At a Glance

Choice Privileges is a hotel loyalty program designed to reward paid stays and partner activity with points-based value. The program includes 5 membership levels (Member, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Titanium) with incremental benefits as activity grows. In 2026, the program introduced the new Titanium elite tier and Elite Qualifying Credits (EQCs) system, making elite status easier to achieve while rewarding frequent travelers with higher perks. Members can earn through qualifying stays, credit card spending, and partner activity, then redeem for free nights, experiences, and other rewards. For elite members, points never expire.
