From now for just a few weeks you can earn 35,000 Starwood points on both the AMEX personal and small business cards when you sign-up and meet the minimum spending requirements. Starwood points are highly valuable because they’re not as diluted as other programs and are hard to earn apart from staying at Starwood hotels. This is the highest offer ever for the Starwood Preferred Guest American Express Card!
Apply here before March 30, 2016, to earn the increased bonus on both cards. You’ll get:
- 35,000 Starwood points after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the 1st 3 months of opening your account (personal card), OR
- 35,000 Starwood points after you spend $5,000 on purchases in the 1st 3 months of opening your account (small business card)
- 2 points per $1 you spend at Starwood hotels (includes Aloft, Design Hotels, Element, Four Points, Le Meridien, Sheraton, St Regis, The Luxury Collection, Tribute Portfolio, Westin and W brand hotels)
- 1 Starwood point per $1 you spend on everything else
- Unlimited use of Boingo Wi-Fi hotspots (excluding in-flight)
- For small business cardholders, access to Sheraton Club lounges (free breakfast and hors d’oeuvres) for cardholder and 1 guest staying in the same room (3rd-party bookings such as Orbitz or Hotwire are excluded).
- 2 stay credits or 5 night credits toward Starwood Elite Status
- $95 annual fee, waived for the 1st year
- No foreign transaction fees

American Express has been working hard this year to send us huge savings through free statement credits when we spend with them. Most of these we can get through our sign-in but some you can get on multiple cards through Twitter. If you have not used American Express offers you need to do it before they figure out how much money they are losing on it. We have made money on some of them and saved huge on others.
Amazon is on the list probably because Chase and Discover Card are both offering 5% back this Christmas season although AMEX has a better off with a $15 credit on a $60 spend. You can just buy a gift card and use it for January or after the quarterly 5% bonus from Chase and Discover is over.
Amazon.com: Spend $60+, get a $15 statement credit. Expires 12/31/2015. Blog Post
Tip: Purchase a $60 gift card to trigger the statement credit. You can purchase Amazon gift cards here.
