Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a great welcome bonus for the Amex Business Platinum Card and the highest offer we have ever seen. You need to spend $15,000 in the first 3 months to earn the 150,000 points bonus and then another $1,000 with an Employee Card to earn another 10,000 points. That’s a lot of spending, so make sure you are able to complete it before applying. The offer has no lifetime language either from what I see so that is another reason why this offer is great. It means you can get around the lifetime restriction and get a bonus on this card again.
Let me know if you are targeted.
