Starwood seems to have a bunch of promotions currently going on, with their latest summer offering, where SPG members can earn up to triple Starpoints plus 1,000 bonus points on weekend stays from May 9 through July 31, 2016.
If you’re looking for a way to earn even more Starpoints, you may want to consider the Starwood credit cards, Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card from American Express and the Starwood Preferred Guest Business Credit Card from American Express.
Terms & Conditions
Registration: SPG® Members must register online at spg.com/tripleup by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) on July 17, 2016. Registered Members can earn bonus Starpoints® between May 9 and July 31, 2016 (the “Promotion Period”). There are three ways to earn: (1) earn double Starpoints for each eligible stay of two or more nights at any participating Starwood hotel or resort, (2) earn triple Starpoints for each eligible stay of two or more nights at any participating Sheraton® hotel or resort, and (3) earn an extra 1,000 bonus Starpoints for eligible stays that include a Friday or Saturday night (Thursday or Friday night in the Middle East) at any participating Starwood hotel or resort. A list of hotels and resorts participating in SPG Triple up can be found at spg.com/tripleup and is subject to change.
Earning: Registered Members will earn double Starpoints on eligible stays of two or more nights between May 9 and July 31, 2016, at any participating Starwood hotel or resort. Members who earn double Starpoints will earn an additional two (2) Starpoints per eligible US$1 spent [for a total of four (4) Starpoints per dollar spent]. Additionally, registered Members will earn triple Starpoints on eligible stays of two or more nights between May 9 and July 31, 2016, at any participating Sheraton Starwood hotel or resort. Members who earn triple Starpoints will earn an additional four (4) Starpoints per eligible US$1 spent [for a total of six (6) Starpoints per dollar spent]. Elite-level extra Starpoints earnings and other bonuses will not be doubled or tripled. Only the base two-Starpoints-per-dollar earnings are doubled or tripled. There is no limit on the number of double or triple bonus Starpoints that can be earned during the Promotion Period. A member whose eligible stay includes either a Friday or Saturday night (Thursday or Friday night in the Middle East) will earn an extra 1,000 bonus Starpoints. The complete list of hotels participating in SPG Triple Up can be found at spg.com/tripleup. These offers operate concurrently with other Starpoints promotions; however, each offer will award bonus Starpoints independently of each other.
Bonusing: Double, triple and bonus Starpoints will post to the registered Member’s account within 2–4 weeks after the qualifying stay posts.
Anyone know if I can take advantage of this promotion on a wedding block rate? Going to a wedding in Brooklyn this summer and staying at the Sheraton, so there are a lot of points at stake that I can earn (roughly 5,000 vs. 1,800 if I can’t take advantage of the offer).
