The SPG offer is ending, but they just started the offer today for Marriott properties expiring 25 October. Check your Amex account to see if your card is included.

My Cdn SPG Amex is having a similar promo (spend $250, get $50 back) but it’s valid at SPG and Marriott properties worldwide.

I wish they included non US properties. I ended a trip in the US a week before the SPG offer started... and will be in the US again right after this offer ends... Same thing with the Quantas offer for $200 off with $1000 USD spend. Must be an itinerary starting from the US to Australia. Too bad I am going to Australia on Quantas but starting from a different continent so I don't get credit. Oh well. IN general these loyalty programs are too US centric even if a large proportion of revenue derives from non US areas.

BTW, my $300 SPG pre-payment has posted to my card, as well as the $60 credit for my October stay.

I had a situation like this last year with Amex and a spend promo. Spend I think $15,000 USD and get 15,000 points. I wanted to qualify immediately rather than natural spend time frame, so I called up several Marriotts and asked to pre-pay. They sent an authorization form. I signed. Charged immediately and got the bonus points. Try that.
