American Express Gold 75,000 Points + 20% Credit On Restaurant Spend (Max $250)

Update 7/14/22: Offer is back at this link

The Offer

Direct Link to offer

American Express is offering a sign up bonus on the Gold card as follows:

    • Get 75,000 points signup bonus when spending $4,000 within 6 months.
    • Get 20% back as a statement credit when you make a purchase at restaurants worldwide within the first 12 months of Card Membership, up to $250 back.

This offer is showing on the Resy website (restaurant reservation app), but the 20% credit is showing for any restaurant spend, unrelated to using Resy.

Card Details

Our Verdict

Last year we saw 60k + $250 which was the best-ever offer, and now they’ve upped it to 75k+ $250, best ever. An argument could be made for those in 2-player mode to use the public offer of 60,000 points via referral link for the 4x referral offer, depending on how you value that 4x earning rate.

If you’re thinking of applying, make sure you read these things everybody should know about American Express cards first. We’ll add this to our list of Best Credit Card Offers. The 125k + 15x small business offer from Resy on the American Express Platinum card is still showing as well and there’s a new increased offer on the Green card as well.

Does anyone have a referral for 90k + 200 offer. None of the links on the dedicated page works

Adding a DP here and seeing if anyone had the same…when I applied to the AmEx gold offer it said I wouldn’t be eligible to receive the bonus. I tried a different referral link and got the same answer. For context I’m 4/24, 2/12, 0/90. The only AmEx cards I’ve had are Delta and Hilton business cards, both opened in 2019 and closed in 2020.

OMG – I did a mistake applying for 90k offer. I just realized that the points are worth only 06 cents per point! So that means $540 – $250 ( annul fee) = $290!
Also, this card cannot be downgraded to no fee option and must be closed to avoid annual fee later. I wish I would have done more research – I have no use of these points other than cash redemption – I have zero interest in travel!

I saw in previous message you were interested in United miles. So Amex rewards points could be transferred to Avianca lifemiles, and they are the same Star alliance, so I believe you might next transfer it to United, and then sell for cash…

Just went with the 90K offer (no restaurant credit) and got approved. FICO score 803. 5/24 at the time of applying. I had JUST applied to United Explorer card (and was approved ). United card application was just 5 minutes before AMEX application when I was 4/24. I was approved for Wells Fargo Autograph card just a month ago!
I have some big expenses coming up ( unfortunate ones) – I am just trying to feel better by getting these SUBs. The lifetime language with AMEX kinda bums me out. I know this is not the best offer. Best offer was either 100k or 90k + $250 restaurant credit.

Is this card and the Gold Premier from years ago two different cards for once per lifetime rules?

From the T&C’s: Welcome offer not available to applicants who have or have had this Card or the Premier Rewards Gold Card.

Is the Premier Rewards Gold Card different than the Premium Rewards Gold Card? Pretty sure that’s what I had like 8 years ago.
