ALL Accor

Amex has an offer for a $100 statement credit after spending $500 or more at participating Accor properties between August 3 and December 2, 2026. You must enroll in the offer by November 2, 2026 and book directly through Accor. You can view the list of participating properties here. Accor points have a fixed redemption value of 2 euro cents each and can be combined with cash, including when paying at checkout. That means you could redeem points for part of your stay and charge at least $500 to your enrolled Amex card to trigger the statement credit.

Accor elite status can unlock valuable airline status with both Kenya Airways and Qatar Airways, which can then give you valuable perks on Skyteam and oneworld partners. If you are an Accor Gold member, you can pay $299 to match to Kenya Airways Platinum for 12 months. This will give you SkyTeam Elite Plus benefits like free checked bags, priority services, preferred seating, and lounge access on eligible international SkyTeam trips (you won't get Delta SkyClub access on domestic flights). Accor Platinum members can link their account with Qatar Airways, complete one eligible paid Qatar flight and match to Qatar Gold. Qatar Gold includes oneworld Sapphire status and access to lounges such as American Admirals Clubs, Flagship Lounges, and Alaska Lounges, even when flying domestically. If you recently took advantage of Bilt's August Rent Day promotion to obtain Accor Gold or Platinum status, then this will be even easier and cheaper for you. The one thing to look out for is that a Qatar match has a limited annual enrollment cap, so availability is not guaranteed. Be sure to research this before going the Qatar route as you may have to wait until 2027 for it to reset.

Instead of its usual transfer bonus, Bilt's August 1 Rent Day promotion offers a status match with ALL Accor. Members without status or with Silver status can transfer 5,000 Bilt points to receive Accor Silver status, Gold members can transfer 5,000 Bilt points (which become 3,333 Accor points) to match to Accor Gold, and Platinum members can transfer 15,000 Bilt points (10,000 Accor points) to match to Accor Platinum. Bilt transfers to Accor at a 3:2 ratio, and Accor points have a fixed redemption value of 2 euro cents each. Matches to Silver and Gold status will be good for 12 months, while matches to Platinum will be good through December 31, 2027). Each level of elite status offers varying perks, like room upgrades, late checkout, welcome amenities, lounge access, and suite upgrade certificates, among others. We rarely advise transferring speculatively, but this is a bit of a different situation as status comes with each transfer. If you will have any Accor stays coming up in the next year, this may be a worthwhile use of points.

Participating bank and hotel rewards programs are offering a 10% transfer bonus to Cathay Pacific Asia Miles. The standard transfer ratio varies by participating program, so with the bonus, you’ll receive 10% more Asia Miles than the standard transfer amount. The bonus is capped at 10,000 Asia Miles per member across all participating partners combined. Registration is required. Offer expires August 28, 2026. Bonuses may not be instant, as they will be credited within approximately 12 weeks after the transfers are made.
