    Common questions

    Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, JetBlue Card or Marriott Bonvoy Boundless?
    The Marriott Bonvoy Boundless has a public bonus (4 Free Night Awards, worth roughly $980), while the JetBlue Card doesn't advertise one right now.
    Is the JetBlue Card's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless?
    The JetBlue Card has no annual fee, so the question is whether the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless's $95 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless's benefits to clear $95 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the JetBlue Card.
    Can I have both the JetBlue Card and Marriott Bonvoy Boundless?
    Yes, since they're from different issuers (Barclays and Chase) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
    Should I get the JetBlue Card or the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless first?
    Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. JetBlue Card: no published min spend. Marriott Bonvoy Boundless: $3,000 in 3 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
