Guru’s Wrap-Up
This Amex Business Gold 70K upgrade offer is a decent opportunity to earn more points. There’s no hard pull when upgrading and you can also receive the upgrade bonus even if you’ve had the card previously. Just keep in mind that you need to spend $10,000 within three months, which is not easy to do.
It’s important to note that you shouldn’t take this offer if you have never had this card in the past. By taking this offer you would become ineligible for the signup bonus. And currently that bonus is huge, at 200,000 Membership Rewards points.
