Founderscard Offers Marriott Platinum Status Challenge
Marriott and Founderscard have teamed up to give FoundersCard Members an awesome opportunity to get Marriott Bonvoy Platinum elite status after only 15 paid nights within 3 months of enrollment. Members will earn Marriott Bonvoy Platinum Elite status for up to one year. Since Platinum Elite status is typically earned by achieving 50 paid stays in a calendar year, this is a pretty great offer. Thee Platinum Challenge offer is available to all Founderscard members who don’t have Marriott Platinum status or higher. Founderscard currently offers Hilton Gold Elite Status and a chance to earn AA Elite Status. Last week I showed you how to complete the AA Challenge inexpensively in Guide: Get Cheap AA Status with Hyatt and Founderscard Promos.
