19: Looks like more people are targeted for this deal. Must register by August 17th, 2019. Not sure why IHG did it like this, I guess they wanted to split test to determine how much bookings increased when the Accelerate promo was live?

Update 5/1/19: Reposting as the offer should be showing up for people who weren’t able to register before. Looks like some people are still seeing an error, but might be due to being enrolled in other promotions?

Our Verdict

Feel free to share your offers in the comments below. IHG Accelerate is actually one of the few hotel promotions where sometimes I’ll actually change my booking behavior because the promotions can be extremely generous, unfortunately that isn’t the case for me this time but fingers crossed others get some better offers. Hilton recently announced a new promotion as well. If you’re getting an error message, don’t worry too much as a lot of others are getting a similar message we will repost when it’s working for everybody.

Also, keep an eye on additional promotions added to the list… I had (after I registered) another promo added extra 2K for a stay in June… and the same one stay as usual counts towards any applicable part of the promo. So my 1 stay counted towards “discover brands”, and also earned extra 2K on a separate promo.
Good luck.

“Oh, no! Based on your current earning preference, you aren’t eligible for this offer. But here are others you might like: View other IHG® Rewards Club offers now.”

How do I change my current earning preference?

Tried clicking on the Linkie, didn’t get any error message, but a link that reads in the middle of the page “…We appreciate your loyalty. Please see IHG® Rewards Club offers available now….”

I checked my account and didn’t see any offer made available..

Does this mean then that I’m not eligible for this offer? I have an Chase IHG credit card and currently a Platinum member.

Complete all your offers to get 68,200 total bonus points.

-Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 8,000 bonus points.

-Stay at 2 IHG® hotel(s) and earn 5,600 bonus points.

We’re staying in Berlin Airport Holiday Inn July 29-31. I’d want to make this work, but I guess I’d actually need to book 2 more stays (with Saturday – I wish I’d only need one night to attache Saturday to our actual booking) right?

my offer this period is not good. Get double points on stays up to 40,000. I already get double points because I’m Spire Elite, does that mean I now get triple or quadruple points. Either way, the worst offer I’ve had. Oh, well

Mine:

16,800: Discover our brands // stay at 4 brands.
8,800: Saturday stays bonus // Stay 4 weekend(s) including Saturday
2,800: Stay at 4 IHG hotels
1,500: Spend on IHG Rewards Select Credit Card

4/4 of the above offers = 29,900 bonus.

Got “Stay in 2 brands” for around 8500 but also a “Stay in 5 IHG Hotels” for around 14k. Based on the Terms of the 5 Stays one, it sounds like it also has to be 5 different brands? Anybody have experience with this type they can chime in to confirm?

Double points after the first stay up to 40k. That’s it. Just the one offer. Odd.

Worth checking to see if accelerate promo offer is in your account again. Previously mine wasn’t showing but it is now.
