Amex Business Platinum

[williewonka]

I was paying my personal amex online a few minutes ago and noticed that in the message box they say I am am pre-approved for the Business Platinum card. $400 for the first card etc...I've only been a amex cardholder for about 9 months. I do have pretty ggod scores, but was under the impression that you had to be a member for longer than that and had to have extraordinary history, and scores. Anybody have any insight? When I clicked on the link it did not ask for much info at all, no social etc...though they already have that and more.

once you have good history with amex, they pretty much love to give you more cards, especially charge cards... but unless you do tons of travel I would just get the gold card, much less AF and same benifits minus travel stuff.

Amex Platinum cards are not nearly as hard to get as they once were.  I can't speak for the business versions, but you can get a personal Platinum charge card with scores in the high 600s.
