Our Verdict
Previous best bonus was 125k points + free night certificate. We’ve also seen a similar gift card offer, but that was $250 + 75k. Keep in mind this has a $95 annual fee, so it’s really $205 + 75k points (well really less than that as the Marriott gift card isn’t worth face value). Some people might prefer this offer and others will prefer to wait for a bigger point bonus to return.
