Chase, the largest co-brand card issuer in the U.S., and Marriott Bonvoy®, Marriott International’s award-winning travel program and marketplace, today announced new and enhanced benefits on the Marriott Bonvoy Bold^® Credit Card. Marriott Travel Now, Pay Later

Cardmembers now earn more Marriott Bonvoy points toward free stays and Marriott Bonvoy Moments experiences on a variety of popular everyday spend categories, and have access to an exciting new Travel Now, Pay Later benefit. These enhancements aim to help cardmembers get one step closer to their travel goals by unlocking more inspiring experiences around the world among Marriott Bonvoy’s extraordinary portfolio of more than 30 extraordinary brands and 10,000 global destinations. The card still has no annual fee, even with the addition of these new benefits and features.

With the new Travel Now, Pay Later benefit, cardmembers can now break up qualifying travel purchases into equal monthly payments, with no interest and no plan fees*. This benefit is available on purchases between $100 to $5,000 made directly with an airline or at hotels participating in Marriott Bonvoy. Cardmembers earn points on these purchases, like usual.

In addition, Marriott Bonvoy Bold cardmembers now earn 2X points on every $1 spent on purchases at grocery stores and for rideshare, select food delivery, select streaming, and internet, cable, and phone services.
