IHG Rewards Club improves program with fuel rewards savings

The IHG program is one that a lot of people hate on, and honestly, I can feel their pain. However, the Intercontinental exclusive Ambassador program is well worth the price of admission, the IHG credit is amazing, and I think quite a bit of value can be found in the program.  I caught a headline over at Inside Flyer by Tim Winship about a new IHG fuel program and checked out their press release later in the day for the details. The long and short of it is that IHG has partnered with Shell to provide benefits to their U.S. members. Let’s take a look at how IHG has improved their program

The broad strokes:

  • 5 cents off for Club and Gold
  • 6 cents for Plats and all of us with the IHG credit card
  • 7 cents for Spire

According to CNNmoney the average American buys 11 gallons a week. Let’s do the math

  • Club and Gold $0.05 * 11 * 52 = $28.60
  • Plats $0.06 * 11 * 52 = $34.32
  • Spire $0.07 * 11 * 52 =  $40.04

That’s not bad!

Finish the process and earn some money back! Just make sure you plug in your fuel rewards alt id or swipe your card when you buy Shell gas. I used my phone number as my alt id.

    Note that this is only available in the US. The title of the post does not mention this and there is also no mention of this in the body of the post, though it is clearly mentioned in the press release.

    Again, IHG rolls out more stuff of basically no value to the average person let alone the frequent traveler. The average Shell gas station is overpriced by at least 10 cents to competitors. Garbage program and company rolls out more garbage… no surprise.

      Hey, it works for some of us. Not every deal is going to make you a millionaire, but maybe of interest to others. I for one appreciate the post.
