ALL good things don’t necessarily come only to those who wait: Marriott Rewards – Marriott International’s award-winning loyalty programme – has introduced FlashPerks, a new way for next generation travellers to enjoy immediate awards and instant gratification. Marriott Rewards members can take advantage of time sensitive offers from Marriott’s global portfolio of brands and its partners. From July 17 onwards, members have been able to choose from a variety of experiences via “push” messaging to their mobile devices or through the FlashPerks site.
FlashPerks, an additional member benefit, gives members the option to redeem points or use cash for limited-time, exclusive deals and experiences by visiting https://www.marriottrewardsflashperks.com/. Upcoming FlashPerks include member-only special offers for a stay at the world’s tallest hotel, JW Marriott Marquis Dubai, or the chance for a two-day test drive of an exotic car, such as an Aston Martin, Lamborghini or Porsche from Hertz Dream Cars. FlashPerks follows the launch of PlusPoints in May 2014 that enables members to earn Rewards points through everyday social behaviours, such as tweets, retweets, check in on Facebook and Instagram posts. Marriott Rewards members enrolled in PlusPoints receive 25 points each time they share content about Marriott Rewards or participating hotels using the hashtag #MRPoints. Members can earn points daily and see them accumulate in real time.
