Update 9/26/24: When we first attempted sharing these referrals in July, we had repeated issues with them erroring, so we gave up and defaulted back to the lower, 90K offer.
However, this offer is still hanging around on some folks’ accounts and we rarely give up easily, so we’re going to give it another shot. If you have a VERIFIED (please read below) 100K + 20% link, please share it with us using the Facebook link in this post. DO NOT leave it in the comments, it will be deleted. DO NOT share with us a link that you haven’t confirmed using the method below…just because it’s showing 100K for you on your computer in a couple of browsers doesn’t mean it will display that way for everyone.
Happy Hunting!

Not only did the Amex Gold card get a slew of new credits today, but there’s also a new referral offer out that awards 100,000 Membership Rewards points after meeting minimum spending requirements and gives 20% back at restaurants worldwide for 6 months (up to $100 back).
This offer DOES have Amex’s “once-in-a-lifetime” language, as well as the newly-increased annual fee of $325.
We’ll be collecting reader referral links for those who were targeted so we can share them with others on our Best Offers Page. The details on how to participate with your link (if you are targeted) are below.

We want your 100K offer referral links
Here at Frequent Miler, our Best Credit Card Offers page always links to the best available welcome offer, even if that’s not an affiliate link. The best offer for the Amex Gold card through affiliate channels is currently only 60,000 Membership Rewards points, that’s why you’ll see many other points and miles sites hawking that inferior version.
However, we always present the best offer for new applicants, even when it doesn’t benefit our site through affiliate commissions. We want to share the wealth by using readers’ referral links on the site. We will need reader links for the 100K offer.
If you’d like to have your referral link shared on the Best Offers page, here’s what you need to do:
Step 1: Check your referral link
Only some Gold card holders can refer to this new offers. We need reader links, but only those targeted to refer directly to this new offer. The best way to know if you are targeted is to log in to your Amex account and scroll to the bottom to click the link that says “refer a friend” (You can also find it here).
Then choose your Gold card from the menu at the top. That page will show what offer your friend will get when they use their link. If it says that your friend will receive 60,000 points after $6K in purchases in the first 6 months, you are not targeted to refer to this new best offer.
Note that even if you only see 60K there in your Amex login, it is still possible that your friend will click through your link and see a 100K offer sometimes. However, the link will not always populate the 100K offer unless your Amex login says that your friend will receive 100K points. We can only use links on our best offers page that always populate the 100K offer.
Step 2: Join the Frequent Miler Insiders Facebook group
If you’re already part of our Facebook group, you can skip this step. If you’re not a member though, you’ll need to join this group. Note that you’ll be asked a question or two (depending on if you try joining on mobile or desktop) to ensure you’re not a bot. Please answer that question(s), otherwise you won’t get admitted to the group in order to do step 3.
Step 3: Share your link on the dedicated thread
We have a dedicated thread set up to share your 100K link, so please only share your referral links here as a reply to the first comment. We’ll then work our way through the links for as long as this increased offer is only available via referrals. We will rotate through links there regularly to try to give as many readers as possible a chance at picking up a referral bonus.
Please don’t share your referral link as an individual post in the group as it’ll just get deleted. Please also don’t share a non-100K referral link as that’ll get deleted too.
Comments on the blog with links automatically get caught in our spam filter and will not post. Instead, the above Facebook thread is the only place we’ll be accepting referral links (sorry if you’re not on Facebook).
