Update 9/4/20 from Nick: Chase has sent an email indicating that this offer has been extended to 9/30/20. You still must activate by September 15, 2020 – so don’t forget to do that.
Update 8/11/20 from Nick: Many people have been unable to register for these bonuses, but we received a report today in Frequent Miler Insiders that the following link is working for registration: chase.com/mybonus. I have personally been trying to register since this promotion began and have been regularly trying both that link and the one within this post with no success as recently as this past weekend. However, today I was suddenly able to register all of my cards. We’ve since had further success reported in Frequent Miler Insiders. If you were previously unable to register, it’s worth trying that link today.
Original post follows.

Quick Thoughts
Note that unlike the recent 3x/5x grocery bonuses on many Chase credit cards where the bonus points were earned automatically, you have to register for this promotion. Chase announced this promotion a week or two ago, but Greg, Nick and I haven’t had any success registering any of our Marriott or Ritz-Carlton credit cards since then. This isn’t a targeted offer – all primary cardholders with accounts in good standing are eligible to register for this offer, so there seems to be some kind of issue on Chase’s end. They’re aware of this problem and advised us that it had been fixed, but we’re still unable to register.
Chase has assured us that you can register any time up to September 15 and you’ll earn bonus points retroactively on any eligible spend since July 15, so if you have the same issues registering right now, you should be fine using your Chase Marriott cards at restaurants and gas stations from today provided you remember to register by September 15. We believe Chase is still working on the registration issue, so we’ll repost this post once it’s fixed to remind you to try registering again.
In terms of the offer itself, 10x points at gas stations and restaurants is a great offer and means my Chase Marriott cards won’t be leaving my wallet once they stop earning 6x at grocery stores at the end of this month. The restaurants category also includes food delivery like Grubhub and DoorDash, so it’s not only restaurant-specific purchases which are eligible.
The spending limit is $3,500 per card, so if you have more than one eligible card for this offer, you can spend $3,500 at eligible locations on each card to earn 10x. That won’t be applicable for many people, but if you have 7-Eleven stores that code as gas or Speedway gas stations near you, spending $3,500 per card might be more easily achievable.
If you wouldn’t normally use Chase Marriott cards for dining spend, be sure to link those cards in apps like Dosh and also airline or hotel dining programs to make sure you don’t miss out on earning additional cashback and/or bonus points and miles.

Finally able to register my Ritz card today (9/7/2020) – Wish this had triggered earlier and I would have moved more spend.
Have the Boundless card, but still no luck registering. “ The offer you are attempting to access is not available for the card account you entered.”
When did you get the card?
Is it new?
I think cards opened after promo started aren’t getting targeted… Anyways that’s my theory
I think you’re right. I opened Boundless shortly after the promo started and haven’t been able to activate it through the link, SM or call.
[…] While not necessarily the deal of the week, I also wanted to highlight in this post that the Chase Marriott promotion for 10x at restaurants and gas stations is now working for registration for those of us who were previously unable to do so.

You mentioned Speedway as a good option to rack up the $3500 in spending. How do you accomplish this at Speedway?
They sell all kinds of gift cards and don’t have any problem accepting credit cards as payment. Their Speedy Rewards program also offers 20 points per dollar when buying third party gift cards, so that can be worth 1.5-2% back depending on how you redeem the points.
Using the new link, my business card registration work, my wife’s personal worked while her business didn’t.
I got a Marriott Boundless card 2 weeks ago. The link didn’t work for me at that time. I sent a secure message to Chase and they said I was not targeted. Tried the link just now and still could not register. Maybe because it’s a new account?
Still a no for me
Same here
Have you managed to get this offer attached yet? No luck for me on my Marriot Boundless.
I haven’t been able to register any of my cards yet. We’ve reached back out to Chase to see if there’s any progress their end.
Have you received an update from Chase since you reached back out? Still not able to activate the offer on my Boundless.
We’re still trying to get clarification as to what’s going on. They’re making it sound like it’s only isolated incidences, but when we polled the Frequent Miler Insiders group recently, ~45% of people had been unable to register.
Sounds good, thanks for the reply. I’ll keep spending for those categories on this card since it should be retroactive.
Seems like this may be a targeted promo after all. Or Chase still hasn’t rolled it out properly. This is what I received in response to my SM: The offer you are attempting to enroll is not available for the card. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause you.
It might be worth giving Chase a call to double check the address on your account. When logging in to my wife’s account online, it showed our correct address, but she wasn’t able to register for the offer. When calling Chase, apparently they had our old address showing on this one card even though that wasn’t being displayed online for some reason.
My Bus Premier Plus card would not work, FYI. My personal Boundless went fine.
Registered Boundless, Premier Plus Business. Issue with RC
I just signed up from the link on this post. First it redirected me. I entered the information again and was accepted. I used the business card.
No go here on my Ritz card.
