Your Marriott Bonvoy points did not show up on your account? No problem, you can claim missing points by following the steps we will feature below.
If you booked your Marriott stay through a third-party website than you will are not eligible to the points. Third-party websites include Expedia, Hotels.ca, Booking.com and others.
You have to book direct with Marriott in order to get your points and bonus points. But there is one exception.
The only third party site that would allow you to earn points would be American Express’ SAP Concur site. It caters to corporate travel and is the only exception to earning points with a third-party booking.

Go to Marriott Bonvoy and click on the Sign in or Join link in the top right hand side of the page.
A pop-up will appear. Enter your email or Member Number then your password. If you forgot your password you can click of the Forgot password link and create a new one.
Step 2 – Click the drop-down list

Conclusion
Don’t let any point escape you. Always make sure you claim your points if you forgot to add your membership number. Although your supposed to be logged in every time you book, particularly on the app.
Marriott Bonvoy, like all other major programs, has its fortes and weaknesses. Making the most of its sweet spots is definitely a great return on your account balance.
I stay 3 nights at Sheraton Petaling Days, from 13/3/2022-16/3/2022. But, I saw Bonvey only record for 1 night. Please check. I wanted to attach the receipt here in jpg format from hotel but unsuccessful. Can you send me the email and I will send the receipt thru email for you to check. Or you can directly ask from hotel. Thanks.
If you follow the steps then you should get all points credited on 3 nights. If that doesnt work, reach out to the hotel and ask them for help.
I have tried everything possible to try to get the paperwork I have, about a missing stay, to Marriott and cannot! When I clicked on missing stays while using the Bonvoy app, it just circles! It never connects!
Hi Patrice,
You can only claim Marriott Bonvoy points on web site. You cannot do it on app.
