Guru’s Wrap-up
This is the best offer yet. You can get 125K when spending $6,000 within the first six months, plus 15X at restaurants worldwide and when you Shop Small in the U.S., on up to $25,000 in combined purchases for those first six months. That can be an additional 375K Membership Rewards points if maximized. However, it can still be better to apply through referrals if you get the 125K offer. Especially if the person referring you can see a rare 45K referral bonus that is showing up for some Amex Platinum cardholders.
