Chase and Marriott Bonvoy have announced new and enhanced benefits on the Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card enabling card members to earn more Marriott Bonvoy points toward free stays and Marriott Bonvoy Moments experiences.

Additionally, members now have access to a new Travel Now, Pay Later benefit allowing cardmembers to break up qualifying travel purchases into equal monthly payments, with no interest and no plan fees. This benefit is available on purchases between $100 to $5,000 made directly with an airline or at hotels participating in Marriott Bonvoy. As always, points will be earned on these purchases.

Marriott Bonvoy Bold cardmembers now earn 2X points on every $1 spent on purchases at grocery stores and for rideshare, select food delivery, select streaming, and internet, cable and phone services. Cardmembers will receive Automatic Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite status every year, which includes perks like Priority Late Checkout (when available) and 10 percent more points toward free stays and Marriott Bonvoy experiences.

Cardmembers will also receive five Elite Night Credits every calendar year to help them achieve even higher Elite status in Marriott Bonvoy. These upgrades offer up to 14X total points for every $1 spent at hotels participating in Marriott Bonvoy and 1X for every $1 spent on all other purchases.

“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 added, “The enhanced Bold card means everyday 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 card’s new benefits and features, the Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card is introducing its best offer ever for new cardmembers: 60,000 bonus points and one Free Night Award (valued up to 50,000 points) after spending $2,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening.
