The monthly credits are the ones people lose

$25 Monthly Dining Credit is capped per month. An unused month does not roll forward, so the annual figure the card is marketed on assumes you spend at those specific merchants every single month. Most people do not, which is the single biggest gap between a premium card's advertised credit value and what it is worth to you.

Questions people ask

When do the Amex Marriott Brilliant credits reset?

All 2 reset on your cardmember year — that is, your account anniversary date, not 1 January.

Which Amex Marriott Brilliant credits require enrolment?

None of the 2 credits we track on this card require enrolment.

How much are the Amex Marriott Brilliant credits worth in total?

$400 a year at face value, against a $650 annual fee. That is the sum of the caps, not what a typical cardholder captures — 1 of them are monthly and expire unused each month, and each is restricted to specific merchants.
