Card holder. They care more about spending categories then they do spend itself. Think about it. Who would you issue it to? Someone who travels and stays at luxery hotels or someone who buys gas for their fleet of trucks and office supplies. They want the card seen in ideal places.

This makes sense.

250k for a single cardholder.  Man, that's a lot of spending in a single year!

It is, but if you have a small business and run everything through it it may work out.

Min is 250K. They care more about history then spend. Told me you can spend 7 figures but if you dont have the history, dont expect an invite. 

Invites are not currently being sent... You could always ask for a card though.  1-877-877-0987

For me, although I want the card, I'm still trying to justify it.it has to be more than status. I have at least 10 friends with Centurion cards. When we go out, my Platinum card pays for dinner just like theirs. Lol

So your plastic does the same thing their metal do?

Do you guys know if it's per cardholder, or the entire firm?

Our firm spends total in excess of 250k per year, but each of us is less.  Do they base the criteria on aggregate spending of all cardmembers, or on an individual basis?

I agree with you Tanner. I'm in the music business. I stay in all of the best hotels around the world, first class flights, I dine at some of the best restaurants, high credit score, and clean history. I am definitely a candidate. I'm really trying to justify all of the annual fees I'm currently paying and it got me wondering If I really want a black card.

What ever happened to the JP Morgan Palladium card? Is it still exclusive to JP Morgan private banking clients?

I would qualify for an invite if it was 250K a year as I do that on my business AMEX alone, and have for many, many years.  There is no way in H E L L that I would ever pay 5K or 2.5K or whatever to have some stupid metal credit card if I ever had an invitation.  It's a total vanity play, isn't tax deductible, and I'd rather keep the money.

You fly 75 flights on Delta? If you do not have status and check a bag everytime thats 3750 alone. 25 * 75 * 2 for each way.

I'm Diamond on Delta so I pay no check baggage fees.

I heard you have to have to be a client and possess a $30+ million portfolio .

Everyone has their own opinion. I would accept the card as ive already run the numbers and came out positive. I would rather tie it to platnium when traveling. I dont like the attention.

If it's through your business, then it would be tax deductible, wouldn't it?  However, I can see the IRS rolling their eyes during an audit.
