Chase, a leading co-brand card issuer in the United States, and Marriott Bonvoy®, the renowned travel program and marketplace of Marriott International, have joined forces to significantly enhance the Marriott Bonvoy Bold® Credit Card. The card now boasts a suite of new and improved benefits, making it even more attractive to travel enthusiasts and everyday spenders alike.
One of the most notable additions is the introduction of a Travel Now, Pay Later benefit, providing cardholders with the flexibility to spread the cost of qualifying travel purchases into equal monthly payments. This feature applies to purchases ranging from $100 to $5,000 made directly with airlines or at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels. Notably, there are no interest or plan fees associated with this benefit. The card also offers enhanced earning potential, with cardholders now able to earn 2X points for every dollar spent on groceries, rideshare services, select food delivery services, select streaming services, and internet, cable, and phone services. This addition complements the existing earn rates of up to 14X points per dollar at Marriott Bonvoy hotels and 1X point per dollar on all other purchases.
The Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card also offers automatic Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite status every year, granting cardholders access to various perks, including Priority Late Checkout (when available) and a 10% bonus on points earned during stays. Moreover, cardholders receive 5 Elite Night Credits each calendar year, contributing towards achieving higher Elite status within the Marriott Bonvoy program and unlocking even more exclusive benefits.
These enhancements are designed to bring cardholders closer to their travel aspirations by providing them with more opportunities to earn and redeem points across Marriott Bonvoy’s extensive portfolio of over 30 brands and 10,000 global destinations. “We relaunched the Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card from Chase with the goal of helping new and existing cardmembers make their travel dreams with Marriott Bonvoy a near-term reality,” said Khary Barnes, Managing Director and General Manager of Marriott Bonvoy Co-Brand Cards at Chase. “The addition of the new benefits and features will help the card reach new audiences, with our research demonstrating that both 2X on these everyday purchase categories and the Travel Now, Pay Later benefit highly resonated with Gen Z and Millennial audiences.”
David Flueck, Global Head of Loyalty, Cards and Partnerships, echoed this sentiment, stating, “The enhanced Bold card means every day purchases will turn into free stays throughout the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio of brands even quicker and it comes with no annual fee making it perfect for younger consumers. We are helping fulfill our members’ passions to explore the world by delivering more ways they can earn points and achieve elite status.”
To celebrate the introduction of these enhanced features, the Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card is offering a limited-time welcome bonus to new cardholders: earn 60,000 bonus points and one Free Night Award (worth up to 50,000 points) after spending $2,000 on purchases within the first three months from account opening.
