No doubt this sounds very lucrative but to get this return
1. Firstly you need to make the respective revenue booking via their portal
2. Wait for accelerated points to get credited (I guess that will happen after your stay or travel is complete)
3. Transfer all the points to accor for 2X return
4. Book your next stay at Accor

IMO, if you don't have a better salary account somewhere else then you can switch and take this as an additional card for travel only. Infinia/EPM still works best for regular expenses, shopping etc.1

1 and 2 applies everywhere, 3 and 4 I do understand the lag but worth it imo

Firstly you need to make the respective revenue booking via their portal <-This makes Travelone utterly useless and makes Axis Atlas shine. Its always advisable to do direct booking through hotels / airlines for multiple reasons - especially to earn reward points on those bookings, get loyalty privilages (some hotels dont even count these nights if booked through third parties), manage IROPS / disruptions (always easy to manage in case of direct booking) and so on
