Link to Upgrade Offer For Ascend Card, 150K Hilton Points!
This offer ends 7/16/19. I was not targeted and accepted the offer and the points have already posted to my account but YMMV.
American Express is targeting some customers who have the no fee Hilton card with an offer to upgrade to Hilton Ascend (soon to be Hilton Surpass again)and get 150,000 points. The nice thing about upgrade offers is that they don’t require a hard pull and the annual fee is usually prorated the first year.
Details
Upgrade and earn 150,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points after you spend $3,000 in purchases on the Card within your first 3 months of Card Membership
This time there’s a direct link to the upgrade offer, and you can easily check if you’re eligible.
Ascend Card
The Hilton Honors American Express Ascend card earns points the following ways:
- 12X Hilton Honors bonus points for each dollar of eligible purchases charged on your Card directly with a participating hotel or resort within the Hilton Portfolio.
- 6X Hilton Honors bonus points for each dollar of eligible purchases on your Card at U.S. restaurants, at U.S. supermarkets, and at U.S. gas stations.
- 3X Hilton Honors bonus points for all other eligible purchases on your Card.
It also offers the following perks:
- Earn a free weekend night after you spend $15,000 in a calendar year on your card.
- No foreign transaction fees
- Earn 500 Hilton Honors bonus points when you use your card to both book online and pay for your Hilton stay.
- A limited Priority Pass Lounge Membership – 10 free visits per cardmember year.
- As an American Express Ascend card member, you’ll receive Hilton Honors Gold status automatically and can upgrade yourself to Diamond status with $40,000 in spend during the calendar year.
Conclusion
This is an amazing deal and it is even better than the current public bonus on the Ascend Card. And you don’t even have to use a hard pull to get it. Let me know in the comments if you are eligible.

Thanks for the reminder! Just upgraded the wife’s card.
I got the Ascend upgrade offer via email only, I never saw it when I logged onto Amex (only offer I saw when logging in was the Aspire). I had been holding out for an Ascend offer, so I was happy to get it!
Congrats Kevin!
Can someone else check the link now? When I tried to login to the offer page, i just got the marching dots forever (like the page was thinking) for both myself and wife’s basic Amex cards (we both had surpass cards several years ago, but downgraded well before the switch to Ascend). Tried in Chrome and IE current versions.
Kinda weird, using your link, I get to the landing page of 150k upgrade, but when I log in
I get a choice to upgrade my two no fee amex hilton cards to Delta Platinum Business cards instead.
I have been waiting on this for my wife for quite some time. It still doesn’t show up on her account on the offers page but it showed up when using your link. Hopefully she will get the aspire upgrade offer at some point. Thanks!
Got it, yay! Hubby had gotten the Aspire upgrade offer but I didn’t, so I was hoping something like this would come along. Perfect timing since I just used up almost all my Hilton points.
Hi there. I got an email offer with the 150k to upgrade but state the annual fee will be $89 , I followed the instructions and still state that the fee will not be waved , If I follow your link the fee will be waved ?
Wife and I both got it and upgraded.
Wife got that after cancelling no fee Hilton card. She then got the 150K and just after that she got targeted for another 150k to move to the Aspire card.
