Looks like the offer is actually targeted, but it doesn’t have lifetime language either so that’s one positive I guess.
The Offer
- American Express is offering a sign up bonus of 20,000 points after $5,000 in spend within the first three months of card ownership on the American Express Blue Business Plus
Card Details
- 2x Membership Rewards points on all purchases for the first $50,000 per calendar year
- 1x Membership Rewards points on all other purchases
- No annual fee
- Offer valid until 12/31/18
Our Verdict
This is the same point bonus as the best offer, but it’s $5,000 spend vs $3,000. That shouldn’t be a huge deal for most people as the card does earn 2x points and is one of the best every day earning cards. I’m not sure we will ever see a 20,000 point for $3,000 spend public bonus again either so I’d probably jump on this card/bonus if you’re interested. Something to important to note is that American Express limits you to:
- one approved credit card every 5 day rolling period and two approved credit cards every 90 rolling period
It looks like there will be a three day period where people can get the American Express SPG Luxury card starting on August 23rd, it might be wise to hold off on this application until you get that luxury card especially if you’ve recently been approved for another American Express credit card. Hopefully this Blue Business Plus offer lasts until December 31st, but I suspect it will die shortly. If you have any questions about American Express cards, read this first before asking them in the comments.
