Our Verdict

This card used to be called the Chase Marriott Premier Plus card. We’ve seen this 100k offer when it was called that and also under the new boundless name as well. I don’t think this is a particularly amazing offer as Marriott points aren’t that valuable, I also think we will eventually see a higher offer on this card. That being said if you have a specific redemption in mind then signing up would make sense. Keep in mind most people won’t be eligible due to the 5/24 rule and from having previous Marriott/SPG cards (see above under card details). I won’t be adding this to the best credit card bonuses. If you’re thinking about applying read these things everybody should know about Chase first.
