In addition, points can also be purchased on their own, and earned on purchases made with a Rapid Rewards Credit Card, as well as those from Southwest’s partners. Participating partners include Southwest Hotels, Best Western Hotels, Choice Hotels, Hyatt, Marriott Bonvoy, MGM Rewards, 1-800 Flowers, Harry & David, NRG, e Rewards, and Emergency Assistance Plus.

Southwest Rapid Rewards members can redeem their points for flights through Southwest, gift cards, merchandise, hotel stays, rental cars, and “exclusive Cardmember experiences through the Southwest More Rewards program” according to the airline.
