American Express is running a fresh round of targeted Marriott statement-credit offers through November 23, 2026. If it shows up in your account, you can get back up to 40% of what you spend on a Marriott stay. This same offer type has reappeared several times in 2026 with slightly different numbers each round — here’s what’s live right now and how to check if you’re targeted.
The Current Offer
Offers are targeted and vary by account. The most commonly reported version is the richest:
| Spend | Statement Credit |
|---|---|
| $375+ | $150 (most common version) |
| $400+ | $100 |
| $250+ | $50 |
A few accounts are reportedly seeing other versions entirely — $150 back on $300 spent, or $200 back on $450 spent — so the exact terms depend on what your account shows. Log in and check before assuming which tier applies to you.
Spend can be split across multiple qualifying purchases of room rate and room charges, and each purchase must post to your account (after any foreign currency conversion) before the offer expires.
What Qualifies
- Participating Marriott Bonvoy properties in the U.S. and U.S. territories, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean
- Reservations made directly through Marriott.com, the Marriott Bonvoy app, or by phone at 1-888-236-2427
- Room rate and room charges only — hotel amenities, gift cards, and Marriott Bonvoy point purchases don’t count
- Bookings made through third-party resellers or online travel agencies don’t qualify; it has to be a direct Marriott reservation
Excluded from the offer: Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, EDITION, The Luxury Collection, W Hotels, JW Marriott, Marriott Vacation Club, Design Hotels, Protea Hotels, Marriott Executive Apartments, Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy, and Vistana properties.
Which Cards Can Get It
This is an Amex Offer, tied to individual accounts rather than a specific card product — it isn’t limited to Marriott’s co-branded cards. Any American Express cardholder can be targeted, though holders of Marriott Bonvoy Bevy or Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant get extra value by stacking the statement credit with their card’s own Marriott earning rate and complimentary elite status (Gold for Bevy, Platinum for Brilliant), which both boost points earned on the same stay.
How to Check and Activate
- Log in to your American Express account (check each card individually — offers are assigned per card, not per person).
- Go to the Amex Offers & Benefits tab.
- Look for the Marriott offer and click “Add to Card” — you must activate it on the card you’ll actually use to pay for the stay.
- Book directly through Marriott.com, the app, or by phone, using the activated card.
If you don’t see it, you weren’t targeted for this round — Amex refreshes Marriott offers fairly often, so it’s worth checking back periodically.
If you’re deciding where to stay and want help comparing properties or redemption options, Marriott’s AI Concierge is open to anyone, no login required, across all Marriott programs — useful for quickly checking which properties near your destination accept this offer before you book.
Bottom Line
If you have an upcoming Marriott stay in a qualifying region, it’s worth checking every Amex card you hold before booking — a $150 credit on $375 of room spend is a real 40% discount, with no catch beyond booking directly and activating the offer first. If you want to stack even more value on the same stay, see our guide to the Marriott free night certificate.
