American Express Business Gold Rewards Credit Card Offer Gives $250 Or Roundtrip Airfare

Posted on June 27, 2007

The American Express Business Gold Rewards Card is offering 25,000 membership rewards bonus points up front which is redeemable for a round trip airfare or $250 gift certificate. If you have a solid credit score and are not financing anything in the short term this is a pretty good deal. The card comes with a $125 annual fee that is waived for the first year. Although the card is for business, you can put your name as the business name and social security number for the Federal ID. The IRS sees that as a sole proprietorship and there is nothing wrong with it. Here is the details as per the American Express website:

Apply for the Business Gold Rewards Card and make a purchase by 12/31/07. Upon the Basic Cardmember’s first purchase, a one time bonus of 25,000 points can be earned toward the Basic Business Gold Rewards Cardmember’s Membership Rewards^®account and may appear as separate credits of 5,000 and 20,000 bonus points. The maximum 25,000 bonus points are available to first-time Basic Business Gold Rewards Cardmembers only; they are not available if you transfer an existing account. Welcome bonus points will be credited to your Membership Rewards account 6 to 8 weeks after your first purchase appears on your monthly billing statement. The bonus 25,000 Membership Rewards points may be redeemed for one domestic round-trip airline ticket.

The offer is good for a limited time and so if interested you may want to jump on it. Many others are blogging about this offer so feel free to check it out here as well:
