Hotel Points expirationI’ve written about how to keep your airline miles from expiring without flying.  Here’s how to keep your hotel points from expiring without staying in a hotel!  Points expire in most US based airline program after 12 to 24 months of no earning or redemption activity.
Some programs like Choice and Wyndham hotels expire after 2 and 4 years and there is nothing you can do to extend the expiration, so you might as well use them before they expire.
Award Wallet is a good tool to track your miles and points balances and expiration dates.

                        HotelExpiration Policy       
                        Choice Hotels On December 31st, 2 years  after you earned the points.       
                        Club Carlson24 months of not earning or spending points       
                        Hilton 12 months of not earning or spending points       
                        Hyatt Gold12 months of not earning or spending points       
                        Marriott24 months of not earning points       
                        Priority ClubPoints Never Expire       
                        Starwood Hotels12 months of not earning or spending points       
                        WyndhamPoints expire after 4 years and you can't do anything to extend them beyond 4 years.

However, they will expire sooner (in 18 months)of not earning or spending points        But it is really, really easy to keep your hotel points active WITHOUT staying in the hotel!
Sometimes, all you need to do is to make an award booking and cancel it later, for free!  This will generate redemption activity when you make the award and earning activity when you cancel the award and reset the point expiration clock.  But be sure to check the cancellation policy when you book!
You can easily extend the expiration by buying something cheap or making a $1 donation from the airline’s online shopping mall, or using a credit card to keep your points active!
