American Express Membership Rewards program is a fantastic program that allows you to do a lot of things, but most importantly transfer your points to dozens of airline and hotel partners. Good 50,000-point offers are not too rare for this program–what rare is a tiny $1,000 spend requirement: they usually want you to spend $5-10K in order to get this bonus. If you want it, I suggest acting quickly, because the offer won’t stay long. The offer worked for me at 10:45 PM Eastern, but unfortunately I’m not eligible since I received the Platinum card just 1.5 months ago. If you don’t see the offer, try using Incognito option in Chrome, or In-Private in Explorer.
1. Go here: http://www.creditcards.com/cardmatch
2. Enter your name and address; even though it is a legit site, you don’t have to enter your social if you’re paranoid (just kidding, it’s OK to be paranoid).
3. They will display the list of available offers on the next page. If you see the offer for an American Express® Premier Rewards Gold Card with a 50,000 points bonus AND if you’re eligible (see the T&C below) grab it and don’t think twice.
