Should I pull the trigger on Marriott Bonvoy Business AMEX

Hey Everyone, 

 

I'm interested in this card as I plan to travel 5-6 times this year and maybe double that next year. For flight, I have 2 cards Delta Plat from Amex and AAdvantage from Citi. For Hotels just the Bonvoy Boundless from Chase. Accumulating points on personal spending is not working out and putting business transactions on personal cards will have my accountant screaming. 

 

I feel this card would be a really good fit for me. I'm not sure if my credit is strong enough for it, so I wanted to share my DP and see if yall can give me some guidance. 

 

Business S corp is 8 months old.

D&B 80 : 7 net 30 accounts reporting

EXP BIZ risk is 1:  2 net 30 accounts reporting

 

Personal scores jump up and down based on reported balances, 730-740 on experian (736 as of today)

 

From amex:

3/17/21 - applied for amex business amazon prime and approved for $3k

3/21/21 - applied for CLI on personal Delta plat, approved $1k-->$3k

 

I read somewhere not to apply or ask for cli during 90 days from approvals or cli requests, but not sure. 

 

Based on this, what yall say, pull the trigger or holster it until end of June.

Based on the information you've shared, it appears that you are still within the 90-day 'soft rule' to apply for another AmEx revolver, so as long as you haven't been approved for one on the personal side.  The CLI should play no bearing on getting approved, but it could influence the SL if AmEx feels you have enough exposure with your current revolvers.

 

Try and see how this pans out.
