Visa Infinite free 6-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership now available in Singapore

Earlier this year, Accor launched a new partnership with Visa Infinite, which offered cardholders a complimentary 6-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership. 

Unfortunately, this benefit was geographically limited, and not available to Visa Infinite cards issued in Singapore, along with South Korea, India, Sri Lanka, Australia, New Zealand, and Indonesia.

But there’s now an exciting development. Visa has just expanded the list of eligible countries to include Singapore, Australia, Indonesia and New Zealand.

Visa Infinite offering 6-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership 

Details

From 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, Visa Infinite cardholders in the following countries are eligible for a complimentary six-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership.

A limited number of redemptions are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and existing ALL Accor+ Explorer members cannot use this to extend their membership.

To register, visit the landing page, log in to your My Visa account, and click on Redeem Now.

Then visit this ALL Accor+ Explorer page and use the code to register. The six-month period begins upon successful registration.

What does the trial membership include?

This ALL Accor+ Explorer trial membership comes with the following benefits:

• ALL Accor Gold privileges
• 15% off the public rate at 5,000+ hotels worldwide
• 30% off dining and 15% off drinks across Asia Pacific
• Exclusive member events and partner benefits
• Access to Red Hot Rooms and More Escapes

There are two key differences between the trial membership and a fully paid one.

First, the trial membership offers ALL Accor Gold status, while the fully paid membership offers 30 status nights. In practice, it’s the same thing, since 30 status nights automatically qualify you for ALL Gold. The difference is the mechanism. 

Basically, a fully paid member has the option of staying an additional 30 nights to upgrade to ALL Accor Platinum, whereas the trial member does not.

🏨 Qualification Requirements for ALL Elite Status
Status	Status Nights	Status Points
Silver	10	2,000 (€800 spend)
Gold	30	7,000 (€2,800 spend)
Platinum	60	14,000 (€5,600 spend)
Diamond	N/A	26,000 (€10,400 spend)
Qualification can either be through Status Nights or Status Points

Second, the trial membership does not include the two Stay Plus free night certificates, which allow members to buy one night and get a second one free. That’s fair enough — I wouldn’t have expected the trial to include this either. 

Otherwise, the trial membership has all the other good stuff, including 30% off dining, 15% off drinks, and access to Red Hot Rooms sales. If you frequent one of the participating restaurants, or plan to stay at a participating hotel, you could really get some value out of this.

Membership automatically converts!

Here’s the catch: the trial membership will automatically convert into a paid membership at the end of the six-month period.

The fee will be billed in the relevant local currency, depending on where your membership is based. The Visa T&Cs state a renewal price of US$249, but this predates the 1 October price increase. Expect to be charged the prevailing prices, shown below. 

You can opt out to 48 hours before auto-renewal, but if you already know that you don’t want to convert, you can opt out right away after activating your trial.

Even if you’re interested in purchasing a full membership, I would recommend opting out of auto-renewal, because you can usually get a better deal during one of the public sales.

For instance, the current sale — which ends on 31 October 2026 — offers 3,000 ALL points, which reduces the effective cost of a membership by €60.

Besides, you don’t want to purchase an ALL Accor+ Explorer membership with your Visa Infinite — the best card to use on this purchase would be the Citi Rewards Card, at 4 mpd. 

What are the Visa Infinite cards in Singapore?

Visa Infinite benefits, including the 6-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership, are available to both principal and supplementary cardholders (except Standard Chartered supplementary cardholders, because of the weird way the bank handles supplementary cards).

Conclusion

Visa Infinite has expanded the list of countries eligible for the 6-month ALL Accor+ Explorer membership trial to include Singapore, along with Australia, Indonesia and New Zealand.

The trial basically includes all the standard membership benefits, except the two Stay Plus nights. You can save up to 30% on dining, 15% on drinks, and book discounted Red Hot Rooms, with ALL Gold privileges when you stay. 

Just remember to turn off the auto-renewal feature, even if you intend to convert to a full membership in the future. It’s usually a better deal to wait for one of the sales before purchasing a membership.
