There is yet another targeted welcome offer for the American Express Business Gold card, this one offering an incredible 200,000 Membership Rewards after $10K in spend.
This 200K offer DOES NOT have once-in-a-lifetime language which excludes those who have the card or have had it in the past (and Amex always gives you a pop-up letting you know that you’re not eligible for the welcome bonus before it finalizes your application, regardless).
We’ve heard reports of this popping up in people’s accounts for a few weeks, and it appeared to be extremely targeted. Now, it seems like more folks have been added to the chosen few. Although my wife wasn’t targeted, I was…and I was approved for despite this being my 4th Biz Gold.
It should be noted that we don’t know the origin of this link, outside of the fact that Danny the Deal Guru posted it. However, the fact that you have to log-in in order to find out if you’re targeted makes it much safer (in my opinion) than what we call “post-targeted” links where there’s no log-in necessary…which we never post on Frequent Miler.
The Deal
- There is a targeted offer for the Amex Business Gold card that gives 200,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $10,000 within the first 3 months.
- This is a no lifetime language (NLL) offer
If after you log-in, you see this message (or something like it), it means you’re not targeted:

Quick Thoughts
After a bit of a lull in the Amex Points Parade, it certainly seems to be heating up again. This targeted offer is double the card’s current public offer and requires $5K less spend than the 200K referral offer that we’re displaying on our Best Offers page.
The Business Gold card can be a great card for many folks given the attractive 4x bonus categories and the monthly statement credit for office store purchases. Even if you didn’t take advantage of any of the bonus categories, this works out to 21x MR on $10K spend…an absolutely stellar deal.

Dead yesterday.

Woo thanks! I was able to bypass the 1/90 rule with this link and it’s an amazing offer!
Did you get the 200K/15K or the 200K/10k offer ?
200k/10k
Do we have an end date for this? I was targeted but looking on the landing page and offers terms it doesn’t have a set end date.
How does everyone generate that much spend in 3 months ? 10k to 15k is a lot for me. Would love some ideas. Total newb here.
Check out this post for some ideas.
This was interesting read.
Spend period nicely overlaps with tax season. Make a tax payment and get it refunded when you file your return.
Unfortunately didn’t work for P1 nor P2.
Awesome. Worked for P1 but not P2
Wootwoot! Got approved. Hope the offer stands for only 10k spend.
Is it risky to open the same card twice under a Sole Proprietorship?
No, not unless spend is suspect or you have late/returned payments.
Whoooohooo!!
Also got approved for this amazing offer!…thank you Tim & Company!!!
Got approved!! Thanks!
This is nice!
I have been getting the pop-up jail for a few months because of too many open and closed Amex accounts. I tried the link and got approved although I cancelled by card not too long time ago.
It worked for me, got approved. Thank you!
Anyone verify the SUB and the MSR after approval ?
I think it is too early, it takes a few days to load the promo after approval. Probably tomorrow would be the first day to check.
a DD from me, after seeing this article, clicked and applied for the card and got approved immediately.. This is my 2nd active business gold, and 3rd lifetime..
thanks for the heads up FM team!
