To the point New American Express measures for its Cardmembers: Earn 5 Marriott Bonvoy points for eligible food purchases until August 31st!

5 points per dollar for eligible food purchases

American Express Canada continues to take care of its Cardmembers.

After a great offer to its Platinum Cardmembers, and another exciting offer to American Express Cobalt™ Cardmembers, American Express is now taking care of its Marriott Bonvoy™ American Express® Cardmembers.

From May 15 to August 31, 2020, Marriott Bonvoy Credit Cardmembers can enjoy some temporary earning rates increases, up to a limit of 30,000 points over the period (or $10,000 in eligible credit card purchases):

Category Earning rate
Groceries 5 points per dollar
Food delivery 5 points per dollar
Takeout 5 points per dollar

Marriott Bonvoy Credit Cardmembers still earn

  • 5 points per dollar in Card purchases at Marriott Bonvoy properties
  • 2 points per dollar in all other Card purchases

This is a great offer for Marriott Bonvoy™ American Express® Cardmembers.

However, if you also have the American Express Cobalt™ Card in your wallet – and want to earn Marriott Bonvoy points – this Card will be even more worthwhile.

Indeed, you earn the equivalent of 6 Marriott Bonvoy points per dollar for these same purchase categories. This is the best credit card to use for groceries.
