You may see offers for higher earning rates at specific destinations (double points in Latin America) or fixed bonuses on eligible stays (earn 7,500 bonus points after staying three or more nights). These offers are worth checking before you book.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/news\/wyndham-rewards\/bonus-points-promotion\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Current Wyndham Rewards Promotions<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Can_you_earn_points_on_more_than_one_room_at_a_time\">Can you earn points on more than one room at a time?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In short, yes!
