Thanks. This worked. I saw a 25,000 offer the first few times then 50,000.
I will try for the 75,000 in the morning.

Congrats.

For those unable to get the offer online, I've found way better success using incognito or private viewing on Chrome, IE, and FF going to americanexpress.com then clicking onto Small Business Cards links. The offer will then be displayed. Each time you load will give you a different offer. This was how I got the offer for my SO and myself after 10-20 attempts each.

Good luck!

    Terms and limitations apply.2 3X and 2X apply to purchases up to $100,000 in each of the 5 industry categories per year (Computer Hardware, Software, and Cloud Computing is a single category).
It seems you cannot MS to meet the spend for this one. I presume level 3 processing?

Eligible purchases are purchases for goods and services minus returns and other credits. Eligible purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, balance transfers, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, or purchases of other cash equivalents. Additional terms and restrictions apply.
Merchants are assigned codes based on what they primarily sell. A purchase will not earn additional points if the merchant's code is not eligible. Purchases made through third-parties (including resellers and online marketplaces) or through a third-party payment account will not earn additional points. A purchase may not earn additional points if the merchant submits the purchase using a mobile or wireless card reader or if you use a mobile or digital wallet.

I have been refreshing like you wouldn't believe trying to get the offer. I fear my mouse button will give out soon. I'll report back to let you guys know what I get if/when I get it!

Anyone been able to get their rewards through MS? I saw someone mention the terms above, but was curious if they were enforcing that clause? If so, I've got some work to do as my AGC purchases aren't gonna cut it

Unless it's changed, I recall reading many data points that Amex has always counted AGC purchases for minimum spends and rewards.

Whew very good news!
Confirmed that my AGC orders for Gold Biz card counts towards spend/bonus. Strange though that the bonus points already posted even though my statement hasn't closed yet - with the just finished spend on the AGC order.

MG - how did you confirm AGC count towards bonus?

I can confirm this at least so far. I've reached by Min spending limit and the points are showing in pending. Guess I won't know for sure until the next statement closes. All of my spending was AGC.

I can confirm because of the $10K spend required, I did an AGC order of $5K then $1K of regular RedBird CC load and finally just last week did another AGC order of $5K. Membership Rewards just posted 81,636 points and I only have an older PRG Member Rewards card that I haven't done much spend in a while.

MJ - You loaded RedB first, and then purchased AmGC with RedB. Good to know! What about buying directly with AmGC? I see g-rebel did the direct route, but his are pending. Hopefully they post and stay.

No. In this order:
1. Ordered $5K AGC (using Gold Biz) and then loaded/liquidated with RB.
2. Loaded $1K on Gold Biz CC directly to RB.
3. Final order of $5K AGC (using Gold Biz) and loaded/liquidated with RB.
4. MR bonus and spend points posted before statement even closed.

Yes, worked perfectly fine then and no clawbacks. Many have done this.

But now...AGCs are bust with no cash back for any denominations over $200. Hope that shit goes back to "normal".

Yeah, I saw the Extrabux portal posting from PointChaser and we're all still waiting for more data points if they'll pay out or not. Good luck to you!

Is the offer officially dead? My 12 months since I last had the Biz Gold is coming up and I'd like to apply when I can.

I was able to pull up the link but it requires logging in to apply. My wife's account didn't work but mine did, problem is she is the one with the business...

I had no luck getting 75k offer, went for the 50k even though most times the 25k offer was the only one popping up.

Got approved for the 75K BRG this last February. I now have another 75K BRG offer on my online account without any prior signup bonus restrictions. Do I need to cancel the BRG I just got and then apply or can I have two?

FYI, someone on FT mentioned getting a 100k AmEx Gold offer. I would be willing to pay someone for such a mailer/code if it's transferable.
