ABN, ACN, or registered Business Entity Name, and GST registration, and minimum $75,000 revenue required. Application requirements.

Just received an email about this offer that's back until the 30th May 2023. Would've applied for this myself if I hadn't applied for the Qantas Amex recently.

Stack it with this deal for a total of 190k bonus velocity points.

Note: Card Members who currently hold or who have previously held any other Card product issued by American Express Australia Limited in the preceding 18-month period are ineligible for this offer.

    Yeah, it's time to cancel my AMEX card to start the 18month waiting

    • abs898 on 10/03/2023 - 11:33

      SAME!
      Just waiting for my upcoming international trip and then it's chop chop.

  • Tock on 10/03/2023 - 11:24

    18 months! I must have missed the change from 12 months. Ouch.

    • abs898 on 10/03/2023 - 11:33

      Yeah it's been 18 for a while now.

          I got an AMEX Ultimate twice with bonus points after a 12 months in both 2021 and 2022 so I don't think that is accurate…

    I need to start a business.

    Does the business need an income?

    • spiff on 10/03/2023 - 11:47

      Need to be registered for GST so generally 75k income requirement

      • maverick1 on 10/03/2023 - 12:01

        Being registered for GST and having an ABN are two different things. You can register a business i.e. get an ABN without having the need to register for GST if your annual sales is under $75k.

          I know they're different…. I'm saying the requirement for this card is that you need to be registered for GST. And generally the requirement to register for GST is to have a business with 75k turnover.

            @spiff: The requirement for a 75k turnover is to be registered for GST. You can be register for GST without any turnover.

    Do David Jones cards count as being issued by Amex?

    • droodle on 10/03/2023 - 11:55

      unfortunately - they don't exist anymore :(

      First paragraph dude, c’mon.

  • ldt on 10/03/2023 - 12:23

    This is a great deal. I'm only just approaching 12 months since I closed my last Amex Card.

  • lucyr on 10/03/2023 - 12:26

    If you have a personal Amex would you qualify for this if you open it under your business?

    • dsar on 10/03/2023 - 12:52

      No

    • maverick1 on 10/03/2023 - 13:20

      If you keen for a biz card, Westpac has a great offer, that deal hasn't posted here I think.

  • t0087669 on 10/03/2023 - 13:37

    Is there a way to find out how long has it been since my las AMEX card?

    • arcticmonkey on 10/03/2023 - 14:13

      Call the offshore Amex call centre and hope you can understand them

    • ck009 on 10/03/2023 - 16:13

      If you have an account with the credit score or credit report providers (like creditsimple. creditsavvy etc etc) you can see the open and close dates of your card/loan accounts.

    • puffinfresh on 12/03/2023 - 20:40

      Check your old emails

  • sii on 20/03/2023 - 18:04

    who applied previously, how long does amex generally take after applying for this?

      My partner applied. Instant approval. Didn't get asked for additional docs (not sure if that's standard for Amex). Got the card in roughly a week

  • palmplex on 13/04/2023 - 11:36

    Just got a retail Amex Velocity card. Very disappointed in the complimentary overseas travel insurance compared to ANZ or Westpac.

    Amex dont have any Rental Car Excess cover unlike Westpac and ANZ. And for Amex health travel cover they don't allow you to upgrade the policy to cover existing conditions like others. Is there any upside to Amex travel insurance, ? I'm going back to activating cover with ANZ and Westpac . I haven't looked at Comm Bank Ultimate Cover yet.

  • GeneralSkunk on 05/05/2023 - 17:06

    I'm looking to get this card (I actually came upon it on Pointhacks). I've normally avoided Amex due to lack of acceptance but I have a new business and will be doing some travelling so it seems to look pretty good for me. I also am a Virgin traveller, not Qantas. This card offers a 12-mth Tier 2 upgrade for Virgin Business Flyer which means gold status and hence lounge access.

    Can anyone comment on the acceptance of Amex? I haven't had one in about 12 years.

  • ty123 on 11/05/2023 - 20:54

    Applied this morning and was immediately accepted (kind of surprised me that it didn't ask for any additional details other than looking up my ABN). Card should be here within a week. I've actually found AMEX to be the easiest to deal with on applications.
