Finally, a rewards card you’ll want to use

Though there’s no denying it’s nice to get a free coffee at your favourite local because of the many stamps on your loyalty card, it’s not particularly exciting.

What about a rewards card that gives you real experiences?

Instead of getting a free coffee once every two months before rushing to work, imagine drinking an authentic cup of French coffee, peering at the Eiffel tower in the distance, all the while you’re relaxing on your private balcony at the Renaissance Paris Arc de Triomphe Hotel. Imagine getting to do all of this because of points you’ve earned on a rewards card.

Queue in Marriott Rewards, which is already turning 55 million people’s wishful thinking into reality thanks to the amazing benefits they offer those members. Not only does it turn every trip into an investment for the next, but is also extremely easy for all travellers to use. By staying at any of Marriott’s 17 brands, you start collecting points from your first stay onwards. And with over 4,200 hotels and resorts across 87 different countries, it won’t be hard to find your home away from home wherever you may travel to.

Marriott has also partnered up with Hertz and Sixt as well as 40 major airplane carriers, so whether you fly or drive to your next destination, you can start collecting points from start to finish of your journey. Getting rewarded for relaxing – now that’s something we won’t complain about.
