How do you reach tier status with One Key?

  • The more trip elements you book across Hotels.com the higher status you earn with One Key.  
  • What’s a trip element? They’re the different parts of a trip—One Key takes every trip element into account and rewards you for it.
    • Trip elements include:
      • 1 hotel room night (each night counts as an element)
      • 1 night in a vacation rental
      • 1 day car hire
    • *Trip elements must be worth $25 or more in USD excluding taxes and fees to qualify.
  • Your tier status: It’s fast and easy to move up One Key tiers. Here’s what you need to book to qualify for each tier:
    • Blue - Just sign up, it’s free!
    • Silver - 5 trip elements within a year
    • Gold - 15 trip elements within a year
    • Platinum - 30 trip elements within a year
    • So, for example, if you booked 2 nights in a hotel and a 3-day car rental, you’d earn 5 trip elements, enough to reach Silver tier status in one trip.
  • Tier status will be earned on a calendar year basis, from Jan 1 to Dec 31. Your status for the upcoming year will be determined according to the number of trip elements you have collected by Dec 31 and your progress will reset as of Jan 1.
