Keep in mind not 44x per dollar spent because Hilton non CC spend does not apply to taxes and fees which usually are a good 15%-20% chunk. My guesstimate puts it around 35x.

Yep just to add though, the 100k max is per stay from Hilton, so you will still get 14x CC spend if you use your card, netting you 114k points for $10k spend, which is so much less than 440k points.

Edit: my math is terrible, it’s 140k from CC spend if you spend 10k.
