[Targeted] American Express: Add An Employee Card & Earn 20K Points (Up To 99 Employees)

Update 10/5/21: You can try using this link. Hat tip to Parts_Unknown-

The Offer

No direct link to offer. Offer being offered when calling in to American Express for other reasons

  • American Express is offering some business cardholders 20,000 points when they add an employee card and they spend $4,000 within six months. You can add up to 99 employees for a total of 1,980,000 points back

Our Verdict

Some people have the same offer but for only 5,000 points, spend requirement is only for $1,000 though. You don’t need to supply a SSN when adding an employee card, but the employee needs to add it within 60 days otherwise the account will be closed.

I cant get these to work at all. I fill out the application and hit submit and nothing happens. It was like this back In Nov when these links first launched, and its still not working for me. Are there any tricks that I am missing? preferred browser or something?

How does everyone go about adding many multiple “employees”? I had to give SSN and other info before activating the one employee card I got. Are people doing the spend on the employee card and then canceling it before 60 days is up? Or what’s the workaround here? I feel like I’m missing something.

Confused a bit here. After adding emp cards I get this:
In order to use the Employee Card to make purchases, you or your employee will need to provide the employee’s Residential Address, Social Security Number, and Date of Birth when confirming the Employee Card. If this information is not provided within 60 days of Card issuance, your Employee Card will be canceled.”

So will I have to provide before they can be used or is that just how Amex writes it but in practice its different?

I don’t care if they close after 60 days, I’ll meet spend in a few days of getting the cards.

Not exactly true. They started sending them not activated but now sometimes do again. 60-89% of mine arrive activated as of this week. More BBP than abp arrive activated.

Does this error mean I’m not targeted, or can I still call in to have these cards added for the bonus – We’re sorry. There’s been an unexpected error and the page you’re trying to reach is temporarily down.

Getting the same error on mine. I had the offer available a few weeks ago and wanted to go back to add more cars to it.

did this just come back for the first time now in August? Like there wasn’t an employee card bonus between ~March and ~August now?

Using this the link, I am able to add authorized users on my non MR cards (BV Biz & Delta Biz). So how does this work? Would I receive 20K MR for adding an authorized user on my bonvoy card?

no, it’s specific only for MR business cards. So green, gold, or plat.

Wanted to update: Using the link specific for Gold, was able to get 20K for $4K to stack with $10K MSR.
