Amex EveryDay Preferred 30,000 points ($95 annual fee)

10/15/2015

0 Comments

 
Picture
Amex EveryDay Preferred has been one of our favorite cards since its launch in March 2014.  Our major complaint about this card is its relatively modest signup bonus of 15,000 points, especially compared to the great offering from other cards.  Now for a limited time, Amex has doubled the signup bonus: you will receive 30,000 Membership Rewards points, which can be transferred to miles of British, Delta, Hawaiian, Air Canada, ANA, Singapore, Cathay Pacific, etc, after you spend $2,000 within 3 months of new account opening.  Note that the $95 annual fee is NOT waived for the first year as always.

Amex has recently been trying something new when offering a signup promotion to customers.  Looks like that people may get different offers when visiting Amex website.  If you follow the following steps, you will most likely get the 30K offer on EveryDay Preferred:
  1. open your browser in incognito mode (in Google Chrome, or InPrivate mode in Internet Explorer, or Private mode in Firefox or Safari);
  2. visit Amex website and find EveryDay Preferred or simply visit https://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/amex-everyday-preferred/ - most likely you will see the 30K offer;
  3. if you still have the 15K offer showing, clear cookies in your browser and try again or use a different browser.

Amex Business Gold Rewards Card 75,000 points & 1st year free

9/26/2015

Amex has been running 75K signup promotions for its Business Gold Rewards Card, one of our Top Listers, for a long time and they have always been limited time offers (sometimes lasted only one day).  Earlier this year, Amex has been keeping a link for a similar offer for widely targeted customers.  You will need to visit the link below and log into your Amex account to see if you qualify for 75,000 points.  If you receive an error then you probably don't qualify.  You will need to spend $5,000 within 3 months of new account opening to receive 75,000 Membership Rewards points, which can be transferred to miles/points of Delta, Hawaiian, Air Canada, British, Singapore, Cathay Pacific, ANA, and many other airline or hotel partners.  As always, the $175 annual fee is waived for the first year.

Amex Premier Rewards Gold 50,000 points (1st year free) && Amex Platinum Card 100,000 points ($450 annual fee, $200 annual airline credit, airport lounge access, hotel privileges, etc.)

8/28/2015

Amex has a promotional offer for one of our Top Listers Premier Rewards Gold Card - you will receive 50,000 Membership Rewards points after you open a new account and spend $1,000 within 3 months.  The regular offer is 25,000 points.  The first year annual fee is waived, saving $195.  Please note that the signup bonus will NOT be given if you have or previously had this product.

However, there is no public link that works for everyone.  Amex has recently been trying something new when offering a signup promotion to customers.  Looks like that people may get different offers when visiting Amex website.  Don’t worry, if you follow the following steps, you will most likely get the 50K offer on the PR Gold:
  1. open your browser in incognito mode (in Google Chrome, or InPrivate mode in Internet Explorer, or Private mode in Firefox or Safari);
  2. visit Amex website and find the Premier Rewards Gold Card - most likely you will see the 50K offer;
  3. if you still have the 25K offer showing, clear cookies in your browser and try again or use a different browser.

Also for a limited time, Amex is also running a promotion offer for its Platinum Card - you will receive 100,000 Membership Rewards points after you open a new account and spend $3,000 within 3 months.  The regular offer is 40,000 points.  The $450 annual fee is NOT waived.  Steep the annual fee may seem, after taking advantage of the $200 annual airline credit, your effective annual fee becomes $250 and you could enjoy some very valuable perks such as airport lounge access, Fine Hotels and Resorts, reimbursed Global Entry application fees, etc.  That is why it is not only on our Top List, but also recommended as one of cards worth paying annual fees without spending.  Please note that the signup bonus will NOT be given if you have or had this product.  

You can follow similar steps listed above; however, the 100K offer on the Platinum Card is much harder to come by - you may need to try dozens of times.  If you prefer calling Amex instead, you can give them the POID code BUIU:0001 and they will be able to find the 100K offer for you.

Amex Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) 30,000 points each (personal and business) & 1st year free

8/12/2015

0 Comments

 
Amex has offered increased signup bonus to 30,000 points (from the regular 25,000 points) for its Amex SPG, for several summers in a row.  Now it is back through September 14, 2015.  This time, you will need to spend $3,000 within 3 months to receive 30K points for the personal card version, and you will need to spend $5,000 within 3 months to receive 30K points for the business card version.  Our current valuation of Starpoints is 2.25 cents per point, thus the signup bonus for each card will be $675.  If you sign up both personal and business cards, you will receive 60,000 points.

Also note that even though the annual fee is waived for the first year, it has been increased from $65 to $95 effective today.  However, Amex does bring a few new perks to justify the increase in annual fees: waived foreign transaction fees, complimentary unlimited Boingo Wi-Fi plan, complimentary premium internet at participating Starwood hotels, and finally access to Sheraton Club Lounges for business cardholders.  We have updated our review to reflect these changes.

New reviews up: Barclays Hawaiian, BofA Spirit, BofA new Asiana Amex, 

5/4/2014

0 Comments

 
We have three new reviews this week.  Barclays replaced BofA as the new issuer of Hawaiian Airlines MasterCard, which has some improvements over the old product.  BofA Spirit MasterCard returns 2-2.5 miles per dollar spent and looks great on paper, but we suggest you do your homework before jumping in.  BofA's old Asiana Amex was very competitive with 2 miles per dollar spent earning rate and the new Asiana Amex after 2013 has been an disappointment due to the fact that BofA changed the earning rate on general spending to be 1 mile per dollar spent.

We also updated reviews on Amex Gold Delta and Platinum Delta cards due to the increased annual fee on Platinum Delta (from $150 to $195) and the added waived foreign transaction fees and EVM chip.
