Reason being, currently there are a few brand specific offers on Chase cards, such as 15% at Sheraton, 15% at Autograph etc. When you make a prepaid rate (presumably much cheaper than refundable one) for the Xmas period at a Sheraton - who runs your CC, Sheraton or Marriott corp?
In my experience it was always the property. If you want to force them to charge you right away to take advantage of these offers, call the hotel front desk and ask for that.
