- ✦Silver Elite status
- ✦Points never expire while the card is open

Why it earns its spot
- +Keeps Bonvoy points from expiring at zero cost
- +60k bonuses on a no-fee card are easy value
Where it costs you
- −No free night certificate, the Boundless perk that matters
- −Weak earn rates
- −Counts against Marriott card eligibility rules
The Compound Verdict
A parking spot, not a strategy. Take the bonus, keep it open to protect your points balance, and put your real spend elsewhere. If you stay at Marriott more than twice a year, the Boundless and its certificate beat this card outright.
