How long do I have to earn the Marriott Boundless welcome bonus?

You must spend $3,000 within the first 3 months from account opening to earn the 3 free night certificates. This breaks down to $1,000 per month in spending, making it accessible for most households' regular expenses.

Can I enhance the 50,000-point free night certificate?

Yes, you can add up to 15,000 points from your account to use the certificate at properties costing up to 65,000 points per night. This significantly expands your options to include luxury resorts and premium urban properties.

Am I eligible if I have other Marriott credit cards?

Eligibility depends on your specific Marriott card history and timing. You cannot currently hold certain Marriott Amex cards, and various 24-month and 90-day restrictions apply. Check Chase's detailed eligibility matrix before applying to ensure you qualify for the bonus.

What elite status benefits come with the card?

You receive automatic Marriott Bonvoy Silver elite status, 15 elite night credits annually, and 1 additional elite night credit for every $5,000 spent. Spending $35,000 annually upgrades you to Gold status for enhanced benefits.

When do I receive the annual free night certificate?

The annual free night certificate (up to 35,000 points, expandable to 50,000) appears on your account anniversary starting in your second year of card membership. This ongoing benefit helps justify the $95 annual fee.

Does the card have foreign transaction fees?

No, the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless card has no foreign transaction fees, making it useful for international travel. This benefit applies to all purchases made in foreign currencies or with international merchants.

Can I combine this with other Marriott credit cards?

Yes, many cardholders successfully maintain both Chase and American Express Marriott cards simultaneously. Elite night credits stack between cards, and you can earn welcome bonuses from different issuers, subject to specific eligibility rules.

Is this offer available for a limited time?

While described as a limited-time offer, Chase hasn't specified an exact end date. Given that welcome offers can change quickly and without notice, it's advisable to apply soon if you're interested and meet the eligibility requirements.
