Our Verdict
Always worth checking your offers to see what you get, how useful this promotion is really depends on the offer you get. This is one of the few promotions that actually has the ability to change where I make reservations, so I always check and enroll.

If your going to bite on this promo, here's a link that will get you double base points when you "click" through their exclusive link. That's an additional 10 pts. per $ @ all IHG hotels except Staybridge Suites &
Candlewood Suites where you get 5 more pts. per $. Read carefully because you must "click" from their landing page.

This seems like it could be relatively easy.
1) Buy points - you can buy as little as 1,000 points
2) Book a stay between dates
3) Use your Chase IHG card - hopefully this means you can use Points + Cash
I'd take an extra 24K points for spending around $50.
Does this work for stays that have been previously booked?
No
i suppose these are only for full-fare stays, not Points or Points+Cash stays, yes?
Depends on the offer, I think sometimes they require a points or points+cash stay.
