New Amex Business Platinum Upgrade Offer
Targeted upgrade offers are going out once again for the Amex Business Platinum Card. Those eligible can earn 120,000 points after spending $10,000 within 3 months. Let’s see the details.
Business Platinum Upgrade Offer Details
The offer is as follows:
- Upgrade to the Business Platinum card and earn 120,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $10,000 within the first 3 months.
- You will be charged the $695 annual fee (or a proration of it).
There’s no link where you can check if you are targeted. You just need to log into your accounts either online or in the Amex app. These offers usually show under Amex Offers, as a banner, or they might come through your email.

Should You Take the Offer?
Normally, if you have never had the Business Platinum card then taking this upgrade offer will trigger the once per lifetime language on the Business Platinum card. So you would technically not be eligible for a future welcome offer on the card (the enforcement doesn’t always match the terms here).
If you’ve never had the card, then I would suggest looking for the 250,000 offer that is showing up for some people. That offer comes with a 20,000 spending requirement though.
This upgrade offer would be a better option for those who have, or already had the card in the past.
Final Thoughts
This is a good offer if you can meet the spend requirement, although we rarely see upgrade offer for as much as 180,000 points.
Check your Amex Offers section for the offer, it should be right at the top. Let us know if you are targeted!
