I am not sure about Harborside. I know for SVV, this is the first year is has triggered the 6X multiplier on the Chase Bonvoy Visa.

That's a good news. Now I can cancel my Amex Marriott card to free up a slot for Amex Hilton Aspire card.

I should've charged a little bit on it last year to see, but had a brain fart...: (
only tried for SVV and WLR for some reason...

Please understand that just because the Harborside MF triggered the "travel" bonus for the Chase Sapphire does not mean the MF will trigger the 5X-6X Bonvoy Point bonus on the Chase Marriott Visa card. The coding requirements for the merchants are different for the two bonuses.

Yep, understood. Most of the MF payment is not triggering my usbank AR cards travel category, so that’s out for sure...

I was wondering what was the merchant listed on your marriott rewards cc statement as neither key west or bella hoa have any of the marriott chain names in them? I thought the charge had to include the name of one of the resorts worldwide in order to get 6x marriott points per $1. Thanks for letting me know in advance

It seems that Chase has updated the payees that they include with the multiplier and no longer look for the name of one of the Marriott brands.

Chase has never actually "looked" for the name of one of the Marriott brands. The trigger for the bonus is embedded in the specific merchant code assigned the property.
