I found a link (through WebFlyer) that gets closer:

http://www.bestwestern.com/summer

but it's still confusing. It has a link for "more points with BW MasterCard" right under the brief description, but that links to an app page, not a description of using the BW MC to get more points out of this promo.

Then there's a link to Q&A. The Q&A does spell out the 2 different properties 6500 point bonus (for Elites only), then answers a question (that doesn't mention Elites only) about having to use the BW MC for each of the 3 stays for a 6500 point bonus, but nowhere in Q&A does it specifically say that these are two different 6500 point bonuses (one for 2 different properties, the other for BW MC use).

Only if you click for the T&Cs does it finally clarify there that these are indeed two separate 6500 point bonuses:

Whew, so everyting IF wrote about this promo is actually that case.

But why oh why does BW have to make figuring out this promotion so difficult???
