I have the old Biz Gold Rewards card. If I close it, am I still eligible for the welcome bonus?

Gold Card Personal vs Business (NO GRUBHUB)
I thought my Amex Gold Business had grubhub like my sons personal gold card. I don't know if this benefit was removed or never there and I just thought they were the same. If it is true, I have no use that I can think of for a business gold card. Ideas or thoughts?

Can you have two of these cards? I’m well past $300k spending on shipping and internet advertising. Currently I split it between this card and the Chase Ink card that earns 3X. I have a second legitimate business entity. It’s basically just a pass thru LLC that holds the real estate but it is a “business”.

Yes I wouldn’t expect another sign up bonus but I’m more concerned about getting another $150K to spend at 4X points.

This is the first cycle with the new rewards refresh on my business gold card. Went to check MR earning and none of my purchases this cycle (back to Nov. 6th) show the amount of points earned when I click on the transaction. Also, they don't show up on pending if I go to "Rewards" and then "Points Summary". I see all my pending points from my personal Amex cards there, but not from my business card. Is anyone else having this same issue with their Business Gold card?

I just signed up for this card, that included a $150 statement credit for shipping.
I spent $150 at the post office on Mar 16th.
When will the $150 credit post for shipping?
With my Biz PLT card the temporary $20 monthly shipping credits posted within 48hours.

Found the answer under the T&C:
Please allow 8-12 weeks after the eligible select U.S. advertising in select media or U.S shipping purchase is charged to your Card Account for statement credit(s) to be posted to the Account.
