UPDATE: October 26, 2017

You’ve linked your SPG and Uber accounts.
If you haven’t already, make sure you complete one qualifying SPG® stay this
calendar year. Once you have completed a qualifying SPG stay this calendar year,
you’ll be all set to start earning Starpoints® with Uber.

This is an incredible partnership. And I wonder if you have to check-in to the hotel first, or if it just have to be on the day of your stay or to/from that SPG property...
Because the ride form airport to SPG property could potentially could potentially add up to a lot of points.

"In addition to any such Starpoints you may earn for all Uber rides, you will also earn bonus Starpoints for fares for all Uber rides taken during a Stay at an SPG Participating Hotel, where the Uber ride pick-up time occurs at any time between the date you check-in for such Stay (any time between 12AM through 11:59PM local time on such date) through the date you check-out from such Stay (12:00AM through 11:59PM local time on such date). The amount of bonus Starpoints you will earn will depend on your SPG membership status level at the time the Starpoints are posted to your SPG Member account"

What I did was change the SPG e-mail address temporarily, link the accounts, and changed the addres back to its original form.
I'm therefore assuming the e-mail address only needs to be equal at the point of linking. We shall see after the first ride ^

What a great promotion! Hopefully it won't be difficult to book the Suite Ride on Saturday in San Francisco due to high demand.
