Strategy to obtain US Amex

[levelnine]

Employee card offers are available with the $0 employee card option. Don't need to spend $95 per employee card.

oh ok, but it's still $20K spend for 75K.

If you are spend constrained, you should always be going for a new card SUB.

If you have unlimited spend, especially in the right categories, they are attractive.

15K points for $7K spend plus another 28K points if you hit that 7K spend in a 4x Biz Gold category. Do it 5 times and you've earned 215K points.

yes but the same $20k spend also forms the $15k SUB spend. So i could pay $375 + $95 and then spend $4k on 4 employee cards and get 276k points (200 + 16 + 60)

Do not pay $95. The bonus applies to the $0 option.

I cant really take advantage of the 4x on Gold card in Aus. Not much spend on 4x cat. Mainly paying bills

I believe it’s $95 fee for all 5 cards, not each. Plus it looks like you can get an expense card for $0

I guess this is my answer to whether I will have enough in the Pay Over Time 0% to hit the SUB spend

Thanks for this, I was wondering the same thing!! $15k is better than I expected tbh.

These employee card mini SUBs are not always available, right? I tried a URL a few days ago, but the site said the offer wasn't available for me.

Just checking but I am thinking that the employees need to have ITIN or SSN to be valid?
I am trying to see if eligible but blank page for me

Correct. You get targeted for a period of time then it goes away. You might also be targeted for a lesser offer.

Add yourself as an employee (I've done it thousands of times), never confirm the card & do the spend within 60 days before they are auto deactivated.

I get the offer when logged in but regardless of what way I try and add employees cards I get error or blank pages. Will I still get the 15k points if I add via chat?
