- The Marriott Bonvoy Bold Credit Card from Chase is giving away 5 million of the hotel chain’s loyalty points to travelers who want to get their plans out of their group chats and into the real world.
- The “Bold Chat Court” promotion enlists singer, songwriter and actress Halle Bailey as a judge, who will review travelers’ entries and award 500,000 points each to 10 winners who make the strongest case for why their trips should be moved out of the group-chat planning stage.
- Consumers can enter the contest by creating and sharing an Instagram Reel describing their dream group trip and explaining why it has been stuck in the planning stages. They must then also share that reel through the brand’s contest website for judging. The contest is open through October 30.
“The struggle to get group trips out of the planning phase and into reality is a feeling so many can relate to,” said Khary Barnes, managing director and general manager of Marriott Co-Brands Cards at Chase, in a release. “Bold Chat Court sheds light on this common travel pain and aims to help make the next trip more within reach.”
The Bold Chat Court promotion is designed to draw attention to the newly introduced benefits added to the Marriott Bonvoy Bold Card, including the ability to break up qualifying travel purchases into monthly payments, expanded opportunities and categories to earn reward points and automatic Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite status, which includes priority late checkout and 10% more points for Marriott Bonvoy hotel stays.
