🚨 You could earn as many points from a single welcome offer as you normally would from opening 2–3 cards.

The Wild Amex Offers:

Here’s What You Should Know

I’ve never seen an offer THIS HIGH. The The Business Platinum Card® from American Express and American Express® Business Gold Card are currently having record breaking elevated offers. Here’s what you actually need to know:

➡️ You can hold both of these cards at the same time

➡️ The order you apply for Amex business cards does not matter

➡️ You can apply for the card, see if you’re accepted, see what offer you are given, choose to accept ALL BEFORE your credit is checked.

➡️ Had this card before? Amex typically has what we call a “once-in-a-lifetime” language. The good news: you can still apply and check if you’re eligible for the bonus with no credit impact, so there’s no downside to seeing where you stand.

➡️ These business cards DO NOT count against 5/24

The key with these cards is timing – you want to apply when the welcome offers are at their absolute best, like right now.

Why These Points are a Big Deal

When you transfer Membership Rewards® Points to travel partners, you will get incredible value for your points. You can use these points to book economy or business class flights and $0 hotel stays. There are a LOT of travel partners, but these are some of my favorite to mention:

➡️ These points transfer to Delta, Hilton, Marriott, Air France and more. I’ve flown my family of 5 to Europe multiple times on Air France for around 200k points round-trip each time.

➡️ These points transfer to Hilton at a 1:2 ratio. This means that 200k points turn into 400k points when transferred. Transfer the points during a transfer bonus for even better value.

➡️ Link your card to Rakuten and earn Membership Rewards® Points instead of cash back! (use that link for an extra points/cash back when you sign up!)

Final Takeaways

I signed up for one of these cards 2 weeks ago with no elevated welcome offer. So that’s not ideal.

These cards have bigger annual fees. I don’t typically recommend BIG FEE cards to beginners, because you have so many other options, however, I understand wanting to jump in two feet first! For me, these are absolutely worth holding for at least a year. The elevated welcome offer alone more than offsets the annual fee, and if you take advantage of the built-in perks, the value gets even better.

While I can’t get either of these cards because I’ve got them both, YOU can grab them without FOMO of not getting the best offer possible – because this is the highest public offer we have ever seen!

I’m excited for all the points you can earn from one welcome offer! Let me know if you grab one, and as always, thank you for supporting my little business by using my links if you choose to apply!

Not ready for these wild Amex offers? Here are some other great ones, right now:
