Some Marriott co-branded cardholders can now enroll in a targeted bonus-points promotion. You may be eligible to earn an extra 3,000 points after spending $1,500, or 4,000 points after spending $2,000. That works out to an extra 2x points overall. If you already need to meet a spending requirement on a newly opened card, it may be worth registering to pick up some additional rewards.

The following cards, plus the Ritz-Carlton card, are eligible:
