This isn't THE most exciting of the promos, but it seems like these cards can be used on ANY rate at a Marriott (and affiliated brand) hotel. That would include any other coupons and certificates, like Bonus Bucks. But you couldn't use it on a prepaid rate (except for incidentals), right?

You are correct, the Gift Card cannot be used for a prepaid rate.

Keep in mind that Marriott TravelCards can be used for folio charges other than the room.

I've got a wedding I'm attending in July in NYC - was going to buy this as it's a good deal...the rules state the following:

Quote:
Card cannot be applied to group, special corporate/negotiated, catering, associate, or other discounted/non-commissionable rates.
I'm staying at a group rate, so it's not really eligible on *any* rate...

Anyone have any experience otherwise?

No. The Marriott deal is a fixed-price deal. Use any card. Auction items require use of Amex. Good luck.

Just checked with MR. This card is not eligible for use with the MOD discount code. The rep said it wouldn't be able to be used with any discount code. I'm not sure of the accuracy of his statement as the Gift Cards are able to be used with the MOD discount.

Interesting. If this technique does work, it certainly increases the value of purchasing the gift cards today.

Can Giftcard/Vacation card be used for online pre payment?

There is a disturbing trend with Marriott where terms for such things are presented ambiguously. This is a gift card that is suppose to be treated like cash:
