What Changed
The promotion increases the Marriott points eligible members receive from a Membership Rewards transfer by 35%. A transfer of 1,000 Membership Rewards points yields 1,350 Marriott points instead of the usual 1,000. The offer is targeted and runs through December 10, 2026.
Our Take
Consider this only if you have a specific Marriott use in mind and have compared the value of the points you would give up. A larger Marriott balance alone is not a reason to transfer.
Before You Act
- 1Check whether you are targeted for the bonus.
- 2Compare the value of your planned Marriott use with keeping Membership Rewards points.
- 3If proceeding, transfer by December 10, 2026.
