AMEX Blue Business Cash questions

I recently got an Amex Business Prime card back in March 2022. It's my only card with Amex. My scores are about 750. I noticed the welcome offer for the Blue Cash card is $500 statement credits but when I log into my account it changes to $250.

 

Is 4 months too early to apply for another business card with Amex? Why would the welcome offer be different? I guess I was looking to apply for this card when they are offering their best bonus offer.

 

Thanks!!

1.  No 4 months is not too soon. It's fine.

 

2.  I think you're right to hold out for the best SUB offer. Amex is famous for switching them around constantly. Sometimes it says "this offer may not be available after you leave this screen". So I would keep poking around until the $500 pops up. Maybe try "incognito" mode and see what that turns up.  Maybe one of the Amex experts can tell you how to trigger the better SUB offer. Maybe DoctorOfCredit.com has something on BBC SUB's.

 

BTW it's a great card, up to the first 50k in annual spend.

@John00 I have 3 Amex cards and actually opened the 2 personal cards within the same month and that was in 2021. This year (2022), I applied and was approved for the Amex Business Platinum which the relationship started out a bit shakey but has been fine since I learned how the charge card actually works!!!
