Radisson Americas extended points expiration to June 20, 2022, but many members received 100 free points that extends the account to November 2023
To extend the expiration date without a stay:
To extend the expiration date without a stay:
- Buy 1000 points for $7
- Convert 2000 points to 200 miles
- Book an award and cancel
- Earn points from e-Rewards
- Use points for a charity donation, gift card, or TSA PreCheck
- Earn points from the personal or business visa (only the 2 personal cards are open to new applicants)
- May be a way to earn points from Radisson for Business
Best way to extend the points expiration?

I'm perplexed as to why people are concerned about their points expiring given that as long as you either earn points or redeem points for a stay within 24 months, they don't expire. Even those that may be sitting on a boatload of points would surely redeem some of them every 24 months. No?
Does transferring between the two Radisson programs reset the clock?

I just lost all my points on Dec 31, 2021. Do they normally give courtesy reactivations? I was expecting it to be made active further:

Did you manage to get yours reactivated? It's a little unfair and confusing that "Radisson Hotels" (international) extended points through June 2022 but Radisson America did not.

If I transfer points from the Americas program to non-Americas, I see fewer ways to earn in the US: hotel stay, meeting, car rental, in person shopping at Bicester Village, buy/gift points. I'm not sure all US car rentals even support both programs. I assume booking/canceling an award or buying points keeps points alive in both programs.
Are there other ways to keep points alive in the non-Americas program?

Does this (buying 1000 points) work for either/both the America's silo and also the Global silo?
FWIW, today I transferred a small number of points (under 100) from Americas to Global. Neither expiration date has changed (at least in the few hours after the successful transfer).

Just going by the "expiration date" shown on the websites. Izzat the status expiration rather than the points?

It is. For a supporting data point, my very-last-ever US Bank annual bonus just posted, and my Americas account still shows 3/23 exp. Only customer service can tell you your points expiration date

BTW, does one must call to transfer points to another person’s account?
Ages ago I used online email form to request point transfer between spouses. I am thinking about consolidating all pts to one single account before moving some to the Rest of the World.
