American Express Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant Credit Card Welcome Offer increased to 185,000 points (Bevy, 155,000)

+19 Deal Score
21,393 Views
Offer ends 05/01/2024. The standard Brilliant offer is 85,000 Marriott points which is now up 100,000 points to 185,000. The Bevy is also up to a 155,000 point welcome offer.

I have the Brilliant card and it's a great way to earn Platinum status automatically, but also to work towards Lifetime Platinum with 25 elite night credits. Stack with the Marriott Bonvoy Business card for a total of 40 elite nights each year, only 10 away from earning suite night awards. The $650 annual fee is steep, but easily reducible to $350 with the $300 dining credit ($25 per month), which is so easy to get it's nearly same-as-cash. It also provides an annual free night award at a 85,000 point redemption level (higher than other cards). And it comes with Priority Pass Select for airport lounge access like most premium cards. That's a lot of value for $350 per year.

The terms say if you have received a Marriott Bonvoy Chase [Boundless, Bold, Bountiful] signup bonus in the last 24 months you do not qualify for the bonus.

How does the lifetime platinum work? If I have another Marriot account/CC does that count toward 40 nights? Is it just 40 nights while you have this card to get lifetime plat? 10 yrs is a long time to hold this card.
