Known for its generous rewards program, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is beloved by everyday travelers worldwide. With partnerships top of mind for many brands in search of a competitive edge, in late 2021, Wyndham’s loyalty program, Wyndham Rewards, announced a brand-new collaboration with Bakkt. Bakkt is a digital asset platform that allows consumers to convert loyalty points into cash and then have the ability to buy crypto, discounted gift cards, or to spend cash or crypto. Through the partnership, members of Wyndham Rewards can easily link their account within the Bakkt App, unlocking the ability to instantly convert their points to cash.

 Loyalty360 spoke with Geoff Crossan, Group Vice President for Loyalty and Partnerships at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, to better understand how the partnership works and how it will help drive engagement and loyalty from within their member base.
