The once-in-a-lifetime policy, which is the subject of this thread, does not apply to business cards. However, the Business Gold Rewards offer includes this exclusion:
Welcome bonus offer not available to applicants who have or have had this product within the last 12 months.
American Express considers you, the individual, to be the applicant, and a personal guarantee is automatic. You can see this in the application language:
By submitting this application, you, as an individual and the Authorizing Officer of the Company, (a) are requesting us to open an Account in the name of the Company, (b) are requesting that we issue Card(s) as you direct, (c) are agreeing to be jointly and severally liable with the Company for all charges to the account, and (d) are REPRESENTING THAT ALL CARD(S) ISSUED ON THE ACCOUNT WILL ONLY BE USED FOR COMMERCIAL OR BUSINESS PURPOSES. Only qualified individuals 18 or over may be approved for a Card Account. This offer is available to US Residents.
It is improbable that you will receive a new account bonus for more than account, otherwise any of us could invent an additional business identity anytime we fancied another bonus.
