The American Express Platinum Card is a fantastic travel credit card, and getting a 150K Membership Rewards points welcome offer makes it even better in that first year! Amex points are extremely valuable in the travel credit card game, especially because the Amex transfer partners give you so many awesome ways to get creative when putting together an itinerary.
However, the Amex Platinum 150K offer is usually TARGETED, meaning not everyone will see it all the time.
So, here are 5 TRICKS you can use to increase your odds of getting that 150K offer to show up before you apply.
1. CardMatch™ - this is a great tool to check for higher credit card signup bonuses, targeted offers, and elevated signup bonuses that may not be available to the public. The Amex Platinum 150K offer has been known to show up here.
2. Referral Links, especially via private / incognito browser windows. There’s an insane offer for the Amex Platinum Card that is to earn 150K Membership Rewards points PLUS a $200 statement credit after meeting spending requirements, and it’s only available right now via referral links (see above) through 6.07.2023.
3. Private / Incognito Browser Window, directly via Amex’s website. When you clear your browser history, cookies, etc., it makes it look like it’s your first time going to the American Express website to apply for an Amex credit card. This may increase your chances of seeing higher welcome offers for the Amex Platinum Card, Amex Gold Card, and others.
4. Targeted Offers In Your Amex Account. Log into your American Express account and look around the dashboard, keeping an eye out for banners at the top or side, as well as browsing through the Amex Offers & Benefits section a bit further down.
5. Targeted Mailers. Before throwing out your junk mail, look for physical mailers from Amex with the 150K welcome offer!

Application was accepted, and didn't even receive a hard inquiry for applying👍.

Thankfully, I was targeted with the 150K offer last October. I accepted it and so glad I did. It’s already brought a ton of value in the offers and we’ve already used the fine hotels and resorts for a week and stay in NYC. Since then, I’ve also got the blue business plus and the Delta business reserve card and a happy to be back in the Amex ecosystem again. And just last week, while on a production I was shooting I was able to visit both of the AMEX centurion lounge, and the Delta sky club in JFK and that was amazing!

Hi Jordan - you can add a 'Gold Card' authorized user to a primary Platinum Card account, but that AU Gold Card _does not_ function like the regular Gold card. It will have the same rewards structure as the Platinum Card (5X Flights, 5X Prepaid Hotels, 1X Other) and will not have the $120 Dining Credit or the $120 Uber Cash benefit. Here's a link to another video with more info: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aXl9mauPY6evn7g.html

If you can find an offer that _does not have those terms,_ then it can be possible to get another Platinum Card w/ a bonus.
