We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Update: One or more card offers in this post are no longer available. Check our Hot Deals for the latest offers.

    If you’re in the market for a hotel credit card that has no annual fee you’re in luck because right now the Marriott Bonvoy Bold™ Credit Card has an increased welcome offer. You can earn 50,000 bonus points after spending $2,000 on purchases in the first three months after opening the account. That matches the highest offer this card has ever had.

    You can apply for the Marriott Bonvoy Bold card here.

    That’s enough Marriott points for a free night at any Marriott hotel up to a Category 6 standard night. The Marriott brands cover everything from luxury hotels (Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis) to hotels that are great for extended stays (TownPlace suites, Residence Inn) and there are around 7,000 locations worldwide. So there is bound to be Marriott wherever you go.

    Marriott Bonvoy Bold 50,000-point offer

    The Chase Marriott Bonvoy Bold doesn’t have the same high-value perks at the other Marriott credit cards, But it can still be worth it because it has no annual fee. For example, every year you keep the card you’ll get 15 elite night credits, which is good for Silver Marriott Bonvoy elite status. Silver status doesn’t get you a ton of perks, but 15 elite night credits is a nice head start on earning Gold or Platinum status with Marriott. You normally need 25 nights to earn Gold and 50 nights for Platinum, so just having the Bonvoy Bold card cuts those numbers down to 10 and 35.

    This card also has no foreign transaction fees and earns 3x points at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels, 2x points on travel purchases and 1x points on all other spending. You’ll also get some potentially useful travel protections, like trip delay reimbursement, lost baggage coverage and baggage delay insurance.

    To learn more about this card read our Chase Marriott Bonvoy Bold review. If you plan on applying, don’t forget that as a Chase credit card is it subject to the Chase 5/24 rule.
