Marriott Bonvoy™ Business American Express® Card

An excellent card to get free hotel stays, one of the best deals in Canada

Our favorite card in Canada has a Business version.

As long as you earn any type of independent income (reselling merchandise for example), you are eligible by entering your full name as the business name on the application.

This will not only give you another Marriott welcome bonus, it will give you another very valuable annual free night certificate for very luxurious hotels.

You could get up to 8 free nights with the Welcome Bonus alone, just like with the regular Marriott Card.

The earn rate is also great, with a category multiplier that the regular Marriott Card doesn’t even have on gas, travel, and dining.

Welcome bonus of 50,000 Marriott points
≈ $450 (estimated value 0.9¢/pt)

Accumulation of 3,000 points earned on the $1,500 minimum spend
= $27 (at base earn rate)

Card fee
= $150 (deducted from the total free travel)

Total of ≈ $327 of free travel
(no minimum value)

+ all points earned with your regular purchases

After the $327 Welcome Bonus…

  • 3 pts (≈ 2.7%) per $ on gas, dining, and travel
  • 2 pts (≈ 1.8%) per $ everywhere else

Marriott Points are Variable-Value Points, which means you have to use them wisely to get the most value.
