I’m trying to buy Marriott points and wonder if I will get the rebate with this card. From the Marriott site:

**UnionPay Terms
  • In order to receive the 10% UnionPay discount, you must purchase 2,000 or more Points with a UnionPay credit card (starting with 62).
  • Beginning at 9:00 a.m. EST November 4, 2021, for a limited time, purchases of 2,000 or more Marriott Bonvoy Points made with a UnionPay credit card with card number starting with 62 are eligible for a 10% discount.
  • This is a limited-time offer subject to promotional availability on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • UnionPay Cardholders can receive a 10% discount (up to US$62 per transaction) issued to your card account for eligible Points purchases charged to your UnionPay credit card. A maximum of five individual transactions with a combined total discount of US$310 per cardholder is permitted during the promotion period.
  • The UnionPay 10% discount can be combined with other eligible Points Purchase promotions.
  • The 10% discount will be applied after a purchase is completed. If a registered UnionPay card is used, the final billed amount will reflect the 10% discount on your card statement.
  • Members who elect to purchase Marriott Bonvoy Points using their UnionPay single-logo credit cards (with card number starting with digits 62) can do so by choosing Discover/UnionPay as their payment option.
  • Promotion is subject to UnionPay Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
  • The offer is made by a US entity for a global point program and purchase can only be made in USD out of China. Shanghai Gingerroot Hotel Management Co., Ltd., or any Marriott Chinese entity has nothing to do with the offer. UnionPay Cardholders can redeem their Marriott Bonvoy Points at all hotels worldwide that participate in Marriott Bonvoy.

I don’t have my card right now (will have it tomorrow) so can’t confirm
  • Does this card start in 62
  • What is a UnionPay single-logo card and is this card one of them
  • $62 max discount means 50,000 points + 50% bonus maxes out this discount for one transaction but you can do it 5 times per card. However you can only purchase or receive 100,000 points per account per year
