Marriott Bonvoy Moments

Marriott Bonvoy Moments (moments.marriottbonvoy.com) is the largest experience marketplace PointAuctions.com tracks, and it runs three formats side by side: points auctions for the marquee lots, fixed-price experiences you redeem outright, and the recurring 1-Point Drops promotion, where a limited batch of experiences is released for a single Bonvoy point each and claimed first-come, first-served. In our data the auction and fixed-price sides are roughly the same size, so neither tells the whole story alone.

Auctions use proxy bidding: you enter a maximum and the platform bids in 2,500-point increments on your behalf, only as high as it needs to stay in front. Bids are final and cannot be withdrawn, most auctions run 15 to 30 days, and points are deducted only when you win - though your balance must cover your bid for the whole auction. Some lots are reserved for holders of specific Marriott Bonvoy credit cards, so check the eligibility line before bidding.

Marriott does not publish an anti-snipe rule, but bidders consistently report that a late bid extends the close by roughly five minutes, so last-second sniping tends to backfire. PointAuctions.com tracks every live Moments lot in one place and keeps a closing-price archive, with winning bids verified after close wherever Marriott's post-auction data allows.
