American Express Canada and Marriott have teamed up to provide a limited time points earning boost for holders of the Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Card. From now until January 3, 2021 cardmembers can earn an additional 5 Marriott Bonvoy points per dollar spent with Marriott. This means you would earn 10 points per dollar spent as the card’s base earn rate on Marriott purchases is 5 points per dollar. That’s a huge boost and the crazy part of the promotion is that non-Marriott stay purchases such as buying Marriott gift cards or merchandise purchases from Marriott count as well. So even if you aren’t planning any Marriott stays in the next two months you could always order gift cards from them for those future travels of yours. The promotion is open to all Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Cardmembers including those who apply for and receive the card during the promotional period.
