5 points per dollar for eligible food purchases
American Express Canada continues to take care of its Cardmembers.
After a great offer to its Platinum Cardmembers, and another exciting offer to American Express Cobalt™ Cardmembers, American Express is now taking care of its Marriott Bonvoy™ American Express® Cardmembers.
From May 15 to August 31, 2020, Marriott Bonvoy Credit Cardmembers can enjoy some temporary earning rates increases, up to a limit of 30,000 points over the period (or $10,000 in eligible credit card purchases):
Category | Earning rate |
Groceries | 5 points per dollar |
Food delivery | 5 points per dollar |
Takeout | 5 points per dollar |
Marriott Bonvoy Credit Cardmembers still earn
- 5 points per dollar in Card purchases at Marriott Bonvoy properties
- 2 points per dollar in all other Card purchases

This is a great offer for Marriott Bonvoy™ American Express® Cardmembers.
However, if you also have the American Express Cobalt™ Card in your wallet – and want to earn Marriott Bonvoy points – this Card will be even more worthwhile.
Indeed, you earn the equivalent of 6 Marriott Bonvoy points per dollar for these same purchase categories. This is the best credit card to use for groceries.
