Update 3/9/20: This link seems to work incognito to get the 50,000 points with just $2,000 spend. (hat tip to intervested99) Might have to try a few times, for me it’s working consistently.
Seems to be frequently available again. Spend requirement is now $4,000 instead of $2,000. Hat tip to Monkey Miles

Our Verdict
This offer seemed to disappear when they offered the limited time rose gold promotion and now it is back again. Should also show up via referral if you use incognito mode as well but remember not to self refer anymore. We have seen a bonus of 50,000 + $100 so it might make sense to wait for a bigger offer to come along. Because of that I won’t be adding this to our list of the best credit card bonuses. If you’re thinking of applying, make sure you read these things everybody should know about American Express cards first.
