Why choose Marriott Bonvoy
1.
The annual fee is the real comparison, not the earn rate
None of the three waives its fee on spend, so each one costs the same every year it stays open. Weigh the fee against what the card hands back for renewing — a Free Night Award or a points credit — before comparing earn rates at all.
2.
Elite status arrives on approval, not after a stay
Both Infinite-tier cards carry Gold Elite from approval; the Signature starts at Silver with a pathway to Gold at USD 15,000 of annual card spend. Status drives room upgrades, late checkout and a points bonus on every paid stay, independent of card spend.
3.
Points are worth roughly double as nights, not cash
A Bonvoy point returns about AED 0.0275 redeemed for a free night against roughly AED 0.015 cashed out. If you don't stay at Marriott-family properties, the earn rates on this page overstate what the card is worth to you.
