Update 3/17/25: $1,000 bonus after $5,000 in spend is back on all five banks:
- AmegyBank: Texas only
- California Bank & Trust: California only
- Vectra Bank Colorado: Colorado & New Mexico only
- Zion’s Bank: Utah, Idaho or Wyoming
- National Bank of AZ: Arizona
Update 5/6/23: Zions Bank now showing $1,000 bonus with $5,000 spend at this link (ht Celia). The California option is now showing this bonus as well.
Update 11/15/21: Arizona is now $2,000.
Update 5/12/21: AmegyBank is offering $1,000 now
Update 3/21/21: There is now a $1,500 bonus. Broken down as follows

- Plus, get an additional 100,000 bonus points when you spend $50,000 in the first six months from account opening
Previous best was $1,000 bonus, but that only required $7,500 in spend.
The Offer
- There are a number of banks that offer AmaZing business credit cards. These cards are currently offering the following bonuses:
- $500 cash bonus when you spend $4,000 within 90 days of account opening. They also have point options as well (100,000/50,000 points).
- $1,000 cash bonus when you spend $7,500 within 90 days of account opening
- The following credit unions offer these cards:
- AmegyBank: Texas only ($1,000)
- California Bank & Trust: California only ($1,500 bonus only)
- Vectra Bank Colorado: Colorado only ($1,500 bonus only)
- Zion’s Bank: Utah, Idaho or Wyoming (no bonus)
- National Bank of AZ: Arizona ($2,000 bonus)
Card Details
- Amazing cash & rewards earn at the following rates:
- 3% cash back on cellular services, internet, office supplies, telecommunications (landline), and cable
- 2% cash back on airlines and car rentals
- 1% cash back on other purchases
- No annual fee
- 0% Intro APR for 6 months on new purchases
Our Verdict
Standard sign up bonus is $250/25,000 points after $2,500 in spend and these cards have long been listed on our best cash sign up bonus pages, unfortunately it seems not all banks that issue these AmaZing business cards are offering the increased bonus. These cards do not report to your personal report, good for those trying to stay under 5/24. Obviously a great bonus, unfortunately we don’t know a lot about any of these banks so please share your experiences in the comments.

Post history:
- Update 11/10/19: They are all back to $1,000 apart from California which is $500. Hat tip to culdeus
- Update 2: Looks to be Utah, Idaho or Wyoming
- Update 9/25/19: It looks like Zion is offering a $1,000 bonus to everybody in AZ, CA, CO, ID, NV, NM, TX, UT, or WY. Hat tip to churnandburn58
- Update 8/22/19: Arizona is back to a $1,000 bonus.
- Update 3/19/19: Some are offering a bonus of $500 again. This isn’t as good as the previous bonus of up to $1,000 they have offered in the past. Fine print says the offers expire on 6/33/2019, I assume they might mean 6/23/19 or 6/13/19?
- Update 09/23/18: Bonuses are back for 2018! Hat tip to reader BarryEgansPudding. Valid until November 30th, 2018
- Originally posted on 10/9/17, reposting on 10/31/17 because the bonus is also available at Vectra Bank in Colorado.
can one business get all 3 offers from the 3 cards?
The three cards cannot be opened simultaneously. One will have to be opened first, even if only by a few minutes. Once that first card is open, you have “an open business credit card relationship” and are not eligible for any additional bonuses until the churn period is over.
From the fine print: “Bonus not available to clients with an open business credit card relationship within the previous 12 months, or to clients who have received an introductory promotional bonus within the previous 48 months.”
Wondering about the last part. Any bonus or credit card specific?
However, I strongly recommend that you reach out to the manager of your nearest branch and have them get something in writing from the corporate marketing team so that you have something to point to in case of a dispute.
Assumed same but will check with my banker. Thanks,
It sounds like if someone had a business card with them before, it had to be closed for more than 12 months and if that person received a new card bonus with them before it had to be more than 48 months ago?
That’s the way I read it.
Thanks favo. I’ll post if I find out otherwise.
TL;DR If you are denied and would like to try for recon, don’t try to call the CS line. Go to a branch and try to enlist help from the branch manager.
A note about this bank’s recon process:
If you are unlucky enough to be initially denied and need to go to recon, don’t try to call the Customer Service line. This will be pointless because this bank has no dedicated recon team — and you are not allowed to speak directly to Underwriting (which does all application review manually).
Here’s what worked for P2: She was initially denied because (supposedly) the underwriters were unable to verify that she has a real business. Since she is a licensed professional with a giant stack of paper proving that she has a real business, and the bank never asked for any paperwork before denial, this seemed more than a little odd. We went to our local branch and spoke to the manager, who took charge of the process and reached out to Underwriting to find out what happened. It turned out that the denial was the result of a misunderstanding, which the branch manager helped to resolve. He then forwarded P2’s business license and tax information to Underwriting, and shepherded the recon process through to a successful resolution. It took 6 weeks from application to approval, but P2 did get her card in the end.
Finished my Docusign. Your application is currently under review. We will contact you within the next 5 business days regarding the status of your request.
When I applied for CA one in 2023, it asked for personal tax returns 1040 and all schedules for the years 2022 and 2021. Thus, I chose not to move forward.
Applied. Application under review. We’ll see what happens.
Has anyone got an approval at Amegy Bank with just EIN? Will they ask for financials or state license?
I applied for the CA one and it went to pending and they sent me a DocuSign link but I can’t even get past the initial ID verification with my phone number(It’s a T-Mobile number I’ve had for 20 years) or scanning the QR code, it just immediately says We couldn’t verify your identity. Anyone else run into that and have any ideas?
Did it ask for ein to go through?
I solved it by switching the default browser on my iPhone from Edge to Safari and the ID verification worked fine after that.
ca link is broken
You have to use the new link in the Update, not the old link in the body of the post.
The card is offered as a cash back card, or a a points earning rewards card, with a bonus of $1000 and 100,000 points respectively.
What are these points worth and how can they be redeemed? Which version is better?
I got the cash back version a while ago. If I remember correctly, the bonus could be redeemed into checking if you have checking with them, or redeemed as statement credit to the credit card.
Also wondering how the points are redeemed
