Our take
The Bevy slots between Marriott's $95 Boundless and $650 Brilliant, pairing a $250 fee with Gold Elite status, 6x at Marriott, and an unusually strong 4x on dining and U.S. supermarkets (up to $15,000/yr). Its weak spot is the annual Free Night Award: you have to spend $15,000 in a year to earn it, where the cheaper Boundless includes a renewal free night with no spend hurdle. Get the Bevy for the high signup bonus and bonus categories if you put real everyday spend on it; if the certificate is what you want, Boundless is the easier value.
