Update 3/10/24: This is showing up in incognito mode people again. Requires $15,000 in spend. Some people have got it to load by waiting for the offer to time out and then refreshing others have gotten it by just visiting directly from Google. There was an actual direct link available for a few days but didn’t post due to risk of shutdown. Should be fine if you can get it to show naturally.
Update 11/14/22: There is another direct link available, this time with an additional 10,000 authorized user bonus. I’d recommend reading the caution below before using this link.
Update 7/8/22: There is now a direct link to this offer. I’d exercise extreme caution using this link as American Express has been known to shut down accounts for using these types of links in the past. Hat tip to US Credit Card Guide
Update 6/20/22: FM reports that the calling in method that works for the American Express Business Gold 180k-190k offer also works for this offer (call 855-531-3491 and reject the first offer). Can also get an additional 10,000 points by adding an additional cardholder and spending $1,000+ on that card.

Our Verdict
We’ve seen a lot of big offers for the Business Platinum card lately and some offers without any lifetime language. Unfortunately this offer is only sent out via snail mail at the moment.
