Our Verdict

This also has no lifetime language as well, meaning you can get the card/bonus even if you’ve held the card before. We’ve seen massive targeted offers of 260,000 or 230,000, but for the regular folk 150,000 or 160,000 or 170,000 have been the best offers available. Very good deal if you’re eligible.

  • The first two links, for me, pop up as expired. Link 3 and the "direct link to offer" pop up as, "We’re sorry. The page you are trying to reach is not active. We ask that you review the URL and try again."

  • Just find the 19K offer by searching American Express Business Platinum. But this has the Lifetime Language. Is there any valid NLL offer for 15 K now?

  • How the hell do you guys meet the $15k spend within 3 months? I recently got approved for their business checking bonus and got an offer to apply for this card for 150,000 points.

    • Typically, what I do is spend $15k within 3 months, that usually works to earn the bonus.

      In all seriousness, if you can't do the spend, obviously don't sign up, but many people can (MS or otherwise).

  • AMEX seems to send out NLL offers on the Biz platinum and gold so often I think i've gotten the bonus on this card four times. I wonder why these two cards in particular always have NLL offers?

    • My assumption would be that their other business cards are co-branded or do not bring them much in terms of annual fees which could potentially equate to the users spending more with these particular cards.

  • If I currently have a business platinum I earned the bonus on last year with one of my business EINs, can I get this no lifetime language bonus using a different EIN?

    • Yes - you can even do it on the same EIN. That's the beaty of the no lifetime language. You are allowed to have multiple of each card.

  • Are there any recent data points of being denied the SUB because of a $15K IRS tax payment to meet minimum spend? I believe AmEx promotes tax payments.

  • This link gives 120K only. I have a 160k Offer in my account. Waiting till Dec to triple digit...

    • What does triple digit mean ? Can you please explain.

      I already have one Amex biz platinum card that I’ve kept open for 5-6 years. Never opened a second. This promo seems good though. What exactly are you waiting for How you would approach it in December? Would love to know

      • Assuming they meant triple dip the perks with one annual fee. This Dec, then 2024, then 2025 before cancellation.

    • Click on link one or link two. I got 150,000 point offer on those two links. But if you have 160,000, that's obviously better and safer.
