Amex Business Platinum 200K Offer with No Lifetime Language
American Express has been offering massive welcome bonuses in recent years. Some people are able to pull up a 250,000 points bonus for The Business Platinum Cardยฎ from American Express for example. There’s also a 200,000 points offer for the same card which is available by phone. But now many people are targeted for a 200K bonus online, and the offer has no lifetime language. These NLL offers had been drying up recently, so it’s good to see that a new wave is going out.
Welcome Bonus
- Earn 200,000 Membership Rewardsยฎ points after you spend $15,000 or more on eligible purchases on your Business Platinum Cardยฎ from American Express within your first 3 months of Card Membership starting from the date your account is approved.
- Annual Fee: $695
How to Find This Offer?
This is a targeted offer that is showing up for many people. Sadly, I don’t have a link where you can check.
You can normally find it online in your American Express account, in the Amex Offers section. It could also be worth checking the Amex app as sometimes wee see it showing up there, and not on desktop.
American Express often send these same offers by email, so take a look at your inbox. And last but not least, also keep eye on your mail.
Eligibility
In order to be eligible for this offer, you must first be targeted through on the avenues described above. Once targeted, then you should be able to apply, regardless of when or if you ever had The Business Platinum Cardยฎ from American Express in the past.
American Express normally has a lifetime restriction for signup bonuses, which covers the last 5-7 years. But this 200K Business Platinum offer has no such lifetime language (often referred to as a NLL offer). With that said, it’s always a good idea to check your own offers and make sure that it does not contain that language.

Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a great welcome offer for a credit card, even with the $695 annual fee. 200,000 Membership Rewards are worth about $3,000, so you are getting over $2,300 in value even after subtracting the annual fee. But the card also has valuable benefits that it maximized give you considerable value.
