Your financial transaction is with Marriott, not WN.

I ordered two $500 gift cards on Aug 9 (Friday), got them via 1st class mail on the 15th, and saw the 12k miles credit to my Southwest account on the 18th.

Ordered gift cards on 8/19.

Received the cards in mail on 8/24. I did not pay extra to have them shipped in 2 or 3 business days.

RR points posted in on 8/24.

Chase Sapphire

Will I earn double points with this giftcard purchase for the SW points if I use my Chase Sapphire card since I get double points on travel and restaurants? Thanks!

I'd guess probably yes, but don't know for sure.

Well I got double points on Chase SW credit card which awards double points on hotels. It was a nice surprise.

I'll post here when my statement closes in a day or two. I suspect you do.

In any event, I bought $250 worth and the points were posted about 7-8 days after I bought them. I'll probably buy some more once I use up the $250.

I purchased my $1,000 worth with my Marriott Card and RR #.

I actually have the need to purchase another $500 card for a promo I am doing at work for staff. I assume it is ok to purchase with my Marriott Card for the 5x points - but use my husbands RR number so he gets the RR points since I am already at my RR points max.

Correct?

Same credit card

Can I use the same credit card, Chase Sapphire, however use 2 separate Southwest Rapid Rewards accounts for this promotion? So, I will charge $1000 on my Chase Sapphire and use my RR # and then charge another $1000 on that same card and use my wife's RR #.

Earn up to 12,000 Points with Marriot Gift Cards

Don't know if this is targeted but I got this e-mail today. The T&C's don't mention if these are CPQP:

Ready for more Rapid Rewards® Points? Earn up to 12,000 bonus points when you purchase Marriott® GiftCards through September 26, 2013.

$100 = 1,200 Rapid Rewards Points
$250 = 3,000 Rapid Rewards Points
$500 = 6,000 Rapid Rewards Points

Think sun-kissed beaches and cool pools. Think big cities and countryside manors. Think glistening golf courses and soothing spas. Experience all that you can do with a Marriott GiftCard.

With over 3,800 properties worldwide, there is sure to be a Marriott-branded property anywhere Southwest® and your Rapid Rewards Points take you.

It's been around for awhile. Thanks for mentioning it again since it will soon expire. I picked up a $500.00 card just yesterday.

How are y'all planning on liquidating these cards, other than by simply using them at a Marriot?
