Our Verdict
Some were getting targeted with the 90,000 offer and we now have a public link. This link is even more interesting since it does not show any lifetime language – this offer and that of the 150,000 Business Platinum card are of the ‘extend/expand your membership’ genre which does not seem to have the Amex lifetime limitations. These links might not work for everyone, YMMV.
If you’ve never had this card before, you might prefer using a friend’s/spouse’s referral link which gets them a bonus as well. We’ll add this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
Hat tip to Frequentmiler
It says the offer is no longer available, but when I clicked on the link after the sentence, it gave me the option of 250k points for the platinum and 150k points for the gold, but without the NLL language.
Also got, This offer is no longer available.
Adding another data point: also got the “offer no longer available” message on the 70k Gold or NLL Platinum offer, and – possibly because I had a Business Gold and Business Platinum recently which I had closed – for the other offers I got a “not eligible for welcome offer” pop up.
I get the “offer no longer available message.”
Spend on the biz cards for these rewards has gotten nuts… was lucky enough to recently be targeted for a NLL Platinum personal offer for 150k for only $6000 spend, so still worthwhile even as coupon-book-trash as the card has become…. but 10k spend for 70k points (and a $375 AF) seems pretty marginal for value unless you’re just flat out blocked from any other SUBs with anyone…
5.65% net bonus on the 70k/$10k variety after the $375 AF even when treating the $240 coupon book benefit at full value. Why is this considered a good deal?
It’s right in the title, No Lifetime Language.
Its horrible. One of the worst deals out there. I woudn’t waste my time with it. I would rate Amex points maybe worth 1.0 CPP if I am being generous. And this card really has no coupons. Totally worthless.
Seems like it could be decent for people planning to put all their spend on the 4x categories. But if not, it doesn’t seem great.
Because? If you’re a churner and you’re out of worthwhile thinfs to churn and plan on spending 10k organically, it’s free money
You can also get 120k for the business platinum with NLL here: https://www.americanexpress.com/en-us/campaigns/small-business/bundles/business-platinum-employee-card/intro-offer/
Ugh if only I could guarantee 15k spend in 3 months. I could stretch 10k for gold….
I just got 170k with link below. I would try that one first.
I mean 190k
Is that 170/190 NLL? Op is saying 120K plat is NLL
unfortunately this asks for a login to apply and then says offer not available for me. No way to apply without logging in
Same here for me, not showing upon login
I consistently get the 190k business platinum and 150k business gold using this link on private browsing:

You are lucky! 120k for me on that offer on incognito consistently.
I just got 170k icongito. Still seems like not worth it to me.
Wait a second I just saw 190k.
Frogger, because you have or had the Business Platinum Card® or previous versions of this Card, you are not eligible to receive the welcome offer.
Yep, I was able to pull this offer once about a month ago. Got all excited and then got that message.
Managed to pull the 190K offer, but in pop up jail for P1 & P2. bummer
We are sorry.This offer is no longer available. If you’d still like to apply for a Business Card from American Express click here.
Link works for p1 not p2. You’re just not targetted
Anyone successful using this card to fund a deposit account and it processing as a purchase?
The only one I know of that works for sure is US Bank business checking $3000
