Our Verdict

Standard high bonus on this card has been 50,000 points after $4,000 in spend. Although we have seen 50,000 + $100 before as well. This 70,000 offer is a new high and definitely worth doing if you’re targeted. We won’t be adding this to the best credit card bonus page due to this being a targeted offer. If you’re thinking of applying, make sure you read these things everybody should know about American Express cards first.
