Promo Details
View From The Wing flagged that there's a new Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles credit card in the U.S. The card is backed by Imprint and issued by First Electronic Bank.
Let's take a look at the details.

Benefits
Strangely, I don't see any benefits offered when flying with Turkish Airlines.
Annual Fee
Travel on Points: "There is a Sapphire Preferred bonus issue that recent applicants are running into. From what we can tell, this appears to be a glitch in the matrix, on Chase's end. It also appears to be happening to people who signed up for the card over the last month, likely when the increased offer was still around and kicking. If you are being told that you are not eligible for the Chase Sapphire Preferred welcome offer, or you don't see a bonus offer tracker, then know you are not alone."
You can earn double elite night credits and 1,000 bonus points per qualifying night at participating properties in Florida if you stay by September 30, 2024. There is a cap of 20 nights for this promo which means you can earn up to 40 elite night credits and 20,000 bonus points.
You can now link your Marriott Bonvoy and Starbucks Rewards accounts. For those who have already linked their Delta SkyMiles account to Starbucks, this should stack as well.
Marriott X Starbucks Partnership Details
During Marriott stays, you can earn double Starbucks Rewards Stars.
During promotional weeks, earn 100 Marriott Bonvoy points when you make 3 transactions during that week.
In the future, Starbucks will be incorporated into Marriott Bonvoy Moments.
Points Wire Note:
Yawn.
IHG One Rewards has launched a promo to incentivize people to join the program. New members can receive 5,000 IHG points if they complete an eligible stay at an IHG property within 21 days of joining. The registration period ends September 13, 2024. Points can take up to 6 weeks to post.
What is an eligible stay?
"For purposes of this Offer, a “Promotion Eligible Qualifying Stay” is defined as a minimum 1-night stay at a participating hotel that was booked directly with IHG through ihg.com, the IHG One Rewards app, an IHG reservations call center, an authorized travel agent (excluding any online travel agents or other online travel reservation sites, such as Expedia.com and booking.com, and unauthorized agents on online vertical travel portals), or directly with a participating hotel, using a Qualifying Rate and with a total spend exceeding $30 USD (or local equivalent) per night."
If you're thinking about applying for the Amex Platinum, select cardholders now have a referral link to a 175,000-point welcome offer. The minimum spend required for this offer is $8,000 in 6 months.

Thrifty Traveler: "Rather than earning a flat 1x for every $1 you spend at Starbucks after linking your accounts, Delta flyers will soon only earn bonus skyMiles when reloading their Starbucks accounts in the coffee giant's app with at least $25. That change is coming soon: It's effective June 12."
Earn Rate By Reload Amount
One Mile At A Time: "Hyatt Studios is Hyatt’s new extended stay brand, which is described as Hyatt’s entry into the upper-midscale lodging market."
"The major catch is that points earning at these properties has been reduced by 50% compared to Hyatt’s existing brands. You’ll only earn 2.5x points per dollar spent at Hyatt Studios properties, rather than the usual 5x points."
