Free 200 SPG Points when you opt in for email, newsletter and other communications from SPG, valid November 24, 2015. Starwood Preferred Guest launched a new dash board and if you go to their page you will see a “Opt in and earn” button, if you are a member simply click “Update Your Account” you see a confirmation screen then you are done. Starwood Preferred Guest points are hard to earn as you can usually only get them from staying at the hotel or through credit card use. So this is a nice and surprisingly easy way to earn 200 points. Most people like SPG points because they transfer to a number of other airlines with a 25% and can be used for other hotels world wide. This Starwood points offer can only be earned once.

Bottom Line:

This is a quick and easy way to earn Free Starwood points to keep your points from expiring. It shouldn’t take you more then a few minutes to earn your free points. Its not a lot but when it comes to SPG points, every little bit counts as they are not usually easy to earn without spending. When traveling book your hotel, flights and other expenses, I recommend to use the Amex Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card to maximize your savings.
