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.
