As of June 17, Chase has updated the bonus offer: Earn 30,000 bonus points after spending $1,000 on purchases in the first three months from account opening. This is a 20,000-point decrease from its previous offer, but the rewards program hasn’t changed.

Cardholders earn up to 14X total Bonvoy points per $1 spent at over 7,000 participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels. Cardholders will also earn 2X points per $1 spent on travel purchases, as well as 1X point per $1 spent on all other eligible purchases.

If you aren’t a loyal Marriott customer

For those who don’t frequently stay at hotels in the Marriott portfolio, (which includes The Ritz-Carlton and Sheraton hotels), you could benefit more from a general travel rewards credit card.The Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card is a popular choice for its rewards program offering 5X points on Lyft rides through March 2022, 2X points on travel and dining worldwide and 1X points on all other purchases. The best part? It is currently offering a massive 100,000-point bonus after you spend $4,000 within the first three months from account opening.

How to know if you qualify for the Marriott Bonvoy welcome bonuses 

Both the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless Credit Card and Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card reportedly fall under Chase’s 5/24 rule, which means that you can’t be approved for either if you’ve opened five or more personal credit cards (from any card issuer) within the past 24 months.

For example, if you’ve opened two Citi cards and three Amex cards within the past 24 months then you will likely be denied for a new Chase card until your 5/24 score decreases. There really aren’t any workarounds to the 5/24 rule, beyond waiting for a new account to be over 24 months old.
