How to Earn and Use ALL Accor Reward Points as a Canadian
Loading article…
The simplest way to use ALL Accor points as a Canadian is to transfer American Express Membership Rewards points at a 2:1 ratio, then redeem them at a fixed rate of 1,000 points for 20 euros against any stay. There is no Accor credit card in this country and no award chart to learn, which makes it one of the easiest hotel programs to actually use.
ALL Accor is one of these programs, representing the Accor Hotel Group and its 50+ hotel brands around the world. While not the most well-known program in Canada, ALL Accor is aiming to change that with expanding partnerships, including with American Express Canada, making it easier to earn Reward points, and making the program considerably more accessible to Canadians.
In this article, we’ll go over everything you need to know about ALL Accor Reward points as a Canadian, including how to earn, redeem, and transfer points to maximize your travel savings.
Earn ALL Accor Rewards Points
Although there are no co-branded credit cards in Canada for ALL Accor (Marriott Bonvoy is the only hotel loyalty program in the country with co-branded credit cards), you can still earn Reward points a number of different ways, including:
- Transfer from American Express Membership Rewards
- Earn and transfer through partnership with Flying Blue
- Transfer from other airline loyalty programs
- Earn on stays at ALL Accor properties
- Earn with partnered merchants
Why there is no Accor card in Canada
A hotel co-brand only works where the chain has enough properties for everyday spending to feel connected to a reward the cardholder can actually picture using. Marriott Bonvoy clears that bar in Canada with hundreds of hotels. Accor does not, and no issuer will underwrite a card against a footprint that narrow.
The consequence is the most useful thing to understand about this program as a Canadian: you cannot earn Accor points on your everyday spending. No card in the country does it, and the merchant partners that pay Reward points are almost all European.
That leaves the Membership Rewards transfer as the only realistic way to build a balance from here. In practice, your Accor strategy is an American Express strategy.
Transfer Membership Rewards points
Since there’s no ALL Accor credit card in Canada, the best option for Canadians looking to build up their account balance is to transfer points from their American Express Membership Rewards (MR) account. MR points can be transferred at a rate of 1,000 MR Points = 500 ALL Accor Reward points (with a 1,000 point minimum transfer).
This option is the most accessible for Canadians because earning MR points is relatively easy thanks to American Express’ many Membership Rewards credit card options. For example, the American Express Cobalt® Card is a fan-favourite, earning up to 5 points per $1 spent.
The American Express Platinum Card® is also a great choice since it not only earns MR points on all purchases, but it also comes with loads of perks and benefits. In fact, this card will introduce complimentary ALL Accor Gold status to its list of perks at some point in the second half of 2026 (we’ll update you once the launch date is confirmed!).
It’s also important to note that MR points are also transferable to Marriott Bonvoy and Hilton Honors, and to the following 4 airline loyalty programs: Aeroplan, Flying Blue, British Airways Club, and Delta Skymiles. While the most valuable MR point transfers tend to be to the airline programs, ultimately it’s a personal decision where the best value lies.

Earn and Transfer with Flying Blue using Miles+Points
ALL Accor is partnered with Flying Blue, the loyalty program for Air France and KLM. As part of this partnership, they’ve created the Miles+Points program that lets you earn with both programs at the same time and transfer reward balances between the programs.
We’ve written a complete guide to the Miles+Points program, so take a read through that to learn how to take full advantage, but to get you started the basic details are as follows:
- Earn 1 Flying Blue mile for every €1 spent at ALL Accor hotels in addition to regular Reward points earned.
- Earn 1 Reward point for every €2 spent on eligible Air France / KLM flights in addition to regular Flying Blue miles earned.
- When you book your first night’s stay or flight get a boost of 2 status nights with ALL and 10 XP with Flying Blue
- Transfer between the programs: 4,000 Flying Blue miles -> 1,000 Reward points or 2,000 Reward points -> 2,000 Flying Blue miles
Canadians can earn Flying Blue points with the Air France KLM World Elite MasterCard® or by flying with Air France, KLM, and other SkyTeam and partnered airlines. You can also transfer American Express Membership Rewards points to Flying Blue at a rate of 1,000 MR points = 1,000 Flying Blue miles. However, you would not want to transfer from MR points to Flying Blue and then to ALL Accor since this will lose you value unnecessarily; instead, it’s best to just transfer MR points directly to your ALL Accor account.

Transfer from other airline loyalty programs
Another way for Canadians to accumulate ALL Accor Reward points is by transferring miles/points from other airline loyalty programs, including:
- Aegean Airlines: 2,000 Aegean miles = 500 Reward points
- Air Europa: 2,000 SUMA miles = 500 Reward points
- Azul Airlines: 11,250 Azul points = 1,000 Reward points
- Emirates: 4,000 Skywards miles = 1,000 Reward points
- Finnair: 2,300 Finnair Avios = 500 Reward points
- Gulf Air: 4,000 Falconflyer miles = 1,000 Reward points
- IndiGo Airlines: 6,000 IndiGo BluChips = 1,000 Reward points
- Japan Airlines: 5,000 JAL miles = 1,000 Reward points
- Juneyao Air: 200 Juneyao Air Club points = 800 Reward points
- Kenya Airways: 3,000 Asante miles = 1,000 Reward points
- LATAM Airlines: 6,000 LATAM Pass Brazil points = 1,000 Reward points
- Qatar Airways: 3,500 Qatar Avios = 1,000 Reward points
- Singapore Airlines: 4,500 KrisFlyer miles = 1,000 Reward points
- Vietnam Airlines: 6,000 miles = 1,000 Reward points
Additionally, Azul Airlines, Qantas Airlines, and Qatar Airways have partnered with ALL Accor to increase member benefits and earning opportunities when you link your accounts. With these programs, you can earn both airline loyalty rewards and ALL Accor Reward points at the same time (depending on the program and your elite status), as well as enjoy additional partner benefits. You can read all the details of these opportunities on ALL Accor’s partner website.
Also, keep in mind that transferring from the above programs generally isn’t the most valuable use of these airline loyalty rewards (regardless of the program). However, if you have no plans to fly with the airline or its partners, moving your rewards to ALL Accor does give you the benefit of guaranteed value to lower the cost of your next hotel stay.
Earn on hotel stays
Given that ALL Accor is a hotel loyalty program, it’s no surprise that one of the best ways to earn points is by staying at participating hotel and resort properties. ALL Accor Reward points can be earned across 50+ brands in 100 countries around the world. These brands fall into 5 categories as follows:
| Category | Brands |
|---|---|
| Luxury | Banyan Tree, Emblems Collection, Faena, Fairmont, M Gallery, onefinestay, Orient Express, Raffles, Rixos, Sofitel Hotels & Resorts, Sofitel Legend, The Purist Retreat & Spa |
| Premium | Adagio Premium, Angsana, Art Series, Garrya, Grand Mercure, Mantis, Movenpick, Peppers, Pullman, The Sebel, Swissôtel, Thalassa |
| Economy | Adagio Access, Breakfree, Greet, Hotel F1, ibis, ibis budget, ibis styles, Jo&Joe |
| Midscale | Adagio Original, Cassia, Dhawa, Folio, Homm, Huazhu Hotels Group Ltd., Mantra, Mercure Hotels, Novotel, Tribe, Handwritten Collection |
| Lifestyle by Ennismore | 21C Museum Hotel, twenty five hours hotels, Delano, Hyde, Mama Shelter, Mondrian, SLS, So/, The Hoxton, Morgans Originals, Paris Society Collection |
In Canada, the ALL Accor footprint isn’t particularly expansive; however, the properties we do have are some of the country’s most iconic. In particular, Canada is home to many Fairmont brand hotels, which include stunning properties such as:
- Review: Fairmont Waterfront Vancouver | ALL Accor
- Review: Fairmont Le Château Frontenac | ALL
- Review: Fairmont Tremblant Hotel – Mont-Tremblant | ALL
- Fairmont the Queen Elizabeth Montreal: Review and Guide
- Review: Fairmont Château Laurier Hotel, Ottawa | Accor ALL
- Review: Fairmont Le Château Montebello Hotel | Accor ALL
As a member of ALL Accor, you can earn Reward points on your hotel stays when you pay cash, and on your eligible hotel expenses like golf, spa services, on-site dining, and more.
Depending on which property brand you’re staying at and what ALL Accor elite status you hold, you can earn between 5 and 50 Reward points per €10 spent.
Until November 22, 2026, you can also earn 4X Reward points at 63 new Accor hotels, as long as you register for the offer before you book.
Other ways to earn
ALL Accor Reward points can also be earned through a handful of additional partners, including some notable travel merchants:
- Eurostar: Convert 500 Club Eurostar points to 1,000 Reward points
- Europcar: Earn 3 Reward points per €1 spent on eligible car rentals
- Hertz: Earn 5 Reward points per €1 spent on eligible car rentals
- Sixt: Earn 200 Reward points for €50 rental; earn 350 Reward points for €100 rental; earn 550 Reward points for €150 rental
- The Bicester Collection: Earn 2 Reward points per €1 spent
The full list of eligible partners is available on ALL Accor’s partner page, though the ones above are the most relevant for Canadian travellers.
ALL Accor in Canada: Small but Iconic
American and British writers tend to dismiss Accor as thin in North America. On a pure property count they have a point. On what those properties actually are, they are wrong, and Canadian travellers are the ones who benefit from the difference.
Marriott Bonvoy has hundreds of Canadian hotels, most of them Courtyards and Residence Inns beside a highway. Accor has far fewer, and a striking share of them are the landmark hotels of the country, the ones people travel to see rather than sleep in on the way somewhere else:
- Fairmont Banff Springs and Fairmont Château Lake Louise, the two castles of the Rockies
- Fairmont Le Château Frontenac, the most photographed hotel in the world
- Fairmont Royal York in Toronto and Fairmont Empress in Victoria, the two grand railway hotels of either coast
- Fairmont Le Château Montebello, the largest log structure ever built as a hotel
These are the rooms where a fixed-value program pays off. A night at the Banff Springs in high season runs well past 600 dollars, and your Reward points cover it at the same rate they would cover an ibis in Lyon. The programs that price dynamically do the opposite: they charge the most exactly where you most want to stay.
So the honest read for a Canadian is not that Accor is a small program. It is that Accor is a narrow program with an unusually good top end, and that the top end sits at home.
Redeeming ALL Accor Reward Points
Once you’re ready to use some of your ALL Accor account balance, there are a few ways to redeem your stash:
- Hotel stays
- Transferring to airline loyalty programs
- For experiences, activities, and more
Hotel stays
The best way to redeem your ALL Accor Reward points is by using them to save on your next stay at one of the program’s thousands of properties around the worlds. Unlike most hotel loyalty programs (e.g., Marriott Bonvoy and Hilton Honors) that have dynamic pricing for their redemption stays, ALL Accor points have a fixed value of 1,000 Reward points = €20 in value.
This fixed value makes it incredibly easy to know the exact value of your ALL Accor account balance, and it let’s you decide if you want to save a little or a lot every time you book. You can easily use your Reward points for your next stay by redeeming them during the booking process, by calling customer service, or by speaking to the staff at the hotel’s reception desk.
Plus, if you have ALL Accor elite status, you can enjoy more perks (when available) during your stay such as complimentary upgrades, early check-in, late check-out, and more. Also, conveniently for Canadians, the American Express Platinum Card® is set to offer automatic Gold status at some points in 2026, along with a ton perks that are already in place.
Uniquely, ALL Accor also lets you enjoy Gold status by buying shares in the company. Check out our guide to this option to learn more.
Convert points to other programs
If you happen to have some ALL Accor Reward points that you won’t use for a hotel stay, you can always transfer them to one (or more) of the many partnered airline loyalty programs.

Experiences, activities, and more
For ALL Accor members with no plans to stay in a hotel or fly, there are a couple more ways to redeem your Reward points.
With ALL Accor Limitless Experiences, you can exchange your points for concerts, sports events, culinary experiences, and more through sales and auctions. The value you can get depends on the event in question, and you can find a full listing of what’s available on the Limitless Experiences website.
You can also redeem your Reward points for activities and experiences in popular cities around the world. This includes things like museum entrance fees, guided tours, cooking classes, and more. These redemption are easily access via the ALL Accor website.
Finally, ALL Accor points can be redeemed or converted to cover select train fares, car rentals, merchandise via shopping partners, and more. Although we don’t recommend these options since they don’t provide much value, you can find full details on the ALL Accor partners webpage.
How to Use ALL Accor Points Wisely
Holding on to ALL Accor Reward points earns you nothing. Because they carry a fixed value of 1,000 points = 20 euros, a point is worth exactly the same today as it will be in two years. There is no interest, no bonus for patience, and no aspirational redemption to save toward.
This is the opposite of the advice we give for almost every other program. With Aeroplan or Marriott Bonvoy, the whole game is finding the sweet spot: the award seat or the hotel night that returns far more than the average. Saving up makes sense there, because one big redemption pays better than several small ones.
ALL Accor has no sweet spot. A suite at Raffles and a room at ibis return the same value per point. A balance of 100,000 Reward points is worth 2,000 euros whether you spend it on a single night or spread it across ten stays.
Two practical rules follow from that:
- Redeem as soon as you have enough to cover the portion of a stay you want covered. Waiting adds nothing to the value of your balance, and it exposes you to a devaluation you gain nothing by waiting for.
- Only transfer Membership Rewards points once you have a booking in mind. The transfer is one-way, and it costs two MR points for every Accor point. Converting a balance speculatively locks flexible currency into the least flexible one you own.
That second rule matters more than it looks. Membership Rewards points can go to Aeroplan, Flying Blue, British Airways Club, Delta SkyMiles, Marriott Bonvoy and Hilton Honors as well. Once they become Accor points, that optionality is gone and the value is locked at 20 euros per 1,000.
Bottom Line
Although ALL Accor has not been the most accessible program in Canada given its smaller property portfolio and lack co-branded credit card, the introduction of the American Express MR point transfer option in mid-2026 makes the program considerably more attractive.
Plus, the fact that this program lets you save real money at luxurious and iconic Fairmont properties across the country makes exploring the ALL Accor even more intriguing.

ALL Accor Points – Frequently Asked Questions
What is ALL Accor?
ALL Accor is the loyalty program for the Accor Hotel Group. It’s free to join and let’s you earn points on your stays and with partnered merchants that you can then redeem for savings at participating hotels and beyond.
Is there a Canadian ALL Accor credit card?
No, unfortunately, there is no ALL Accor credit card in Canada. However, you can earn Membership Rewards (MR) points with an eligible American Express credit card and then transfer these to your ALL Accor account at a rate of 1,000 MR points = 500 Reward points.
How can I earn ALL Accor Reward points?
For Canadians, the realistic route is transferring American Express Membership Rewards points, since no Canadian credit card earns Accor points directly. You can also earn on paid stays at Accor properties, through the Flying Blue Miles+Points partnership, by transferring from other airline programs, and with partner merchants such as Hertz, Sixt and Europcar.
How much are ALL Accor Reward points worth?
ALL Accor Reward points have a fixed value of 1,000 points for 20 euros when redeeming for hotel stays and eligible expenses, which means the value never varies by property or date. They can also be transferred to airline loyalty programs, where the value you end up with depends on the program you choose and how you redeem afterwards.
How many ALL Accor points do I need for a free hotel stay?
Since ALL Accor Reward points have a fixed valued of 1,000 points = €20 in value, you just need to redeem a minimum of 1,000 points to enjoy the savings.. The number of points required to cover the entirety of your stay is directly related to the cash cost of your booking. For example, if you hotel stay costs €200 cash, you’ll need 10,000 Reward points to cover the full price. You can, however, also split the cost between points and cash as it suits you.
Should I transfer Membership Rewards points to ALL Accor in advance?
No. The transfer is one-way and costs two Membership Rewards points for every Accor point, so converting a balance before you need it locks flexible currency into a fixed-value one. Transfer only once you have a specific stay in mind and you know how many points it takes to cover it.
Which Canadian hotels can I book with ALL Accor points?
Canada’s Accor footprint is small but unusually prestigious, and it is dominated by Fairmont. The best known are Fairmont Banff Springs, Fairmont Château Lake Louise, Fairmont Le Château Frontenac in Quebec City, Fairmont Royal York in Toronto, Fairmont Empress in Victoria and Fairmont Le Château Montebello.
