IHG Business Rewards is currently running a promotion offering members double points on stays, meeting rooms, and events booked before June 30, 2023 and completed before August 31, 2023.
We haven't seen a lot of promotions from IHG Business Rewards, and we haven't even discussed the platform much on our website so far. So, here's an overview of what IHG Business Rewards is and the promotion currently running.
What is IHG Business Rewards?
IHG Business Rewards is a loyalty program for travel bookers and small business owners to earn bonus points on stays, meeting rooms, and event bookings at nearly 6,000 participating IHG Hotels & Resorts worldwide. All points earned are in addition to the points earned by individual IHG One Rewards members. So, this is a way of double dipping on eligible stays.
Any IHG One Rewards member can add an IHG Business Rewards account to their personal account. Thereafter, they will receive 3 points for every dollar spent by travelers connected to their IHG Business Rewards account. No points will be earned on their own travel. IHG Business Rewards points will be added to the IHG One Rewards account connected to the business account.
To earn IHG Business Rewards points, book a stay, event, or meeting room for another IHG One Rewards member through the corporate travel channel.
Bonus IHG One Rewards points earned through IHG Business Rewards count toward elite status. However, they will not receive any bonus for existing elite status. In other words, you will always receive 3 points per dollar, regardless of your elite status. The exception is the occasional promotion, such as the current offer to earn double points.
IHG Business Rewards points could take up to 45 days to post to the account. If you are making a lot of personal IHG hotel bookings, it could be possible to set up a family member with an IHG Business Rewards account to collect extra points on your stays.
2X Points with IHG Business Rewards
IHG Business Rewards has launched a promotion offering members 2X points on stays, meeting rooms, and events booked before June 30, 2023. In other words, IHG Business Rewards members will earn 6 points per dollar spent instead of the usual 3. This promotion is a return of the offer that ran in 2022.
Make sure to register for this promotion before making your first booking. After that, there's no limit to the number of bookings you can make before June 30. However, there's a limit of 120,000 points that can be earned with each booking. All stays and events must be completed before August 31, 2023.

Our Take
This is certainly a great promotion for IHG Business Rewards members to take advantage of. If you're not already a member, perhaps consider signing up now or having a family member or business associate do so.
Remember that IHG Business Rewards points are in addition to IHG One Rewards points. Check out the current IHG One Rewards promotions, such as 2,000 bonus points for every two nights. There's also a promotion running for a fast track to elite statuses before April 30, 2023. We also have a complete guide to the new IHG One Rewards program.
