Amex Application Rules

American Express restricts you to just one sign up bonus per credit card product. That’s once per lifetime. Even if you previously had the card and didn’t receive a bonus (maybe during your pre-churning days), you won’t be eligible for a bonus on the same card. Business and personal cards count as separate products. If you’re not sure which cards you’ve had in the past, there’s a way to check.

American Express also has some other restrictions on applications. You can only apply for two Amex cards every 90 days and you’re limited to a total of 5 Amex cards at a time. Charge cards do not count towards these limits.

Guru’s Wrap-Up

Some great increased Delta bonuses and definitely worth it if you’ve had your eyes on any of these cards. It’s even better if you use a referral from a family member or friend since they also get some SkyMiles.
