75K Bonus for AmEx Gold Business TODAY and TOMORROW ONLY

August 8, 2012 By 12 Comments

Thanks to The Points Guy for sharing that American Express is offering a 75,000 Membership Rewards points sign-up bonus for their Business Gold Rewards card. This offer is available TODAY only!

Personally I won’t be taking advantage of it. The required minimum spend is $10,000 in four months with the annual fee of $175 waived the first year. But I have an uncertain financial future right now. Although there are lots of ways to goose spend without actually spending money, I prefer not to use those approaches. I’m sure this offer will appear again when I will be able to take advantage of it with more confidence.

I won’t be updated the business card page on my blog because this is a one-day offer, but you can read more about its benefits there.

I’m likely to apply for an SPG AmEx Business card instead because of the lower $5,000 requirement in six months. Several people have asked me to refer them for the personal SPG AmEx. I’m very grateful for the support, but some of you have been asking if I can refer you for the business version, as well. Sadly I cannot because I don’t yet have one.

If one of you wants to send a referral to Scott Mackenzie for the business card, I’d be happy to let you earn your own 5K points referral bonus! Then maybe I’ll be able to refer some of you to the business card in the future, perhaps as early as later this month while the 30K sign-up offer is still out there.

    I’ll do it — what’s your email?

    I a little confused. I thought both the personal and business card had $5000 req in 6 months? But apparently business req is lower?

    • Scottrick

      I was saying I am not applying for the AmEx Gold Business card, because that’s $10K in 3 months. Instead I will apply for the AmEx SPG Business card, which has a lower $5K in 6 months (the same as the AmEx SPG Personal card).

         Ah yes yes. My mistake for not thinking in context.

      I can’t refer people for the Business Gold AmEx. You’ll have to visit The Points Guy’s page to find an application link.
