The Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express includes a statement credit of up to $120 toward the Global Entry application fee — covering the full $120 cost. Here's how to redeem it, and — the part nobody tells you — how to actually get the interview appointment afterward.
Marriott's premium co-branded card. Check your card's benefits page for the exact current terms.
As of September 2026, 19 of the 126 Global Entry enrollment centers we monitor list no open interviews at all, and another 2 have nothing within the next two months. After CBP conditionally approves your application, you still need an in-person interview (or Enrollment on Arrival when re-entering the US), and that's where most applicants get stuck.
Cancelled interview slots open up every day — they're just gone within minutes. Haya watches the official CBP scheduler every 5 minutes, around the clock, and alerts you the moment a slot opens at your enrollment center. Email alerts are free; push and SMS alerts for near-term slots are on Pro.

There is no enrollment or activation step: apply at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov, pay the $120 fee with your Bonvoy Brilliant, and the statement credit posts automatically — typically within one or two billing cycles.
Once every four years, which lines up with the five-year membership: the credit is available again before your renewal is due.
Most issuers let the credit apply to either program, but Global Entry is usually the better choice: it costs $120 versus about $78 for PreCheck, includes full TSA PreCheck benefits, and the credit covers it. Check your card's benefits terms for specifics.
