We score this card on five factors — earn rate, real point value, portfolio pooling, merchant bonuses, and your stated goal — recalculated for your specific wallet, not a static rating.
Top effective rate on this card: 1.4¢ per dollar. Full methodology →
Point value context: We value Marriott Bonvoy Points at 0.7¢ per point (conservative estimate). The effective cash value column below reflects this — it's what each reward rate is actually worth per dollar spent, not just the nominal multiplier. How we calculate this →
| Category | Earn Rate | Effective Value |
|---|---|---|
| Everything Else | 2x Marriott Bonvoy Points | 1.4¢/$ |
| Marriott (store-specific bonus) | 5x Marriott Bonvoy Points | 3.5¢/$ |
Rates may be subject to caps, exclusions, enrollment requirements, and issuer-defined merchant categories. See our data verification methodology →
