Not for the City AA Business.

Create a name - "Silverfalls Points Systems" - and be creative with the rest of it (within reason)

Just applied and got an approval!! WOOHOO!!! I wonder how long it will take for the card to be mailed to me?

Also, does this promo take over the 10k initial signup bonus and then 15k bonus for spending that in x time?

Wonder if they are doing this in response to the much anticipated chase Hyatt Visa? Guess we'll know if that card comes out with 30k gold passport point bonus.

I did the personal card, the landing page states 30k miles. I believe the only reason everyone is focused on business cards is because they already carry the personal card...

Very interested in signing up for this card in my wife’s account, but she is not a frequent traveller. I travel a lot for my business. But I just got approved for Costco Amex card, which is also good for traveller like me. Is there any problem if I am not the primary card holder? Advantages and disadvantages if any if I am the add on card holder? Thanks.
The other reason to not go as primary card holder is because we are buying a new home.

Two questions which don't seem to have been quite answered upthread:

1. If I currently have the personal card, I can apply for the business card? I have never had the business card.
2. Also, if a family member has never had a SPG Amex, can they apply for BOTH the biz and the personal card?

With the DL AX card, AX would give you the difference over the sign on bonus you got before. Does anyone know if this will work for this card? If so, that would be an additional 20K points for someone who took the 10K sign on bonus, no longer has the card but did have it within the past 2 years. I suppose it's worth a try to find out.
