American Express has released its new Marriot Bonvoy card named Bevy.
Some Key Points:
$250 AF
6x on Marriott
4x on Dining and Groceries
2x on Everything Else
1K Bonus Points Per Stay
1 Free Night Award after spending $15,000 (per year)
Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite Status
125,000 points after spending $4k in 3 months
Changes to Brilliant:
Increased AF from $450 to $650
New $300 Dining Statement Credit ($25/month)
Removed $300 Marriott Credit
Complimentary Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite Status
25 elite night credits toward elite status
Free night certificate (up to 85,000 points) on card renewal
My Thoughts:
Bevy sounds like the Amex Gold if it was only focused on Marriott points. If you're heavily focused on Marriott this card is a great deal but having no credits to offset the AF sounds rough and will most likely push most people to Brilliant since its EAF is lower. Amex changing from the Marriott credit to a dining credit on Brilliant is incredibly in character and I'm sure many won't like this change. These cards look interesting but I'm not sure either are worth it.
