Does AMEX 3x CLI work with Costco True Earnings?

I am thinking of trying for the 3x CLI for my Amex but I realize the Costco True Earnings card is not really a regular Amex card. Does anyone know if they behave the same with respect to the 3x CLI?

You can request a CLI @61 days with the AMEX TE card. I request mine, was declined 3x amount but was countered with a reasonable increase. I think my denial was more due my income and thin file.

TE is a 'real' Amex and is eligible for 3x Cli.

Okay good to hear. I just mean in respect to a lot of the promotional AMEX offers, Costco card does not qualify (ie spend 15$ at Panera and get 5$ statement credit, etc) So I was unsure with respect to the 3x CLI.

 

Thank you all

It does qualify for some of their offers. Last month I was able to use the spend $75 get $25 off from Amazon.

Not sure what you mean.  It's issued by Centurion Bank so the 3X CLI applies.

It qualifies for offers as well.  I currently have 6 available for my TE.  In any case, the offers aren't relevant to the 3X CLI.
