Amex Gold 90K Welcome Offer

At ToP we always want to try to share the best deals and offers with you whenever we can. It is important to us that you get the best deal possible during your miles and points journey. The Amex Gold 90k welcome offer is one such instance. While the public, and affiliate link, offer is for just 60,000 Membership Rewards points we harvested some reader's personal referral links for the better 90,000 point offer. I'll give you the details on the offer and how to share your link below.

We will cycle through reader's links to try to make sure you always have one available to you. If one isn't working please let us know in the ToP Facebook Group. Also, if you have a 90K link of your own, and would like to share it, I'll give you details on how to do that below. Remember, this is a card that is best for people over Chase 5/24. It is not a card you get when starting out on this journey.

**The links in this article have been collected independently by Travel on Point(s). They are reader's personal referrals.

Update 4/4/24: We need your 90K referral links. Please submit below.

Amex Gold 90K Welcome Offer Details

Here are the details for the Amex Gold 90,000 Membership Rewards bonus offer:

• Earn 90,000 Membership Rewards® Points after you spend $6,000 on eligible purchases with your new Card within the first 6 months of Card Membership. 
• This card has an annual fee of $250 and it is NOT waived the first year.
• Reader Link

This is 30,000 points higher than the standard welcome offer of 60,000 points after $6,000 of spend. You can read our full review of the card here.

Application Rules

If you choose to apply, remember that Amex typically will not approve you for more than two Amex credit cards during a 90-day period. They also have a 10 card limit on the colored Membership Rewards earning cards (of which this is one). This includes personal and business cards. This is separate from the 5 card limit on credit cards.

Due to the new family rule, you should follow our application guidance found here. The order of Amex Membership Rewards applications now matters and you need to strategize what card to open and when! You are now ineligible for the welcome offer on this card if you have, or have had, any variety of the same card, the (now defunct) Premier Rewards Gold or any variety of the Amex Platinum.

Amex also has a once per lifetime welcome offer rule on each card. This is more like every 5 – 7 years in reality though, and not actually your lifetime. That timeline is based off of when you last held a card, not when you last earned a welcome offer on the product though. If you are ineligible for the welcome offer for any reason American Express will usually let you know that with a pop-up before the application is processed. You can cancel the application at this time with no hard pull.

Amex Gold Card Earning Structure

• 4x Membership Rewards® in the following categories
  • 4x at Restaurants, plus takeout and delivery in the U.S.
  • 4x at U.S. supermarkets on up to $25,000 per calendar year in purchases, then 1X.
• 3x  on travel booked directly with airlines and via the American Express® travel portal.
• 1x on all other eligible purchases.
• Reader Link

Amex Gold 90K Welcome Offer: ToP Thoughts

This Amex Gold 90K welcome offer is a great option for those over Chase 5/24. Also remember to be mindful of the Amex Gold family rule before applying. You may want to grab the Amex Green card first, and if you have already had the Amex Platinum then you may be out of luck all together.

If you pass all of those tests then enjoy your bonus points plus a card that has a great earning structure. Plus you get the plus of knowing that you helped out a ToP reader using their referral link. If you have one of your own then please share it with us. Just remember to follow the simple rules laid out above.
