From May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020:
- $1 eligible spend @ a Hilton property = 10 base points
- $1 spend = 1 base poinT
From the OP link
Bonus Points earned through eligible purchases on your Card that post to your Hilton Honors account between May 1 and December 31, 2020 will be considered Base Points, which count toward elite tier qualification and Lifetime Diamond Status.
Wouldn’t the multiple also count as base points? For example spending at a department store earns 3x. So wouldnt $1000 spend earn 3000 base points towards Lifetime Diamond during May 1 - Dec 31? Instead of just 1,000 base points?
