I am looking to change from Amex to another credit card. I am looking for the best option where my use of the credit card will reward me with Continental airline milage and Marriot reward points. We will use these rewards for family trips. We typically pay off our credit cards in full on a monthly basis and put anywhere from $2,000 to $5,000 each month.

Please advise

Answer – Aresh, there are 2 cards that you can possibly. Both are from Chase. They are the Chase Freedom and the Chase Sapphire Card. The reason both cards work is because their reward program, the Ultimate Rewards Program, has partnerships with both Continental Airlines and Marriott. Both cards have no annual fee unlike the Amex charge cards (which also have both Continental and Marriott in the Membership Rewards program).

You can transfer points that you have earned on the card to both Continental OnePass Miles and Marriott Points. Below are screen shots of their program (which you cannot get on their website if you do not have their cards – but I do!!).
