Our Verdict
Reader Tom is pulling up the 60,000 offer (not clear what the ‘new launch offer’ verbiage means), whereas my referral links pull up the 50,000 offer. Previous best was 45,000 points, and that one was hard to pull up with 30,000 being the more standard best offer.
Really a terrific offer. Currently this is only available via referral link; remember, you can use a link from any card to get this card, so ask a friend or family member for a link to give them some referrer credit.
Keep in mind the sign up bonus is once per lifetime. As always please read this post on everything you should know about American Express cards.
