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.

I don't know............this seems too good to be true.
My 2017 anniversary date was November 11th. So I paid my $120 AF, got my free night cert, and my 15 days.
So - post March 15th, they're going to give me an ~$80 pro-rated refund, ANOTHER free night cert, and ANOTHER 15 days for 2018? Hmmmm.....
Something tells me I'll have to scratch and crawl to get all that....they're not just going to dish it out on a silver platter...

I called chase and the first agent said that they transferred the points as usual on the 11th and it must be the Marriott rewards that have problems. After several more calls to both ends, finally the rep said there is an issue with the transfer process and to be patient. It will all work out. As far as I know it might have been the same agent recognizing my voice in order and to pacify my concern stated the obvious.

The Amex signup page is now up. 120$ annual fee is enforced and 50$ for Supp. card applicants. The rest is as advertised previously on this thread.

Is there a good reason for a Marriott Visa cardholder to sign up for this offer, versus the standard referral offer for SPG Amex or SPG Business Amex?

I paid my fee in December and got my letter yesterday, does look like we are getting the additional cert and the pro-rated fee back. I read this in a rush, I didn't see that we were getting the 15 days, would be nice. I'll have trouble reaching Plat this year without the night credits.

any other options for the 15 elite night credits
The annual 15 elite night credits through the Marriott Visa card was most helpful in maintaining my platinum status. My renewal date is Oct. and I did get 15 nights last year. Any idea if I will get 15 nights again when the CC is closed in March?
Also, any one found any other CC which might offer elite night credits!!
I guess another option would be hold a meeting under 'rewarding events' to get 10-20 nights but there are no reasonable options for this in my home town of Ottawa, Canada.

Only credit card with night credits for Marriott going forward is probably the US version. Unless they release a new card in Canada, we're out of luck.

It appears that the Amex SPG card will have the FX conversion fee. This will be a feature that I shall miss on the old JPMC Canadian Marriott Visa.

Amex Canada will be coming out with a new Marriott Rewards card (once the programs merge) and the SPG Amex will also go away.
In the US both Chase and Amex will issue the new cards.
