You can’t get any extra referral points for the upgrade route. Once you have been accepted for the upgrade you can get the dining credits/HN added more or less straight away, by calling if necessary so it’s more a question of whether you can use them before the year end. The new card should show up on your Apple wallet almost straight away so you won’t need the physical card that might get stuck in Xmas post.
The existing offers on your gold card should automatically transfer to the new card.
