50,000 American Express Credit Card – NEW OFFER


This post may contain affiliate links from our advertising partners. Read my Advertiser Disclosure policy here. Additionally, some of the offers on this page may no longer be available through Deals We Like.

UPDATE: This offer has expired.

American Express just came out today with their new American Express Business Gold Rewards Credit Card offer – 50,000 Membership Reward points after $10,000 in spend within 5 months. Additionally, the annual fee of $175 is waived for the first year. This is currently a limited time offer without a current end date.

This is an excellent offer where you will not have to beg an agent to apply an offer code to your application! 50,000 Membership Reward points can go a long way, especially when you use then to transfer to a partner airline. With the many bonus offers that occur quite often (like the 50% Delta transfer offer), these 50,000 points can easily be used for a coach ticket to Europe from the US.

This card, along with the personal American Express Premier Gold card, has an amazing value when used to purchase airfare. You will earn 3 points/$1 on all airfare purchases, which is much more than any of the airline specific credit cards will give you. You will also earn 2 points/$1 spent on advertising, gas, and shipping purchases. You will then earn 1 point/$1 on every other purchases. (*for the triple and double points, you will earn this bonus on the first $100,000 of eligible purchases in each category each calendar year, and then 1 point/$1 thereafter).

To apply to this offer, click here. It seems as though calling American Express and trying to get the 100,000 bonus bump that was described previously is not working much anymore, but 50,000 points still is not too bad, especially when it is guaranteed. Unfortunately, existing American Express OPEN Gold Card members are not eligible for this offer.

And remember, although this is a business credit card, who is to say selling items on ebay, for example, is not considered a business!
