So far, the Marriott & Starwood merger has been favorable in terms of reciprocal benefits between Marriott Rewards, Ritz Carlton-Rewards, & Starwood Preferred Guest. If you haven’t done so already, you can link your accounts to access unparalleled benefits such as instant elite status matching and unlimited points transfer among the three programs.
Starting today, now co-branded card-members can now earn expanded reciprocal earning-benefits too!
In addition to existing reward benefits, U.S.-based American Express and Chase Card Members can now enjoy the following NEW benefits:
- Marriott Rewards Premier Credit Card from Chase Card Members can earn 5 Marriott Rewards points for each dollar spent using the Card on qualifying purchases made at participating SPG properties globally.
- The Ritz-Carlton Rewards Credit Card from JPMorgan Card Members can earn five Ritz-Carlton Rewards points for each dollar spent using the Card on qualifying purchases made at participating SPG properties globally.
- Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express by American Express Card Members can earn two Starpoints per dollar using the Card directly at hotels participating in Marriott Rewards globally.
These changes certainly add value to whichever co-branded credit card you hold, because you have more flexibility to earn points during your stays at new properties.
