Third-Party
American Express is offering an increased sign up bonus of 450,000 Membership Rewards when you sign up via a select number of Amex partners such as Flight Hacks.
The Amex Platinum Business Card is definitely not for everyone and clocks in with a hefty annual fee of $1750. However, considering the 450k sign up bonus, it’s a very good deal for small to medium business owners, especially in the first year.
- Promo runs from: 2nd August – 7th September 2022
What’s 450k Worth?
When redeemed for charges, 450k translates into $2,250
Converted from membership rewards to airline miles, you will get 225,000 Qantas Points, KrisFlyer Miles, AsiaMiles etc.
When redeemed for frequent flyer miles, you could get the following redemptions with this sign-up bonus:
- 130,500 KrisFlyer Miles: Sydney/Melbourne/Brisbane/Adelaide to Europe one way in business class + taxes.
- 85,000 AsiaMiles: Sydney to L.A. with Fiji Airways in business class + taxes
