Shangri-la’s new program has officially launched today, and I hope you had converted your points into vouchers before the devaluation kicked in. Anyway, to celebrate the program refresh Shangri-la has started an Unlock Your Rewards promotion.
- Offer ends July 31
- New members receive 300 points ($20) after one qualifying transaction
- All members receive
- 600 points ($30) for three qualifying transactions, or
- 900 points ($60) for four qualifying transactions, or
- 1,500 points ($100) for five or more qualifying transactions
So if you create a new account now and make at least five transactions by July 31, you’ll earn a total of 1,800 points which is equivalent to $120. Existing members can earn 1,500 points at most, which isn’t bad either.
A qualifying transaction is to spend at least $20 or 300 points on room stay, dining, spa or the Shangri-la boutique. You can earn maximum two qualifying transactions per day.
It’s unclear whether our converted vouchers count – my gut feeling is no, but if you pay an additional $20 for the meal it should be fine. If you have a few of those vouchers at hand, might as well spend them by July 31 to bag a few more Shangri-la points.
