Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a good offer that can be worth up to 185,000 Marriott Bonvoy points if maximized. But you also have to pay the annual fee which is $450. The Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant® American Express® Card does have many benefits so it should be worth applying if you can maximize them.
Keep in mind that Marriott Bonvoy recently moved to dynamic pricing. It will also soon add a top up option for Free Night Awards. You will be bale to combine it with up to 15,000 points and access more hotels.
