HB LOYALTY CLUB

The HB Loyalty Club (HBLC) has 3 status tiers - Gold, Platinum and Diamond. When you join you start with Gold status. You reach Platinum and Diamond status by earning Points after each stay booked on Halalbooking®.

STATUS POINTS
You earn Status Points for each stay booked on Halalbooking. Status Points are credited to your membership account after the check-out from the hotel. The more Status Points you earn during the year, the more benefits you receive as you reach a higher HBLC status.

Gold members earn 1 Status Point per $1 spent on stays. Platinum members earn 1.25 Status Points. Diamond members earn 1.50 Status Points.

CASH POINTS
In addition to Status Points you also earn Cash Points for every stay booked on Halalbooking. Cash Points will be credited to your membership account after the check-out from the hotel. Also, there are many other ways to earn Cash Points such as writing property reviews and referring friends. For example, writing a review may earn you up to 2,500 Cash Points. 1 Cash Point = $0.01. Cash Points never expire (as long as your account stays active, i.e you sign-in to your account at least once a year). Cash Points cannot be converted into real money.

It is easy to spend your cash points at the final payment stage of your new booking. Under Payment you will see options to spend some or all of your cash points. The final reduced price will be calculated automatically depending on the total price of your booking and the amount of cash points you would like to spend.

Gold members earn 1 Cash Point per $1 spent on stays. Platinum members earn 1.25 Cash Points. Diamond members earn 1.50 Cash Points.

Members can choose to earn points with one of our partners instead of Halalbooking Cash Points, for example Turkish Airlines' Miles. To switch your points earning preference - email hblc@halalbooking.com.

REACH HIGHER STATUS
You reach Platinum or Diamond status as soon as you have earned 3,000 or 10,000 Status Points within one calendar year (i.e. current membership year). The new status is valid for the rest of the current membership year and the whole next membership year.
For example, if you start the 2024 membership year as GOLD and during 2024 earn 3,000 Status Points, you become PLATINUM for the rest of 2024 and for the whole of 2025. If you earn 10,000 Status Points within 2024, you become DIAMOND for the rest of 2024 and the whole of 2025 (and you are guaranteed at least PLATINUM for 2026 due to SOFT LANDING rule - see below).

Your membership profile screen always shows how many points you earned so far and how many more points you need to reach the next status.

RENEW YOUR STATUS
If you already start the current year as Platinum or Diamond - to renew your status to the next year - you need to earn 3,000 or 10,000 Status Points within the current year. To make it easy for you to renew your status - all your Surplus Points earned in the previous year are rolled over to the current year. Surplus Points are status points earned in the previous year from stays only above the minimum requirement for your current status. Surplus Points earned in the previous year are rolled over to the current year only and not to next year. Also, it is easier to renew your status than to reach it again if you lose it - it is because Platinum/Diamond members earn 25/50% more Status Points per $1 spent than Gold members.

Example 1: You start 2024 as PLATINUM and earned 4,000 Status Points from stays in 2023. PLATINUM’s minimum requirement is 3,000 Status Points, so your 4,000 Status Points mean you earned 1,000 Surplus Points in 2023. These will be rolled over to 2024 making it easier for you to renew your PLATINUM status into 2025, because instead of 3,000 Status Points in 2024 you only need to earn 2,000 Status Points. Also earning these 2,000 Status Points is easier for you now in 2024 because as a PLATINUM member you earn 1.25 Status Points per $1 spent (unlike GOLD members who earn 1 Status Point). Therefore, $1,600 (instead of $2,000) spent will earn you 2,000 Points needed to renew your PLATINUM status into 2025.

Example 2: You start 2024 as DIAMOND and earned 12,500 Status Points from stays in 2023. DIAMOND’s minimum requirement is 10,000 Status Points, so your 12,500 Status Points mean you earned 2,500 Surplus Points in 2023. These will be rolled over to 2024 making it easier for you to renew your DIAMOND status into 2025, because instead of 10,000 Status Points in 2024 you only need to earn 7,500 Status Points. Also earning these 7,500 Status Points is easier for you now in 2024 because as a DIAMOND member you earn 1.50 Status Points per $1 spent (unlike GOLD members who earn 1 Status Point). Therefore, $5,000 (instead of $7,500) spent will earn you 7,500 Points needed to renew your DIAMOND status into 2025.

Your membership profile screen always shows how many points you earned so far and how many more points you need to renew your status.

SOFT LANDING
If you are a DIAMOND member in the current year but do not renew your DIAMOND status into the next year - your status will downgrade the next year but only by one status level, i.e. to PLATINUM, not to GOLD.

Example: You reach DIAMOND in 2024. This means you are DIAMOND for the rest of 2024 and the whole of 2025. If you do not renew your DIAMOND status into 2026, you will be PLATINUM (rather not GOLD) for the whole of 2026.

BUY EXTRA STATUS POINTS - to reach or renew your Platinum or Diamond status
If at the end of the calendar year you need a few extra Status Points to reach or renew your Platinum or Diamond status, you can buy up to 1,000 extra Status Points - either by paying with real money or spending your Cash Points. You can pay $0.20 for 1 Status Point, or spend 20 Cash Points for 1 Status Point. Extra Status Points can only be bought during December. To buy extra Status Points - please email hblc@halalbooking.com.
