The Offer
Direct link (login and card details required to see offer)
- Get a bonus 5,000 Amex Membership Rewards points when you add an authorized user to your Premier Rewards Gold card and spend $500 within 3-months
This is a targeted offer. Use the above link to login, and after selecting the PRG card it will show the bonus offer if you are targeted. Seems to be working for everyone, but YMMV. E-mail subject line is “Please read, Because you’re appreciated, earn extra Membership Reward points – Add An Additional Card”.
The Fine Print
- $500 spend can be done on the new AU card or any other AU card, but not on the primary card
- Bonus points can take 8-12 weeks to post (usually it posts much faster)
- Limit one 5,000 bonus per primary card (adding two AUs won’t get you two bonuses)
Our Verdict
We’ve seen similar offers on other cards (and even the same offer on this card) before:
- [Targeted] Get 2500 Miles on Amex Delta Platinum with Adding Authorized User Card
- [Targeted] Get 2500 Miles on Amex Delta Gold with Adding Authorized User Card
- [YMMV] 2,500 SPG Points For Adding An Authorized User For American Express Cardholders
- [YMMV] 10,000/5,000 Points For Adding An Authorized User To AmEx Hilton Cards
As always there are three things to keep in mind when considering these deals:
- No fee to add an additional cardholder
- These authorized user accounts do count towards the Chase 5/24 rule
- SSN is required (not required if you add AU by chat, at least instantly).
