Pan Pacific has launched a promotion offering instant Gold status in the GHA Discovery program. Even better, it is a complimentary offer – you don’t even need to stay. However, if you do stay, you can earn triple Discovery Dollars (D$) when staying between May 1 and August 31, 2025.
In the GHA Discovery program, gold is the first of the elite levels – the first step up from the bottom. This normally requires either two stays or a spend of US$1,000 in a calendar year.
Key Details
Complimentary Gold
- Offer:
- Enjoy a complimentary fast-track to Gold tier simply by registering
- Dates:
- Valid when registering between 1 May and 30 June 2025
If you are already at the Gold level, your membership will be extended (if applicable) to 31 December 2026.
As noted, the Gold level is the first of the elite levels in the program. As with many programs, while a step up from the base level, it comes with limited benefits. In the case of GHA Discovery, the principal benefit of gold is that earn at a greater rate than the base level.

GHA Discovery is a little unusual in that the promotional bonus offer will apply the multiplier to any status bonus that you receive. For this promotion, this works out as follows:
- Gold: 5% base + 10% bonus = 15% total
- Platinum: 6% base + 12% bonus = 18% total
- Titanium: 7% base + 14% bonus = 21% total
That said, promotional D$ generally have a shorter life than the normal D$. In the case of this promotion, the bonus D$ will expire 3 months after they are added to your account.
Final Words
If you’re a silver member of the program, there seems little reason not to apply for the free upgrade.
Keep in mind that if you have a World Mastercard, you could go down the path of applying for a Platinum membership.
