| 3 Free Night Awards |
| You can earn three bonus Free Night Awards from Marriott Bonvoy after you use your Marriott Bonvoy Business® American Express® Card to complete $6,000 (the “Threshold Amount”) of eligible purchases within the first 6 months of Card Membership, starting from the date your account is opened. In rare instances, your period to spend $6,000 may be shorter than 6 months if there is a delay in receiving your Card. Also, purchases may fall outside of the 6 month period in some cases, such as a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction. (For example, if you buy goods online, the purchase date may be the date the goods are shipped). Eligible purchases to meet the Threshold Amount can be made by the Basic Card Member and any Additional Card Members on a single Card account. Eligible purchases are purchases for goods and services minus returns and other credits. Eligible purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, purchases of gift cards, person-to-person payments, or purchases of other cash equivalents. Additional Card Members on your account are not eligible for this offer. To earn three bonus Free Night Awards, your Card account must not be canceled or past due at the time of fulfillment. |
| Each bonus Free Night Award can be redeemed for a one-night stay inclusive of room rate and applicable taxes at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels with a redemption level at or under 50,000 Marriott Bonvoy points. Please visit redeem.marriottbonvoy.com/hotels to find participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels. The Card Member may be responsible for payment of additional mandatory resort fees at properties where resort fees are applicable, and is responsible for all incidental charges. |
| The bonus Free Night Awards will be automatically deposited into your Marriott Bonvoy member account within 8-12 weeks after you reach the Threshold Amount in the form of an e-certificate. You will receive an email from Marriott Bonvoy to the email address listed on your Marriott Bonvoy member account confirming that the bonus Free Night Award e-certificates have been deposited into your Marriott Bonvoy member account. The email will also provide instructions on how to redeem your bonus Free Night Award e-certificates. To redeem the bonus Free Night Award e-certificates, you must log into your Marriott Bonvoy member account and apply the e-certificate during booking. The bonus Free Night Award e-certificates will expire after 1 year from issuance. E-certificates may not be transferred, extended beyond the expiration date, or re-credited for points. American Express is not responsible for fulfillment of Free Night Award e-certificate redemptions. Redemptions are subject to the terms and conditions of Marriott Bonvoy, available at https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/terms/default.mi. |
| If we determine that you have engaged in abuse, misuse, or gaming in connection with this offer in any way or that you intend to do so, including if you return purchases you made to meet the Threshold Amount, we may not credit, we may freeze, or we may take away the Free Night Awards from your account. We may also cancel any accounts you have with us. This offer is not transferable. American Express reserves the right to modify or revoke offer at any time. |

Here’s how: |
- As a Marriott Bonvoy member (even without the Card), you have access to Member Rates, which offers a discount of 2%-5% off the Standard Flexible Room Rate.
- In addition, as a Card Member, you can select the Amex Business Card Rate to get an additional discount which will add up to a total of 7% off the Standard Flexible Room Rate. See Marriott Bonvoy Loyalty Program Terms and Conditions for more information about Member Rates.
|
| “Standard Flexible Room Rate” means the publicly available retail rate offered by Participating Properties at the time of booking to individual guests who are not Marriott Bonvoy members. “Eligible Rooms” include standard guest rooms and not Premium Rooms (Premium Rooms are upgraded rooms based on size, view, services, and/or other attributes, and include suites). “Participating Properties” includes hotels which participate in the Marriott Bonvoy program, excluding stays at Design Hotels™, Marriott Executive Apartments®, Marriott Vacation Club®, Marriott Grand Residence Club®, Vistana Signature Network™, Vistana Residence Network, The Ritz-Carlton Destination Club®, All-Inclusive by Marriott Bonvoy®, and Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy®. |

Card Members can use their Marriott Bonvoy Business® American Express® Card to pay their bill upon checkout. Amex Business Card Rate reservations must be made via Marriott.com, the Marriott mobile app, or by contacting a Marriott worldwide telephone reservation center (“Eligible Channels”). When a Card Member books a reservation on Eligible Channels for the Amex Business Card Rate, they are still eligible to earn Marriott Bonvoy points as they usually do on their stay at Participating Properties. If a Card Member books their reservation online, they must be logged into their Marriott Bonvoy account linked to their Card account in order to be eligible for the Amex Business Card Rate. If a Card Member books their reservation by phone, they must reference the Amex Business Card Rate. |

| Merchants are assigned codes based on what they primarily sell. We group certain merchant codes into categories that are eligible for additional Points. A purchase with a merchant will not receive additional Points if the merchant’s code is not included in a reward category. You may not receive additional Points if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as eligible for a reward category. For example, you may not receive additional Points when: a merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or a merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet.
