American Express Business Gold Card Now Has a 50K Bonus
The Amex Business Gold card was revamped and released last week. While earning on the card was improved with 4X categories, the lack of a signup bonus was a letdown. But that has now changed and you can earn 50,000 Membership Rewards points when you get the new card.
The Offer
Earn 50,000 Membership Rewards® points after you spend $5,000 in qualifying purchases on the Card within your first 3 months of Card Membership.
