The Latest Corporate Credit Card Offer

Today I received a credit card offer for American Express Platinum Business.  Usually, when you read the fine print, American Express has some stiff annual fees, so it’s usually a fairly quick read.

Glancing over it though, I noticed that there are no annual fees associated with the platinum business card.  In addition, they are offering 5% cash back on all my business purchases, not just a finite amount.  Also included is a $50 statement credit, and 0% introductory APR on purchases for the first six months.  The APR rises to prime +2.99% after that, which is currently a total of 10.24%.  A bit steep compared to the Advanta Card I previously wrote about.

I like the offer, but I’m still not crazy about the card.  Some places still don’t take American Express, and while the offer is attractive, I really don’t need any more business credit at this time.  I don’t know that I need another pull on my credit either, so I’ll pass for now.
