Our Verdict
Better than the recent 130,000 point bonus. I suspect this won’t show up for everybody and it should show even if using a referral link but again won’t always show. Fantastic deal if you’ve never had the Business Platinum before (if you have you won’t get the sign up bonus). Will add this to the best credit card bonuses. As always you can read more about American Express cards here. There is also an increased offer of 90,000 on the business gold (possibly even higher).

Seeing a 250k/$20k public offer
Thanks, got that here: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/targeted-american-express-business-platinum-250000-point-offer/
Not the same thing. The one we see is one you can get with incognito mode. 250k/$20k. It’s more like upgrade of this post than the other one.
Double tapping. Got the same offer with incognito mode on this post link.
Seeing an online offer of 200k points on $20k spend for this one.
I was able to get 250k on Saturday 8/3
Just received a snail mail offer of 250,000 points for 15K spend for Amex Biz Platinum. That’s the highest I have seen, I often got mailers with 150K or 200K offers over the last several years.
Damn, I got the big fancy mailer too, but only a 175k offer. 250k I probably would have considered even if 15k in the next three months is a tight fit without any vacations.
I just got an email offer with this.
Same here. I got the offer of 250,000 points after $15k spend in 3 months.
I got it 2 months ago and already received the points!
Just received an invitation letter with RSVP code in the mailbox today to apply for this card for a signup bonus of 200K MR points within 3 months after spending $15K. Can anyone please tell me what is the best offer so far for this card?
A couple of weeks ago I was able to get a public offer for 250k points with $15k spend in 3 months, but got the message that I don’t qualify for a welcome bonus, so I moved on. Like you, I got a snail mail offer for 200k pts with $15k spend in 3 months. Applied using code in the mailer and was approved and confirmed with a rep after receiving the card that I will qualify for the welcome off bonus.
Thank you Walter for the feedback.
Been able to pull 200k / 20k spend in 3 months but there have been Reports of 300K SUB for business platinum (also 20k spend in 3mos)
AMEX BIZ PLAT in Incognito with a SUB of 250k if spent $15K. 4/18/24.YMMV
Just got Biz Platinum. Signed in from my account. Got better offer that way than incognito.
190,000 points $695 fee. No lifetime language.
15k spend.
I’ll use it to pay my taxes.
Where did you navigate to in order to find this NLL?
Same offer here. Under card offers when I logged in.
Is there a way to pull this even if you only have a personal amex account?
Previously had the Biz Plat and closed it after a few years of use. Opened up a Biz Gold last year to pay taxes. In December received a Biz Plat 140K upgrade offer for $10K spend in three months. After reading through the new T&C, I did not see any lifetime language rules so hoping the bonus pays out after my 2023 tax payments. Anyone else have experience with this?
Do you set your W4 to take out very little so at the end of the year you owe? or did you sell a bunch of stock or real estate? Curious on what causes someone to owe a bunch.
Investment gains from selling options. I don’t do estimated taxes because the gains from continuing to invest are higher than the tax penalty & interest.
got the 190k when apply on my phone. regular safari browser. I found 170k on my laptop by just googling amex platinum biz card. Later on, try on my phone, work the first time, apply and approve immediately.
open a regular web page and got 190 k i applied with instant approval!
