One of the credit cards I personally hold just introduced a feature for existing cardholders and introduced a massive bonus for those looking for a new hotel card.

Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card
The Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card awards new members five (5) Free Night Awards worth up to 50,000 points each after you spend $3,000 on eligible purchases within three (3) months of being approved for card membership. Each night is valued at up to 50,000 points, making this promotion worth up to 250,000 points! (You can learn more here about the Chase Marriott cards and how to apply.)
I’ve held the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card for several years, primarily because of its annual Free Night. Cardmembers receive a Free Night award starting the second year of membership. It’s valued at up to 35,000 points. But if you find a night priced at 50,000 points or less, you’re still in luck. You can apply up to 15,000 Bonvoy points to make up the difference.
The card earns 3X Bonvoy points per dollar spent on gas stations, grocery stores, and dining — up to the first $6,000 spent in combined purchases each year.
Nothing stellar but it’s slightly better than the 2X points all other non-bonused purchases earn.
The card also features:
- Up to 17X per dollar spent at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels
- 2X on non-bonused purchases
- Free anniversary night (starting year two of card membership) redeemable at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels valued at 35,000 points or under
- 15 elite status night credits
- Complimentary Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite status
- $95 annual fee
A $95 annual fee for a card that awards you one night at a 35,000-point property is certainly decent.
$100 Airline Credit for 2026!
Here’s an “exclusive for 2026” benefit that’s available to both new and existing cardholders.
You can earn a one-time $50 statement credit for eligible airline spending of $250 or more from now through June, then again from July through December. Activation is required — you can do that here or call the number on the back of your card.
No Annual Fee Card with Two Free Nights!
If that $95 annual fee really turns you off but you still want to get in on some action, you can have some fun with the Marriott Bonvoy Bold® Card. That card’s promotion offers two Free Night Awards worth 50,000 points each after you spend $1,000 on eligible purchases within three (3) months of being approved. (Learn here how to apply for this promotion.)
The card earns 3X Bonvoy points per dollar spent on gas stations, grocery stores, and dining — up to the first $6,000 spent in combined purchases each year.
Nothing stellar but it’s slightly better than the 2X points all other non-bonused purchases earn.
The card features:
- Earn up to 14X per dollar spent at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels
- Earn 2X at grocery stores
- Earn 2X on rideshare and select food delivery
- Earn 2X on select streaming, and internet, cable, and phone service purchases
- Earn 1X on all other non-bonused purchases
- $0 annual fee
There are no annual Free Night awards or complimentary elite status with the Bold Card.
Happy earning and staying!

Can these 50k nights be topped off with the 15k to book up to 65k per night awards?
Hi, Christian. I didn’t see anything in the terms saying they can.
When I got the 5-night certs from the Marriott Business Amex, I was able to redeem adding extra points on top of the 50K – however, I don’t remember if 65K total per night is the max.
Also, since I just got those free 5-nights within the last 24 months, I’m disqualified from this offer. Bummer.
Thanks for the data points, Jared. The Marriott Business Amex certs might be different because 1) they’re a business product, although that’s not necessarily a major difference and 2) their Amex products are somewhat different.
It’s kind of a pain in the neck that they have so many products split across two issuers. I’m surprised Cap One and Citi haven’t gotten into the Marriott game 🙂
Your Free Night Award may not be combined with cash when redeeming for your free night but may be combined with Marriott Bonvoy points in accordance with the Marriott Bonvoy Terms and Conditions. From terms and conditions: Members are able to redeem or purchase up to 15,000 Points to expand the value of such Free Night Award
