Guru’s Wrap-up
This is a great welcome bonus for the Amex Business Platinum Card and the highest offer we have ever seen for $15K spend. That’s still a lot of spending, so make sure you are able to complete it before applying. The offer also comes with 0% APR for 12 months, which gives you extra time to pay off your balances.
The offer has no lifetime language either from what I see. So that is another reason why this Amex Business Platinum 170K offer is great. It means you can get around the lifetime restriction and get a bonus on this card again.
