Our Verdict

You can get a bonus of 100,000 without upgrading. The advantage to upgrading is that you should be able to get the bonus even if you’ve had the Business Platinum before. If that’s you and you’re targeted then this offer is worth considering as normally you wouldn’t be able to get the bonus again. Just keep in mind the $595 annual fee. That’s partially offset by the $200 airline credit and other benefits (e.g lounge access) but still might not be worth it for some especially if you already have another variation of a Platinum card. Spend requirement of $10,000 might also be difficult for a lot of readers to meet.
