Sometimes, you get an offer you just can't refuse — even if it means letting go of one of your favorite cards.
That's what happened to me a few weeks ago as I scoured the internet for a high welcome offer on the refreshed American Express Platinum Card®. Everything about the card's new benefits excited me — from its lucrative Resy credit to an enhanced digital entertainment credit and expansive airport lounge access.
The Amex Platinum's welcome offer is targeted and personalized. New cardmembers can find out their offer and see if they may be eligible for as high as 175,000 bonus points after spending $8,000 on purchases in the first six months of card membership. Welcome offers vary, and you may not be eligible for one.
