Trackable Benefits (3)
These are the annual credits, statement credits, and perks that our platform tracks and reminds you about. For complete details on all card benefits including travel protections, purchase protections, and points earning rates, check the official card page for the most up-to-date information.
Marriott Bonvoy Free Night Award
One free night up to 85,000 points after each renewal month.
Receive one Free Night Award for a one-night stay at a participating Marriott Bonvoy property requiring up to 85,000 points after the first card renewal month and each renewal thereafter. Renewal month determines eligibility; the certificate may be issued later, and the actual Marriott certificate expiry controls. The app's anniversary period is not an issue date or stay deadline. You may add up to 25,000 points; resort fees and incidentals may apply.
Brilliant Dining Credit
$25 monthly restaurant statement credit, up to $300 per year.
Receive up to $25 in statement credits each calendar month, up to $300 per calendar year per Card Account, for eligible restaurant purchases worldwide. Basic and Additional Card Member purchases share the account-level cap. Gift cards, merchandise, and purchases at non-restaurant merchants are excluded. The credit is automatic; enrollment is not required.
Global Entry or TSA PreCheck Credit
Up to $120 for Global Entry or up to $85 for TSA PreCheck once every 4 years.
Receive either a $120 statement credit for Global Entry or up to $85 for a TSA PreCheck application fee. Only one credit is given in a 4-year period for whichever eligible application fee is charged to the Card first. NEXUS is not included. The primary and Additional Card Members share the Card Account's four-year credit pool.
Other Notable Benefits
The following benefits are included with this card but are not tracked by our platform (no expiration dates or usage limits to monitor).
- Complimentary Platinum Elite status and 25 Elite Night Credits each calendar year. Elite Night Credits from personal Marriott cards do not stack; Marriott applies the highest eligible personal-card allowance plus an eligible business-card allowance.
- Priority Pass membership with unlimited lounge visits requires enrollment. Guest access depends on the current Priority Pass terms.
- Up to $100 in property credit for qualifying charges at The Ritz-Carlton or St. Regis when you book directly using the '$100 Property Credit, Luxury Credit Card Rate,' stay at least two nights, and pay with the card. This is not an annual statement credit.
- After $60,000 in eligible calendar-year purchases, select one Brilliant Earned Choice Award. It is one choice, not an automatic second Free Night Award; use https://www.choice-benefit.marriott.com/brilliant for the selection and deadline.
The estimated annual values shown are conservative estimates based only on the trackable benefits our platform manages (annual credits, statement credits, and recurring perks).
Not included in our estimates:
- • Sign-up bonuses and welcome offers
- • Points earning multipliers and redemption value
- • Travel protections (trip insurance, baggage delay, rental car coverage)
- • Purchase protections (extended warranty, price protection, return protection)
- • Cell phone protection and other insurance benefits
- • Transfer partner value and premium redemptions
The actual value you get from premium cards is often significantly higher than our estimates. We track what's trackable - credits and perks with expiration dates - so you never leave money on the table.
