The details of Marriott Bonvoy's global promotion have just been released. The Marriott didn't have a promotion in the summer. It's hard to be excited about a new promotion.
Earn up to 4K points per stay with Marriott promo
Marriott has a new global promotion.
Members can earn 2,000 Bonvoy bonus points per eligible stay, starting with the second stay
Those with a co-branded Marriott credit card can earn an additional 2,000 bonus points for each eligible stay at a different brand, starting with the second brand
There are some details to be aware of when it comes to registration for this promotion.
The promotion is valid for stays between September 21 and December 15, 2022, regardless of when they’re booked
Registration is required prior to your first eligible stay, and registration closes on December 1, 2022
Only stays paid with cash qualify toward this promotion, so award stays don’t qualify
The standard bonus points will post within seven business days of checking out of a hotel, while bonus points from staying at new brands will post within six weeks of checking out of a hotel
There’s no limit to how many bonus points you can earn
All hotels globally are participating, and there’s no minimum length of stay required to unlock the bonus
This promotion is better than nothing, but I don't think it's worth anything.
I value Marriott Bonvoy points at 0.7 cents each, meaning that 2,000 bonus points is worth $14 to me
That means starting with your second stay you get a bonus of $14 per stay, plus co-branded credit card holders get a bonus of an additional $14 for each brand they stay at
If you are making longer stays or staying at expensive properties, this promotion is for you.
Normal Marriott Bonvoy points earning rates
Marriott Bonvoy members usually make more than this promotion does.
10x Bonvoy points per dollar spent at most brands
5x Bonvoy points per dollar spent at Element, Residence Inn, and TownePlace Suites
There are bonuses for the best.
You can earn points for credit card spending at hotels.
I earn Bonvoy points for every dollar I spend as a Titanium member. That is like a 16% return on hotel spending.
Members need to register for Marriott Bonvoy's upcoming global promotion. Members earn 2,000 bonus points for every paid stay, and those with a co- branded credit card earn an additional 2,000 bonus points for every brand they stay at, starting with the second brand.
