Our Verdict
We’ve seen this offer on business and personal cards before, normally it’s offered when your annual fee will become due during the offer period. This would mean you’d earn 2x SPG points per $1 spent if you spend $5,000, if you spent this before December 31st, 2016 you’d also get an extra point on Small Business purchases.
Keep in mind you can also transfer SPG points to Marriott at a rate of 1:3 now as well. Here are some ideas on what do you with your SPG and Marriott points.
