Marriott Bonvoy and Starbucks Team Up to Offer Enhanced Rewards for Loyalty Members

Marriott Bonvoy and Starbucks are revolutionizing the way loyalty programs interact by allowing their members to link their accounts, providing enhanced opportunities to earn rewards across both platforms. This partnership caters to U.S. members who are enthusiastic about both travel and coffee.

Members can now link their accounts through the dedicated portal at Starbucks.com/MarriottBonvoy. By doing so, they will enjoy the perk of earning Double Stars on eligible Starbucks purchases during stays at Marriott Bonvoy properties. This initiative not only enhances the value of both loyalty programs but also enriches the customer experience at participating locations.

Moreover, the collaboration introduces “Marriott Bonvoy Weeks”—specific weeks throughout the year when linked members can earn additional rewards. The inaugural week runs from July 8 to July 14, during which members can earn 100 Marriott Bonvoy points by making three qualifying purchases at Starbucks.

To celebrate the launch of this innovative partnership, a sweepstakes has been announced, running until July 7. Members who link their accounts have a chance to win an array of exciting prizes. The Grand Prize includes a trip to visit all three Starbucks Reserve Roasteries located in Seattle, Milan, and Tokyo, complete with Marriott Bonvoy hotel stays and round-trip airfare. Additionally, other prizes include trips to a single Starbucks Reserve location and 500 opportunities to win Bonus Stars from Starbucks.

David Flueck, Global Head of Loyalty, Cards & Enterprise Partnerships at Marriott International, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, highlighting the natural synergy between coffee enjoyment and travel. “This collaboration not only allows our members to earn more points and Stars during their travels and daily life but will also introduce exclusive coffee- and travel-themed experiences later this year through Marriott Bonvoy Moments,” said Flueck.

This strategic partnership between Marriott Bonvoy and Starbucks reflects a trend towards more integrated loyalty programs, offering members greater flexibility and value from their memberships.
