Are buying Wyndham points worth it?
If you're a few points shy of a redemption and in need of points sooner than later, your best bet is going to be buying Wyndham Points to top off your Wyndham Rewards account. Wyndham does not have a large amount of direct transfer partners, so it will not be as easy to build rewards using partner credit cards like some of the other big hotel brands.
Just remember that when buying a large amount of points, you'll always want to make sure that you can redeem them for more than what you paid for them. The Point Calculator values Wyndham Points at around 0.7 cents per point on average, those there are redemptions that can give you significantly more value if you're able to research a few destinations.
