** On or before May 30th, 2018** - ALL Chase Marriott cardholders that held the card as of March 15th, 2018, will receive:
  • 1 Night Stay Certificate for a Category 1-5 Marriott Hotel
  • 15 Night Stay Credit towards elite status

** CHASE HAS CLOSED ACCOUNTS AS OF MARCH 15, 2018 **

By now you should have been notified that your Marriott Rewards® Visa® Credit Card will be closing on March 15, 2018. Here's what you need to know:

• CONTINUE EARNING.
You will still be able to continue to use your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card and earn points on eligible purchases through March 14, 2018. After that date, you will no longer be able to make purchases or earn points on your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card.

• USE YOUR POINTS.
This does not impact your Marriott Rewards account. You will still be able to access and use any points and benefits that you have earned.

If you have paid an annual fee for your card any time between April 2017 and December 2017, Chase Canada has said that they will give you a prorated rebate of the fee back as a statement credit on your account.


If, however, your annual renewal fee is due between January 2018 and March 2018, you will NOT have to pay it. You may continue to use your card until March 15, 2018

As a cardholder, you will still receive your 15 Elite Night Credits and Free Night Certificate, regardless of your anniversary date. They will be deposited into your Marriott Rewards account after March 14, 2018.


Existing Chase Marriott Visa cardholders will be given a special signup to the Amex SPG CC for 25,000 welcome points and $120/yr annual fee.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Information below is left here for reference only, so that others who applied before the deadline can refer to the info.

If you find a working application link buried in this thread and apply through it don't be surprised if you do not get the advertised welcome bonuses.

Tips:
  • Go to marriott.com and apply for a Marriott Rewards account first, and have the member/account number ready during application. If you did NOT do this then Chase will create an account for you - look for the numbers on the lower left of your new Visa card, it may be displayed there.
  • Spend at least $1 on your new card by the 9th of the month, so that the txn posts by the 11th onto your online account at Chase (https://online.chasecanada.ca).
  • Seemingly, all Canadian Chase Marriott Visa accounts cycle on the 11th of the month. Points are posted by Chase to Marriott.com and the 50K points will appear by the 18th or 19th of the month.
  • You will see the points posted on page 3 of your paper statement when it arrives in the postal mail. Chase does not provide Canadians with an online PDF statement, only transactions. If by the 19th you don't see points posted, double-check the Marriott Rewards number on your paper statement to ensure it matches your true account number, in case Chase messed up and created a new MR account on your behalf.
  • When setting up payment for the card at online banking, look for "MARRIOTT VISA" as the card name.
  • If using this card outside of Canada, ensure you prime the PIN onto the card at a CHIP/PIN terminal while IN Canada, before you leave for your trip. You cannot prime the card while in Europe (for eg.)
  • YMMV, but if you decide to cancel this card, it is advisable to do it WELL before the anniversary date, as Chase may not pro-rate a refund.
  • If you plan to use this card outside of Canada (no FX fees), you should call Chase to let them know, so your card won't get locked. I've never called when using it on extended travel in the US, but for sure I would call and let them know if I was going to use it elsewhere (Europe, Asia, Antarctica).
  • If you log out of MARRIOTT.COM and notice an 80,000 point offer, it is a USA-only offer.
  • You can find List of Marriott Hotels and their Categories via below searches

Does anyone know how to use the gift certificate you get with the card?

MR Visa CA Free Night Award, category 1-4 hotel

I have that on marriott.com but I don't know how to use it...

Book a category 1 to 4 hotel as normal, on the payment screen it'll ask if you'd like to use points or the certificate

Go ahead and book with points (e.g. 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 points, etc).

On the final screen you will have options.

1) Book with certificate
2) Book with points
3) etc.

Only on the final screen can you select to use your certificate.

I cancelled my last Marriott card back in March. Is it "safe" to re-apply? I have a few new cards I want to sign up for...but want to do this one first, as Chase looks at apps pretty closely. My last app was in November. And a total of 2 in the last 6 months.

I got the Marriott Visa again recently after a not-too-long wait... I can't remember exactly how long I waited but the gap was about 8 months IIRC. Basically 6 months with a little buffer just to make sure

Your time since last holding card should be fine. we got declined last year in a quick turn around (3 months since canceling previous MR), but was approved after trying again in 3 more months (6+ in total).

we also make sure no apps or hard hits in 91 days before a chase app.

Thanks Cerenity. I should be good on the 6 months, not sure about the three months.

I know this card doesn't have flight interruption/cancellafion insurance, but what about car rental insurance coverage?

It has primary car rental insurance to go along with double Marriott points for travel purchase benefit. Definitely worth while.

Did you get the bonus 30k/50k when you re-applied or is this card subject to the one time bonus per lifetime that Amex enforces on their cards? Trying to confirm if Chase has the same policy.

Yes, got the 50K again. That was my third go.

Does anyone know if I need to close an existing account before I can apply and get approved for another one?
I currently have this card and want to apply for another one for the 50k bonus, but I am not sure if Chase will approve it if I already have one open.

Are people getting the 5X points to post at Marriott/Starwood properties with this card? I just completed some Starwood stays in Europe paid for with this card and they all posted with 2X points. Is it worth the fight to try and get them credited properly?

In my experience, it is posted as a separate bonus type, it's not included in the total stay. I got mine and it says MR VISA CANADA-5 PTS FOR SPEND. Perhaps wait for the current billing cycle to post and then call Chase on the next cycle if you still haven't received it.
