[Expired] Increased Signup Bonus Offers on American Express Hilton Honors, Surpass, and Business Cards

Update 4/29/21: These are available again. New link here and here. Go incognito if it doesn’t work in your regular browser. Hat tip to reader Julian

(Update: previously this was only available via referral, it’s now available directly on the AmEx site as well. Updated below.)

The Offer

Consumer Cards | Business version

There are now increased signup bonus offers showing on American Express Hilton cards, available both at the public link above and when applying via referral link:

  • Hilton Honors no fee card: Get $100 Statement Credit after first purchase and 100,000 Hilton Honors points after $1,000 spend in 3 months.
  • Hilton Honors Surpass with $95 annual fee: Get $150 Statement Credit after first purchase and 150,000 Hilton Honors points after $2,000 spend in 3 months.
  • Hilton Honors Business with $95 annual fee: Get $150 Statement Credit and 150,000 Hilton Honors points after $2,000 spend in 3 months.

The Hilton Honors Aspire is still at the 150,000 with $4,000 spend, as before.

Our Verdict

These are all terrific offers, coupled with the fact that the referrer also can get a nice bonus. On the no-fee consumer card we’ve never seen above 100k or 75k+$100; this referral offer is giving  100k+$100. On the Surpass we’ve seen targeted offers of 150k or even 175k; this referral offer is giving 150k+$150 with lower spend requirement. On the business card we’ve never seen above 125k+$100; this referral offer is giving 150k+$150. No new offer for the Hilton Aspire is showing via referral link.

Finally decided to try applying for the $95 card and got “This offer is no longer available.” when I clicked on Apply Now even though it was showing on the page linked here. In fact, none of the offers with the cash back are available.

No amount of clearing cache/incognito mode would open up these offers. :/

Ten Priority Pass lounge visits included with the $95 card is a nice deal, and especially with the $150 cash back on first purchase. Are there any other cards at that price point that include even limited PP membership?

The US Bank Altitude Reserve has 4x visits.
It has a $400 annual fee, but also a $325 travel/restaurant credit, so net $75.
