Marriott 70,000 Rewards Points-Unbelievable

UPDATE: It looks like this offer has expired. I’ve removed the link as it looks like it has gone back to the 50,000 offer. The Marriott Rewards® Premier Credit Card offer is still a great deal!!

Hold your horses for everyone who was considering the 50,000 Marriott Rewards points card. This one takes the cake.

This is the best Marriott card that I’ve ever seen. Make sure you take a picture of the landing screen to show that it was the offer for which you applied. You can take screenshots in the following way:

• Mac: Hold Command, Shift, and 4 all at the same time.  It will give you a little cross that you use to select what you want to save.  It will save it as a jpg on the desktop.
• Windows 7: Use the Snapshot tool to select and save the screen wherever you would like.

I would always make a habit of saving those landing pages to make sure that you can prove the offer for which you applied.  When you are fishing for the best offer you want to make sure you prove that your application was for the correct sign on bonus.

This offer is better than the previous offer for a few reasons…

• An Additional 20,000 points from the previous offer, or an additional 40,000 Marriott Rewards Points from the normal offer.  I usually shoot for offers that get me 50,000 or more.  This one definitely meets the criteria.
• No Foreign Transaction Fees.  This is great for people who like to travel overseas.  It can save you 3% from most cards.  A lot of cards have that fee, which can add up if you are spending a lot on your credit card.
• Wavied annual fee.  This saves you $85.

Plus you still get:

• 15 nights toward an elite qualification status.
• One free night at a category 1-4 hotel
• Unlimited earning potential
• 5 Points per dollar spent at a Marriott
• 2 Points per dollar spent at hotels, airfare, car rental, etc
• 1 Point on everything else.

Chase keeps handing out the best offers all the time.  You can only apply for a new card every 30 days, and they are pretty limited on how often they will approve you.  If you haven’t had a Chase approval in the last little bit and you need a hotel card this is an OUTSTANDING offer.

Thanks to mr. Sun_AA for the tip.
