Expedia used to offer points under its old rewards system, but they’ve transitioned to a new currency called OneKeyCash. With OneKeyCash, you earn a percentage back on eligible bookings and can redeem it across Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo.
You can earn 2% to 6% back in OneKeyCash on eligible hotels, vacation rentals, car rentals, activities, and cruises, depending on your membership tier.
- Blue 2%
- Silver 3%
- Gold 4%
- Platinum 6%
Flights get you a lower return, however, providing just 0.2% back in OneKeyCash. Each dollar in OneKeyCash is equivalent to one dollar to use on Expedia, Hotels.com or Vrbo.
Expedia Points vs. OneKeyCash
Previously, Expedia points were worth 1 cent each on average, meaning 10,000 Expedia points were worth roughly $100. As a result, Expedia points were less valuable than the average travel miles, which are worth almost 1.14 cents each.
