You can now earn up to 110,000 Marriott Bonvoy points, one of the strongest offers we’ve seen in Canada. But what does that really mean in terms of value? Let’s break it down.
80,000 points after spending $6,000 in the first 6 months
30,000 points after making a purchase in the 15th month
Annual Fee: $120
Earning Rates:
5x points at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels
2x points on all other purchases
Perks:
Annual Free Night Award up to 35,000 points
Automatic Silver Elite status and 15 Elite Night Credits yearly
Opportunity to reach Gold Elite after $30,000 in purchases or qualifying stays
Example Value:The W Toronto currently charges around 35,000 points per night. That means your welcome bonus alone could cover three free nights, worth over $1,000, for a card that costs just $120 per year. Then, every year after, your annual free night could be worth $400 or more at top Marriott hotels.

Employee card controls and full business management tools
The Business card is ideal if you run a business or spend heavily on travel, dining, or gas, as it maximizes points earning potential across multiple categories.
Why This Offer Stands Out
One of Canada’s only co-branded hotel credit cards, few alternatives can deliver this kind of hotel points value.
Flexible points redemption, no blackout dates at over 7,000 hotels worldwide.
Annual Free Night Award, keeps delivering value year after year.
Elite status perks, complimentary Silver Elite, with a clear path to Gold.
Even if you are new to hotel points, these offers are extremely user-friendly and easy to maximize.
Quick Tips to Maximize Value
Plan your $6,000 (Personal) or $10,000 (Business) spending strategically in the first 6 months to unlock the 80,000-point portion of the bonus.
Use your annual free night at high-value properties such as W Toronto, JW Marriott, or other hotels charging 30,000–35,000 points per night.
Keep the card long-term to take advantage of yearly free nights and continued elite status benefits.
Final Thoughts
Personally, I have held the Personal Marriott Bonvoy Amex for a few years now, and it has consistently delivered excellent value. With the welcome bonus more than doubling to 110,000 points, there has never been a better time for Canadians to get in on these cards.
If you want to take advantage of this offer, remember it expires April 7, 2026. If you apply through my website, you help support The Canadian Jetsetter, and I appreciate it.
