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.
