The 75k bonus requires spending on the card. Depending on your situation, you might get better value spending it elsewhere.
Both Chase and AmEx business cards offer 75K bonus points with $3K spend within 3 months, and the same 35K-point free-night certificate upon renewal after one year.
The annual fees are $95 for Chase and $125 for the AmEx business card. Why would anyone select AmEx?
