Two people can earn 200,000 Marriott Bonvoy points, worth approximately $1,900.
For example, each one applies to the Marriott BonvoyMD American ExpressMD* Card. Its welcome offer gives 50,000 points by charging $1,500 in purchases to the card in the first 3 months after joining. With two people, this will earn more than 100,000 points.
Then, when you add your Marriott BonvoyMD Business American Express®* Card twin ExpressMD*, you earn another 50,000 points per person! What’s more, each card entitles you to one free night’s stay per year, worth 35,000 points or less, when you renew each year.
