IIRC SPG points don't transfer directly to Iberia. It would have to be an SPG hotel stay with IB+ chosen as a direct airline deposit.
(many moons ago for one of the IB+ partner promos I believe I had to do some gymnastics of that type)
Buying something via the Iberia E-store is a quick and easy way to activate an account.
