Marriott To Offer 10X Bonus Categories


One of the highlights of our trip to Panama last year was dining in Don Jose, named one of the top 50 best restaurants in the world.  Since we aren't traveling right now, I am working on collecting as many points and miles as I can. And chasing the bonus categories for credit cards can be an easy way to do this fast. 
Marriott is launching new bonus categories for its line of Chase credit cards on July 15th. American Express is not included. The promotion 10x points on gas stations and restaurants including delivery purchases. You may not be buying much gas right now, but if you get takeout, then you will want to use the right card. 

Marriott cards included in this promotion are:

You will need to register your card by September 20, 2020, it's easy and takes no time at all. Then you will earn 10x points up to $3500 in combined purchases from July 15, 2020 through September 15, 2020. 
I keep a cheat sheet or write notes on each credit card so I know which one to use for which purchase to maximize points. 
If you don't have a Marriott Chase card, you can take a look at the different cards here. They range from the $95 annual fee to the $450 annual fee. Marriott points are super flexible since you can transfer them to dozens of different airlines and use them to book Marriott hotels which include dozens of different hotel brands. 
However, the points have been devalued over the last few years so my first choice right now is collecting Chase Ultimate Rewards Points and Marriott points are second.
