Let's say that a Centurion member needed the money enough to accept your offer, surely you would expect to offer a deposit/bond of the maximum amount of spend plus the further amount equal to the average spend from the statement date until the payment date.
Since your Supp. card would create considerable additional accounting plus incur bank transaction fees and require a part of the monthly statement to be sent to you each month, receive your funds, and generally require additional attention, how much are you prepared to offer? If I was prepared to deal with the hassle, I would expect at least $1000 a month as remuneration, plus 150% of the maximum monthly spend as a bond, plus the cost of drawing up the legal paperwork. Obviously I would earn MR points on your spend, and you would not earn any points. Also, most of the better benefits are only offered to the primary cardmember or one cardmember, so you would not receive these.
This means having a Cent card would cost you $12k a year plus you would not be earning an income on your $75k.
Surely a Platinum card would net you a better deal. Is this really worth the hassle?
