How to Rent Out Your Timeshare Points

Path 1: Rent it yourself

Self-renting is the highest-upside option and the most hands-on. The mechanics are the same across programs: book a reservation your points cover — ideally a peak-season week at a resort people actually want — then list that reservation on Airbnb, Vrbo, or a timeshare-specific marketplace like RedWeek or Koala. You set the price, handle guest questions, and collect the payment. (Deciding between marketplaces? See our TRP vs Koala vs RedWeek comparison.)

The honest tradeoff: you carry the risk. If the week doesn't book, you've spent the points and have nothing to show for it. Demand also varies wildly by resort — a Maui Marriott or a Vegas Strip week rents fast, while a low-season inland property can sit. And a few programs, Disney Vacation Club especially, monitor accounts for commercial renting and can restrict members who do it at volume.

If you want to know roughly what a week is worth before you list it, the calculator turns your program and point count into a rental-value range in about 30 seconds.

Path 2: Sell your points to a buyer service

This is what most owners actually want when they can't use a year's points and don't want to become an Airbnb host. You tell a buyer service your program and how many points you have; they make you a cash offer and pay it up front — usually within 24 hours — then handle the booking and renting on their end. You don't list anything, message a guest, or wait for a booking to clear.

Our affiliate partner for this is Timeshare Rental Pros (we earn a commission if you transact with them, which we disclose because it should change how you read a recommendation). The thing that makes a buyer service a buyer service and not a scam: they pay you, and they never charge the owner an upfront fee. If a company wants money from you before they pay you, walk away — see our guide to selling points without upfront fees.

What your points rent for, by program

Per-point rental value is all over the map. Disney Vacation Club leads at roughly $13–$19 per point — a 200-point Use Year can rent for $2,600–$3,800. Marriott Vacation Club runs 35¢–90¢, Diamond 8¢–18¢, and WorldMark 7¢–14¢. Volume programs like Club Wyndham are worth a fraction of a cent per point because owners hold hundreds of thousands of them — a full allocation still rents for over $1,000. Westgate sits at the bottom, around 0.4¢–1¢, which is part of why self-renting it is a grind.

Renting Wyndham or WorldMark points specifically

These two programs generate the most rental questions we see, and they sit at opposite ends of the value ladder. Club Wyndham points rent for a fraction of a cent each (0.5¢–1.2¢) because owners hold hundreds of thousands of them — but a full annual allocation still rents for over $1,000, so volume owners do fine. Self-renting Wyndham points works best on peak-season bookings at high-demand resorts (Orlando, Vegas, beach weeks); off-season inventory is hard to move at any price.

WorldMark by Wyndham credits rent for 7¢–14¢ each — ten times the per-point rate of Club Wyndham — because WorldMark allocations are smaller and the resorts skew toward high-demand West Coast and Hawaii locations. A typical 6,000–10,000 credit annual allocation rents for roughly $400–$1,400 depending on the week you book.

If you landed here as a traveler looking to rent someone else's Wyndham or WorldMark points for a cheap stay: the same marketplaces work in reverse. RedWeek and Koala list owner bookings at 30–50% below the resort's rack rate, and a buyer service can sometimes source specific weeks. Just know the reservation is in the owner's name — reputable marketplaces handle the guest certificate for you.
