There are multiple Marriott credit cards that stay safely in each of our wallets year after year for a few reasons. Our travel styles and goals are pretty different — Katie is a digital nomad, while Summer usually travels with her family — but we both happily renew our Marriott Bonvoy cards each year because of the value they offer.
One of the primary ways we get value from our Marriott cards is with a free night award certificate each year after renewing the card. Marriott free night awards come in various denominations. But in this story, we'll focus on the 35,000-point certificates — offered by the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card (see rates and fees) and the Marriott Bonvoy Business® American Express® Card — and how we use them.
As mentioned above, you can earn a 35,000-point certificate at each account renewal with the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless Credit Card and Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Card. Plus, you'll earn another free night award after you spend $60,000 in purchases on your Marriott Bonvoy Business Amex in a calendar year.
