Lots of people are being targeted now with high American Express credit card signup bonuses. Most of them we’ve spoken about before, and we’ll round up the ones that people are seeing now.

Getting The Offers
There are two ways you can see if you have special targeted Amex credit card offers:
- Direct Link –Â Â Use the American Express pre-approved checker on the American Express website
- Direct Link (non-affiliate link) –Â Check CardMatch
There is no hard pull for using either of these tools, as noted clearly when going through the process.
50,000 for Premier Rewards Gold
- Signup for PRG and get 50,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $1,000 within 3-months.
This one is the most reported from these targeted offers. Pretty good deal – there has been a 75k offer in the past, albeit with much more spend.
If you don’t see the offer, you can also try opening this link private browser mode and see what comes up. It’s often worked to pull up the 50k offer after numerous attempts, not sure if people are having success with this now.
100,000 for Platinum personal card
- Signup for Platinum personal card and get 100k membership rewards points after spending $3,000 within 3-months.
There have been reports in the wild of 150k targeted offers in the past, but this one is probably worth getting if you never had the Platinum personal before. Â It does come up semi-regularly via special offers.
30,000 for Everyday Preferred
- Signup for the Everyday Preferred card and get 30k Membership Rewards points after spending $2k within 3-months.
This offer we’ve seen numerous times as well. Good offer – doesn’t get better than this.
50,000 Delta Gold
- Signup for the Gold Delta Skymiles card and get 50k bonus miles after spending $1k within 3-months
- Also, get a $50 statement credit after making a Delta purchase within 3-months
This offer comes up often as well, it’s even been a public offer. Good deal with the low $1,000 spend requirement. There was once a better offer in the past.
$1,000 Cash for Simply Cash Plus
There is a new, enhanced version of the Simply Cash card called the Simply Cash Plus –Â full review here.
This offer isn’t showing up with CardMatch, but one Fatwallet member saw this $1,000 bonus offer in his Amex login, a nice 10% rebate on $10k in spend! Hopefully, they’ll be offering good public bonuses for this card in the future.
- Signup for the Simply Cash Plus and receive a $500 cash bonus after spending $5k within 3-months, or get $1,000 after spending $10k.
We’ve spoke about the fact that Amex started sending targeted offers via the login, alongside Amex Offers. This is just a reminder to keep an eye out there when you log into your Amex account.

Hat tip to viewfromthewing for reporting on most of these offers
I received a targeted email and letter offer for the 50K PRG card this week. I had the PRG card 4 years ago and canceled it after the first year. I do not find any restriction about “one bonus per lifetime” in the materials sent to me. Has Amex changed their policy or is the restriction found somewhere else?
Your old direct link for last years 75K Business Gold Rewards card, is actually active once again. 75K points when you spend $5000 in 3 months, must apply by March 31, 2016. here is the link again:

You mention a 75k gold and 150k platinum offer in your post, but those are business cards, which are totally different products. Right now, 50k/1k PRG and 100k/3k personal platinum are the best offers around for these products.
God bless you, Chuck and DOC.
while all these “travel bloggers” peddled and pimped the 15k amex preferred offer, you are the only one who would write about the 30K offer.
i can’t thank enough.
That was stupid of them to talk about a 15k offer, being as there’s a 25k offer for the ED.
Can never seem to pull up the amex Prg 50k.
Any tips?
I used to be able to pull it everytime and now that I want to get it for my wife I can not get it to come up….have not been able to for months. I have tried 4 browsers etc…my only guess is trying it on someone else’s internet/computer and it may come up then.
After repeated attempts at opening an incognito window, and following the link, I was finally able to get the 50k offer. I then logged into my AmEx account and it automatically switched over to the 25k at $2k spending. I left the page, cleared my cookies and cache, and sure enough when I tried it again the 50k was there. I applied and was accepted. Give it a whirl, I hope you are able to get it.
I got targeted for the 75k Business Rewards Gold (not currently listed here) in my Amex Offers. Interestingly, the offer blurb said 10k spend requirement, but when I clicked through the application page only required 5k spend to earn the bonus.
Nice!
Useless without serve. With serve piece of cake.
Even without serve these offers are easy-moderate to meet. (1k-3k) in my opinion.
I have 800+ credit, but never seem to match to these big AMEX offers…oh well.
Do you have any other Amex cards? I’m not sure if it matters, but my BCE card is nearly three years old, and I was recently targeted for the PRG offer (50k points for $1k spend in 3 months).
My CR is 800 also.
