Last year, Accor launched the ALL Signature program in Brazil (read more here), allowing you to subscribe to one of three offered plans to earn points monthly.
Accor has now enhanced these offers, and they come with not only award points but also elite qualifying ones, and additional discount and bonus points are also thrown in.
You can access this offer on Accor’s page for elite benefits here and this offer here.

Accor ALL Status Requirements & Benefits:
The Absolute package gets you very close to the Platinum status, which requires 15,000 status points within a calendar year.
You would need an additional 3,000 points that you can earn by spending 1,200 euros (before taxes/fees) at Accor-affiliated hotels that earn 2.5 points per euro. Diamond would require additional 14,000 status points that you can earn by spending 5,600 euros (before taxes/fees).
Conclusion
When Accor first launched ALL Signature in Brazil last year, I noted that it made very little sense. You were essentially prepaying for award stays when you could use the cash book hotels you wanted to stay.
These enhanced packages come with status points that are starting to make subscribing to one of these packages more attractive, but even then, the elite benefits at Accor hotels are insignificant compared to their major competitors.
I can only see the Platinum or Diamond status to make sense if most of your stays are in Asia-Pacific hotels, and how many signing up for ALL Signature in Brazil would stay in that area?
If you are not in Brazil, don’t have CPF (taxpayer identification number in Brazil), or don’t speak Portuguese, I would not bother with this offer.
When you sign up for any of these Accor clubs, they then take over your account when it comes to customer service, and you would be dealing with Accor in Brazil and in Portuguese.
You are also unlikely able to sign up for both Accor Plus (makes sense if your stays are in Asia) and ALL Signature (Brazil), as each account can usually be associated with only one subscription program, and Accor has several of them.
