And right now, there are some highly lucrative — but less publicized — offers out there. We’re talking up to 150,000 American Express Membership Rewards points if you’re eligible.
Using TPG’s CardMatch tool, you can check to see if you’re prequalified for special, elevated offers available only to certain applicants.
For instance, you can find out if you’re prequalified to earn up to 150,000 points with The Platinum Card® from American Express after spending $8,000 on purchases in the first six months of card membership.
This proved to be too good an offer to pass up when I confirmed my eligibility through CardMatch in 2022: I earned 150,000 points within a few months, which helped me book award stays last year at resorts in Spain and Mexico.
TPG values 150,000 Amex points at around $3,000.
Using CardMatch, you can also check to see if you’re prequalified for an elevated offer of up to 90,000 points with the American Express® Gold Card after spending $6,000 on purchases in the first six months of account opening.
To check your eligibility for these offers, you’ll have to enter a bit of personal information into the CardMatch tool. However, this won’t have any impact on your credit, since it’s not a formal, “hard” inquiry. Plus, the tool keeps your personal data safe with end-to-end, 256-bit encryption.
