How to get the Amex Business Platinum Card bonus
- Apply on americanexpress.com; the offer shown to you is a soft pull and will not affect your personal credit.
- If the shown offer is worth it, submit; spend $20,000 in the first 3 months.
- Points post 8 to 12 weeks after you meet the requirement.
The fine print that matters
- Welcome offers are personalized. The 300,000 figure is the public maximum, not a guaranteed offer.
- A business entity is required to apply; a sole proprietorship using your own name and SSN can qualify.
- Points are Membership Rewards; their worth depends on how you redeem. This site publishes no cents-per-point valuation.
