New 65% Marriott Bonvoy Transfer Bonus From Chase Ultimate Rewards — But Not for Long

Chase just launched a new transfer bonus for Ultimate Rewards cardholders. Now through June 30, can get a 65% transfer bonus when transferring Ultimate Rewards points to Marriott Bonvoy.

Targeted Marriott Promo: Get Up to a 40% Bonus When You Buy Points

Marriott Bonvoy is offering its members the chance to buy points with a 40% bonus. This bonus drops the effective cost-per-point down to as low as 0.89¢ per point. That opens the door to stays at the most lavish Marriott properties at a fraction of the cost, such as going on a safari in Africa or relaxing in the luxury of Bora Bora. Or, use this promotion to mint airline miles for as little as 1.79¢ per mile. Here's when this promotion could make sense.
