The article discusses two targeted travel offers for bookings at Marriott’s Renaissance and TownePlace Suites brands. These offers are available to holders of select Chase credit cards and provide up to 10% cash back on stays at these properties.
The Renaissance offer requires a minimum spend of $100 and offers a maximum rebate of $75. The TownePlace Suites offer also requires a minimum spend of $100 and offers a maximum rebate of $63. Both offers are valid for one-time use and require complete payment by specific dates.
While these offers may not be particularly spectacular, they provide an opportunity for cardholders to earn a rebate on their stays. With the low minimum spending limit, most people with stays at Renaissance and/or TownePlace Suites should be able to take advantage of these offers.
It is worth noting that these offers are not widely targeted to a variety of Chase credit cards. Ideally, they will be targeted to one or more of the Chase Marriott co-branded cards. This means there may not be scope to use these offers multiple times by adding them to different cards.
The author mentions that they can only see these offers targeted to the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card. While this is good for earning 2 Ultimate Rewards points per dollar on Marriott spending, it would have been nice to have these offers on a few other cards to maximize the savings.
In conclusion, Chase is targeting select cardholders for savings on Renaissance and TownePlace Suites bookings. While the rebates are capped, cardholders may be able to maximize these offers if targeted to multiple cards. These offers provide an opportunity for cardholders to earn a rebate on their stays at these Marriott properties.
