The point.me verdict

3/5

The Marriott Bonvoy Bevy® American Express® Card lives or dies on one perk: 1,000 bonus points per eligible stay, so it's built for road warriors piling up short one- and two-night stays. You also get Gold status and 15 elite night credits. Catch: no free-night certificate on a steep $250 fee, so if you're not stacking many stays a year, skip it. Show rates & fees.

What we love

  • Strong earning on eligible paid Marriott stays
  • 1,000 bonus points per eligible direct-booked stay
  • Gold status and 15 elite night credits toward status

What we don't

  • No free-night certificate despite a steep $250 fee
  • Only worth it if you stack many short stays a year
Marriott Bonvoy
