To the point
For a limited time, you can buy Marriott Bonvoy points with a 50% bonus!
Get more Marriott Bonvoy points when you buy or gift points
Until December 22, 2020, you can buy Marriott Bonvoy points with a 60% bonus.
During this offer, until December 22, 2020, the maximum limit of points you can buy during a year has been increased from 50,000 to 150,000 points.
You will have to buy at least 2,000 points to get the 60% bonus.
For example, it will cost you 625 US$ to buy 50,000 points, and you will get 25,000 bonus points. So for 625 US$, you’ll get 75,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.
Aside from buying points, there are two ways to get Marriott Bonvoy points:
- By staying in Marriott Bonvoy Hotels (and benefit from hotel stays promotions)
- By applying for one or more credit cards earning Marriott Bonvoy points
How do I get Marriott Bonvoy points in Canada?
For Canadians, it’s pretty easy to get Marriott Bonvoy points.
Indeed, there are two Marriott Bonvoy branded-credit cards and each offer a significant welcome bonus:
With those cards, you earn between 2 and 5 Marriott Bonvoy points per dollar for your purchases.
You can earn Marriott Bonvoy points by converting American Express Membership Rewards points from these six cards:
Our favourite is the American Express Cobalt™ Card.
It earns 5x the points for everyday expenses such as groceries, convenience stores, restaurants, bars purchases and even food deliveries.
If you convert your points to Marriott Bonvoy, it’s like earning6 Marriott Bonvoy points per dollar on those purchases. That’s exceptional!
Conclusion
Buying Marriott Bonvoy points can, therefore, be interesting for some, whether with a specific goal in mind or to complete a points balance to get discounted hotel night!
But if you are not in one of these situations, we advise you not to buy points: it will be more beneficial to get Marriott Bonvoy points directly or indirectly with a credit card.
