Omni Hotels'\u00a0loyalty program, Select Guest, lets you earn and redeem \u201cOmni Credits\u201d for stays and on-property spending.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike most hotel loyalty programs, point expiration here doesn\u2019t depend on account activity. Instead, Omni Credits have a fixed lifespan from the date they\u2019re issued \u2014 whether you\u2019re a frequent guest or just an occasional visitor.

But, with credits expiring based on when they were earned instead of based on activity, it can be easy to lose track of when your Omni Credits expire. That is why it pays to keep a close eye on your Omni Select Guest Credits so expiration does not creep up on you. The easiest and best way to do so is by using AwardWallet. That way, you will receive a timely reminder if you have any points in danger of expiration, allowing you to take action.<\/p>\n<p>To add your Omni Select Guest account to AwardWallet, simply log in to your account and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/account\/add\/142\" rel=\"noopener\">link your Omni Select Guest account<\/a>. AwardWallet will notify you before your credits are set to expire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/features\/how-to-track-points-using-awardwallet\/\" rel=\"noopener\">How to Track Your Rewards Using AwardWallet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Our_Take\">Our Take<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Omni\u2019s fixed 36-month expiration window may seem more generous than many loyalty programs, but it also leaves no room for error. Once credits hit their expiration date, they\u2019re gone for good. If you stay with Omni regularly, you\u2019ll have plenty of opportunities to use them. But if your visits are sporadic, it\u2019s easy for credits to quietly expire in the background.<\/p>\n<p>The safest approach? Track your balance and expiration dates, plan redemptions in advance, and let tools like AwardWallet give you a heads-up before it\u2019s too late. That way, every credit you earn gets turned into an actual stay, upgrade, or on-property perk \u2014 not a missed opportunity.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ftoc\"><div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"toc_light_blue no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Page Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#Do_Omni_Hotels_Select_Guest_Credits_Expire\">Do Omni Hotels Select Guest Credits Expire?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Earning_Omni_Hotels_Select_Guest_Credits\">Earning Omni Hotels Select Guest Credits<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Use_AwardWallet_to_Track_Omni_Select_Guest_Credits_Expiration\">Use AwardWallet to Track Omni Select Guest Credits Expiration<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Our_Take\">Our Take<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omni Hotels Select Guest credits don\u2019t follow the same rules as most hotel points.
