About this card
Considering the individual ratings and the card's overall value proposition, I assign an overall rating of 3.1 out of 5. The Marriott Bonvoy Bold card is a reasonable choice for individuals seeking a no-annual-fee hotel rewards card, particularly those with some loyalty to the Marriott Bonvoy program. Its greatest strength lies in the absence of an annual fee coupled with automatic Silver Elite status. The rewards program offers decent value, especially for Marriott stays and purchases in the bonus categories. However, the high APR range is a significant drawback. Strengths: * No annual fee * Automatic Silver Elite status * Decent sign-up bonus * Rewards on hotel, grocery, rideshare, streaming purchases * No foreign transaction fees Weaknesses: * High regular APR * Requires good or excellent credit * Limited rewards categories * Lower rewards rate than cards with annual fees
