 TITLE: Marriott’s New Rewards Program: What You Need to Know CONTENT: How to Earn Marriott Bonvoy Points\n----------------------------------\nIf you were already a fan of the Marriott Rewards program and you're unsure how the new Bonvoy program will work, don't worry. Bonvoy is largely just a rebranding of the old Marriott Rewards program, and you'll still earn points the way you did previously. For example, you earn 10 points per dollar spent on eligible hotel charges, with the exception of three brands: At Element, Residence Inn and TownePlace Suites hotels, you'll only earn five points per eligible dollar spent.\nAnd as you'll see below in greater detail, you can also earn points through Marriott's co-branded credit cards, which now carry the Bonvoy brand. Other ways to earn Marriott Bonvoy points include hosting meetings and events and participating in the Rewarding Events program. You can also earn points with travel partners such as Hertz and CruisesOnly. END
