Amex Hilton Aspire, Waived Annual Fee and 150K Bonus
American Express has an offer for the Hilton Aspire card that is showing a waived annual fee. That is a big deal as this is a premium card that a $450 fee. Having it waived for the first year while still getting all the benefits and a 150K bonus, is as good as it gets.
Offer
- Earn 150,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points after you spend $4,000 in eligible purchases on the Card within your first 3 months of Card membership.
