Thanks for sharing!  Do you know how to confirm if you are still eligible to receive the bonus?  I've already done the delta cards so I don't think I can do them again?  But man I would love to find a way....!

amex cards have "lifetime" clauses which usually equates to 7 years.  the only way i know around this is a targetted mailer from them usually allows you to get it still.

If you have already gotten the bonus on the personal card, you are still eligible to receive the bonus on the business card! If you have any type of side hustle at all (Uber, rentals, selling on eBay, you name it), you can qualify for a business card with American Express - just BE HONEST about your business income, even if it's currently zero. AmEx will use your personal income and credit score to approve you for the card, however their business cards don't show up on your personal credit score - great if you're trying for a Chase card but are close to their 5/24 rule! You can use the link below to receive 50,000 miles after $2k spend in 3 months, plus an additional 10,000 miles after an additional $1k spend in the first 6 months. You get the same benefits as the personal card (including the $50 statement credit). I use the statement credit to buy $50 gift cards on Delta that I'll use after the miles run out - the gift cards don't expire, either. Sign yourself and your SO up (I did!), and you'll have 120,000 miles to get you anywhere you need to go. The public offer ends November 8th, but using my referral link you have until January 31, 2018 to apply. Full disclaimer, I will receive 10,000 bonus miles for each approved referral (up to 55,000/year) - feel free to apply and post your own referral link below!

Enjoy, and happy travels!

The offer I'm linking to is the Gold - this is the best you'll see on it. You're right on the Platinum, I have seen it as high as 100k - no guarantees it will go back that high, though. It also has a $175(?) annual fee, just make sure you factor that in when applying.

can you get miles from both spouses on the same SkyMiles account?
I've gotten this bonus in the past, but each one was applied to the owner's account. could not figure out how to merge the 2

you dont merge them you could each get 60k miles from both the business and personal card.  I shared my gold business link as well its pretty great deal for the gold card right now.

I set my AmEx cards up to both feed into the same Delta account, so I don't have to worry about trying to transfer points. American Airlines didn't allow that, so we're stuck with each of us having accounts.
