Here are a few things worth noting regarding American Express credit card applications:

• Amex limits you to a maximum of 5 credit cards and 10 charge cards.
• There’s normally no hard pull when you apply for a new Amex card and are not approved.
• If you already have an Amex card, then applying for more Amex cards will normally not result in a hard pull.
• You are not eligible to receive a welcome bonus on a card you’ve held in the past. This is known as the lifetime rule, but that usually applies to cards you’ve had in the last 5-7 year. Here’s how to check what cards you’ve had in that timeframe.
• American Express will let you know during the application process if you are not eligible for the welcome bonus.
• 90 Day Rule: You can get up to two new cards every 90. This rule excludes to Pay Over Time cards.
