Rewards
The best Amex Business Gold offer we found in September 2023 was 110K points. That offer has ended, so check the current bonus before you apply.
Challenge Updates
We hit $96.3K of our $100,000 goal in four months, and Bilt Rent Day (10K points for $1.6K a month) covers the rest. Likely our last 2023 update.
In September 2023 the top Amex Business Platinum offer we tracked was 170K points. It has since ended, so look up today's bonus first.
Manufactured Spending
In 2023 you could buy Stockpile gift cards with a Visa gift card, redeem them for stock, and cash out. Stockpile shut down in April 2026.
Banking Bonuses
Some credit unions let you fund a CD with a credit card, and you can do it again each time one matures. Limits have dropped, so we updated the list.
Pay a credit union "bill" with Western Union at Walgreens, using several gift cards for one $4.99 fee. Walgreens may block gift cards now, so test small.
