Publicly Available vs. Targeted Offers

The offers above reflect the highest publicly available offers, but you might come across targeted offers that are even better. Tools like CardMatch can check for these by asking for some basic personal information and running a quick search to see if you qualify.

Targeted offers can also appear in your email, mailbox, or directly in your American Express account. It’s always worth keeping an eye out for these elevated opportunities, although there's no reliable way to predict when or where they'll appear.

Our Take

When applying for a credit card, it’s smart to weigh the current welcome offer against past offers for that card. Doing so can help you decide whether to apply now or hold off for something better.

Understanding when to apply, what makes a good offer, and what trends to watch can help shape your overall credit card strategy. With a clearer picture of American Express' offer history, you’ll be better equipped to know which ones are worth jumping on and when it might be best to wait.
