AMEX Referral Cap

TheAuthorizedUser — Fri, 26 Feb 2021 21:24:11 GMT

I know that AMEX states that you can get up to 55,000 MR points per "calendar" year.

1. Does "calendar" year mean Jan 1st of each year?

2. Is the 55,000 MR per card or per referrer/existing member?

3. Does anyone know of any good methods to keep track of where one may stand with referral bonus total?

Thank you for your insight 👍

1. Yes

2. Per card

3. Check your reward history on site, or excel sheet, or customer service

1) no clue

2) i assume its per member

3)you should know by whom you referred and if they were approved. Just count lol.

Word of caution, like anything good with Amex, do it too much and they might not like it. Drawing excessive eyes on ones account might not be good for future Amex endeavers. Imo

The referral bonuses are per card. And the best way to track is via your rewards history.

Best advice, NEVER self refer!
