What it is

25 Marriott Bonvoy Elite Night Credits each year with the card. These count toward elite-status qualification. They are not a statement credit.

Summarized from American Express’s published terms, checked September 28, 2026. Terms change — confirm details with American Express before you rely on them.

When it resets

One window per calendar year, ending December 31.

The current window closes on December 31, 2026 — 91 days from today.

How not to lose it

  • This resets with the calendar year. December is when most people remember, so book early if availability is limited.
  • Don’t wait for the last day. Statement credits can take days to post, and a purchase that settles after the window closes may not count.
  • Pay with the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant. The credit only follows purchases charged to the card that carries it.
