Benefits
Bonvoy Business American Express cardholders are eligible to receive a range of hotel benefits within the Marriott Bonvoy program.
Upon reaching the card anniversary date, the cardholder will receive an annual free night award to be used at Marriott properties. This free night award, worth 35,000 Marriott Bonvoy points, is only awarded after you hold the card for one year, and every anniversary year thereafter. This annual free night can be redeemed at all participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels and can be topped up with up to 15,000 Bonvoy points, making the certificate worth a potential value of 50,000 Bonvoy points (see some of the best hotels in North America to redeem your free night certificate).
Once approved for the Marriott Bonvoy personal card, the cardholder will receive an automatic status upgrade to Marriott Silver Elite status. Unfortunately, Silver Elite status does not come with any truly notable benefits. Cardholders are eligible to be upgraded to Gold Elite status once they stay 10 nights at Marriott properties within one calendar year, or alternatively when they charge $30,000 in purchases to the card within a calendar year.
Upon approval, and again at the start of every calendar year, cardholders will receive 15 elite nights which can put you on the fast track to Marriott Platinum status. These nights are credited to the linked Marriott Bonvoy account and count towards earning yearly Bonvoy elite status in addition to lifetime status.

- Flight delay and baggage delay insurance
- Hotel burglary insurance
- Lost or stolen baggage coverage
- Travel accident coverage
