A surge of opportunity opened for travelers this November, a chance to transform everyday commutes into a windfall of rewards. For a limited time, a simple connection between two popular services could unlock a substantial boost to your travel fund and even a life-changing prize.
Between November 10th and November 24th, linking your Marriott Bonvoy and Uber accounts became the key to unlocking a world of possibilities. Qualifying Premium rides weren’t just about getting from point A to point B; they were entries into a sweepstakes with a truly remarkable grand prize.
Imagine receiving a notification that you’ve won one million Marriott points – a treasure trove valued at $7,000. This wasn’t a distant dream, but a real possibility for three lucky members who took advantage of this exclusive promotion.
Even without the grand prize, every linked account and qualifying ride automatically earned 1,000 bonus Marriott points. These points, valued at $7, represented an immediate return, a tangible reward for a seamless travel experience.
The definition of a “Premium” ride was specific: Uber Black, Uber XL, Uber SUV, and Uber Comfort rides within the United States. This focused approach ensured that the reward was tied to a higher level of service and comfort, enhancing the overall experience.
The rules were straightforward. Only those who hadn’t previously linked their accounts were eligible, and multiple Premium rides only granted a single entry into the contest. This ensured fairness and encouraged widespread participation.
Beyond the promotion, linking accounts unlocked ongoing benefits. Every dollar spent on eligible Uber rides translated into valuable Marriott points – three points per dollar on Uber XL, Black, SUV, and Comfort, and two points on Reserve rides.
The rewards extended to food delivery and grocery orders as well, with one point earned per dollar spent through Uber Eats. This meant that even everyday essentials could contribute to your travel goals.
For those already invested in the Uber ecosystem, an additional perk awaited. Uber One annual members automatically received Marriott Silver Elite status, unlocking a new tier of benefits and privileges.
Winners were notified around December 4th, leaving a period of anticipation and excitement. This limited-time offer presented a unique opportunity to elevate travel experiences and potentially unlock a substantial reward.
