How to Register for Choice Hotels Personalization Week Benefits
Whether you use it regularly or not Choice program or just an occasional guest, you should keep up with current information Choice Privileges Promotion.
One promotion worth knowing about, even if you don’t stay at Choice Hotels often, is Personalized benefits on weeknights(This promotion was previously called Your Extras and the term Your Extras is still used in some parts of the Choice Hotels website.)
Signing up for this promotion takes less than a minute, but you can get personalized benefits for every weeknight stay with Choice Hotels after signing up. These benefits will add at least a few dollars of extra value to every weeknight stay, so here’s what you need to know.
What are the personalized weeknight benefits?
The Personalized Week benefit gives you something extra when you check in to a points-eligible stay that includes a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday night. To earn benefits on eligible stays, you must opt in (instructions are included below) and select your rewards options on the Choice Hotels app or website.
You can only earn Personalized Week Benefits for one booking per day, and you can only earn one Personalized Week Benefits per eligible stay, regardless of room, night, check-in date, and check-out date. In particular, checking out of a hotel only to check back into the same hotel later that day will not earn you additional benefits.

If you have a Choice Privileges account, you should sign up for Personalized Weeknight Benefits. Earning a Starbucks coffee card will provide the best value for money for most US residents. However, I prefer to earn Choice Privileges points because I believe they provide similar value, and I don’t go to Starbucks very often.
The Personalized Weeknight Benefits program may not dramatically change your travel habits, but it’s a good option if you’re considering two hotels for a weeknight stay. All in all, it’s definitely worth taking a minute or two to consider the Personalized Weeknight Benefits program if you haven’t already.
