Booking for someone else and still get points?

I'm booking a couple of nights for my parents in Dallas(Park Inn) and in Atlanta(Country Inn).

I booked it under my fathers name. So the confirmation email shows:

Reservation For: "Dad's full name"

It was a prepaid reservation

Have anyone done this before? Will he have any issues checking in? and will I have any issues getting the bonus points?

I posted this question a while back. I was worried that I would be that I would be the only one to stay at a non participating hotel. I wrote an email to CC and their speedy service finally wrote me back:

Dear Mr. rdaven,

Thank you for taking the time to write.

We appreciate your interest in our newest promotions.

We can confirm that all hotels are participating in some capacity. We
mean, that all Radisson and Radisson Blu hotels qualify for the Radisson
Big Night Giveaway, however, a stay in a Country Inn & Suites will not
qualify for this promotion.

Likewise, all Country Inn & Suites are eligible for the So Go! promotion
which is currently running, but only this brand will qualify for So Go!.
We are also running a promotion for the Park Inn, called One plus One,
however, stays at the Park Plaza will not qualify for the One plus One
promotion. Because of the different brand promotions, we were simply
attempting to keep the conditions as clear as possible.

We hope this answers your questions, and we always invite you to let us
know if there is anything that we can do to assist you.

Kind Regards,

Chea Roberts | Member Services Online Customer Care Specialist, Carlson
Rezidor Hotels


So that clears it up for me and anyone else that was wondering which hotels were actually the participating ones.

I take it you have no use for a promo IN THE AMERICAS?

My wife and I each had a stay at Country Inn on Saturday and the bonus points posted to our accounts today!

What an excellent promotion! This is how all points should post.

So what is the agreed on market value of a Club Carlson Points?
I think that I will use my points in Cash and Points stays.
Upon first analysis of my future planned redemptions, I can get value of $0.005 per point.
Awards nights may be another story.

My recemption for CC points at the Radisson Aruba is in the neighborhood of 1.2 CPP. Probably on the high end but I certainly found good value there.

For those that used Topcashback, how long did it take to appear? I reserved through them a few days back and don't see anything pending yet (or even listed in Visited section).

Thanks!

Go to My Account, Earnings. They should show up there, though I don't know how long it takes before they do.

I booked all my rooms today. I did forget to put the 30PCTOFF code in one of the bookings. So, I tried to cancel and it was a non-refundable booking. I called CC and they told me to call Country Inn and see if they would cancel the reg. I called and they would not cancel so I submitted a BRG since I took a screen shot of the lower rate. I am hoping they allow that. I will get 50% instead of 30%. Their loss.
I did use topcashback to book and my New Ink Bold. The card came just in time for the bookings.

I went over memorial day weekend and the first 2 nights have posted as of today, but not the third.... So I'd say it should be about a week.

I stayed at Country Inn on Saturday and Radisson on Sunday. I received the points for Country Inn yesterday and I received the points for Radisson today. I also booked with Top Cash back and checked today and saw the payments as pending. The last time I checked was on Sunday and I saw County Inn but no amount was showing. Today I checked again and both the Country Inn and Radisson showed the amounts and they are still showing as pending.
