Wyndham to RCI Points Conversion Table

[Ecelso]

Is there points conversion table to calculate club Wyndham points to RCI? Or are is 1:1 conversion?

Or some thing like Value 1wpt =.5rpt and peak 1wpt = 2rpt? Or something like that? Please advise and many thanks in advanced.

There's no direct conversion from Wyndham points to RCI points. Wyndham/RCI exchange costs are determined by a table that takes into account only season and unit size. (Be aware that season can only be determined by looking at points costs for a given geographic region in the Wyndham/RCI portal and does not correspond with existing RCI or Wyndham seasons.) Some resort exchanges have points discounts inside (I think) 30 days.

I think the table represents the average cost of a particular size unit in a given season. Probably based on the average value derived from the TPU weeks values and transfered into points. The result is depending on which resort you book it is either a better value or less of a value compared to a simular Wyndham resort.

With wyndham you could book a two bedroom from 154,000 points to as much asor 250,000 points at national harbor. If i could get NYC wyndham through RCI, it would be a great deal. Arkansas not so much.

Got it. Thank you both for the response. I knew it wasn’t going to be simple, but figured I asked.

I have found out it is cheaper on many occasions to use RCI points over paying Wyndham maintenance fees. Add in the $239 reservation fee over using 154,000 Wyndham points compared to 77,000 RCI points its cheaper then paying the average maintenance fee of $6 per thousand for the non VIP owner.

Now if you were to add to that a gold owner can deposit 35,000 points and Wyndham will deposit 63,000 points it is now even a better deal.

I know a guy who ended up with millions of RCI points because of this feature.

Its almost like double dipping.

That is an 80% point bonus. Is that right? Or is it 180%? So, if one deposits 35k, Wyndham deposits additional 63k? Or does the 63k include the 35k op deposited? Same as VIPG discount when booking Wyndham in discount window, right? If it's 80% for VIPG, what is it for VIPP?

Same for Platium. Or it's 44% more points either way. Don't forget the RCI booking fee.

The 63k includes the 35k. It's not an additional 63k. It's described as a "size upgrade" (a relic from the days of size/season deposits). So basically, a 35k deposit that would correspond to a quiet season studio is "upgraded" to a 1BR in the process of depositing it to RCI and becomes 63k points in RCI. This requires calling; it can't be done online.

Ok, so does everything on the chart you posted earlier in this thread "upgrade" (one box to the right)? Or just studios? Or just quiet season?

 

[paxsarah]

Any value or quiet - but as you can see from the chart, the biggest percentage increase of any size is for the quiet studio to 1BR.

Close to a double on the points. Well worth a phone call IMHO.
