Marriott Bonvoy has launched a new promotion offering members a bonus when purchasing points. The new offer sees members being offered a bonus specific to their account. In my case, the offer was for a bonus of 35%.
Offer Details
Marriott Bonvoy members will receive a bonus when purchasing 2,000 points or more between August 15 and September 23, 2024. In addition, Marriott Bonvoy members can purchase up to an annual limit of 150,000 points (50,000 points more than usual!)
- Sign in to find your offer
- You can buy or gift at least 2,000 points by September 23
- Redeem your points for free nights in extraordinary destinations and unforgettable experiences.
There are a few additional details around purchasing points to be aware of:
- You may purchase or receive a combined maximum of 100,000 points per calendar year if booked through the Marriott website, Marriott Mobile Apps, or the Customer Engagement Centers. For this promotion, that limit has been increased to 150,000 points.
- In order to buy points, you need to have been a Marriott Bonvoy member for at least 30 days.
- You may purchase an additional 100,000 points annually while booking a hotel stay through the reservation path on Marriott.com.
- As a member, you can gift points to another Marriott Bonvoy account and the recipient will receive the purchased points.
Thoughts
The big benefit of buying points is that you can use the points for award nights. These offers are good if you have such a night in mind as it can end up being cheaper than a cash night.
