I am browsing local properties because I most likely would be 2 nights short for this year's requal on Plat, with only one trip in Oct/Nov where I already try my best to use BonVoy. Since the rates in Sept here would be much cheaper than in Dec I plan to do the mattress run in Sept.

Here comes some "Package Rates" found on a local property - the Package Rates are all the same, with categories of Member Exclusive Rate, Exclusive Offer Rate (the offers are WiFi and an "upon availability" but no description on what that would be, Long Term Stay Rate.

In the Rate Details, Member Exclusive Rate is not commissionable, while Exclusive Offer Rate and Long Term Stay Rate are commissionable. They are all cancellable with 48 hours before arrival.

The oddity is, they are 6% cheaper than the Senior rate which I know for sure, is eligible for earning all the credits.

Have anyone used those "package rates" and still earn the elite qualifying nights? These rates are all available on Marriott own site, listed under Deals and Packages.
