For the recent Amex Marriott Business card with the extra 10000 points offer during initial 6 months, did anyone get data points on travel related charges in foreign spent? The terms on website below did not specify in currency yet the charges for hotel and air ticket in non CAD did not result in the bonus spend.
Points Offer on Eligible Gas, Travel & Dining
You can earn 2 additional Marriott Bonvoy points for every $1 spent (i) at stand-alone automobile gasoline stations in Canada; (ii) restaurants, quick service restaurants, coffee shops and drinking establishments in Canada; and (iii) for travel services or travel bookings including air, water, rail and road transport, but not including local and commuter transportation. You can earn up to a maximum of 10,000 points in the first six months of Cardmembership. This is an additional 2 points for every $1 on top of the standard earn rate of 3 points, for a total of 5 points. Once the combined maximum is reached or after six months of Cardmembership, whichever comes first, you will no longer earn a total of 5 bonus points for every $1 spent on these categories, rather you will continue to earn at the standard earn rate, which is 3 points for every $1 spent on these categories. Supplementary Card purchases count towards the 10,000 points threshold.
