Employee Card Bonuses<\/h4>\n

First, let\u2019s start with a bit of sad news: The various American Express sky-high bonus offers for 1.98 million Membership Rewards, $19,800 in statement credits or, 495,000 Delta SkyMiles on business cards<\/s><\/a> (EDIT: the 495,000 SkyMiles offer still exists according to multiple sources!)<\/em> for adding 99 employees all seem to be nerfed as badly as Russia\u2019s ability to trade with US Dollars<\/a>. The small bright side is that the offers still exist, but are limited to a bonus for up to 5 employee cards as of around Monday.<\/p>\n

(In case you missed it and don\u2019t know what the hell I\u2019m talking about, from fall of last year<\/a> all the way up to the past weekend you could call American Express\u2019s customer service team for your Membership Rewards earning or co-brand business cards and ask, \u201care there any spend offers for adding employees to this card account?\u201d The answer was almost always yes, and the offer was almost always a per-employee card bonus for up to 99 cards.)<\/p>\n

Employee Card AmEx Offers<\/h4>\n

Now let\u2019s parlay that into some happy news for those of us with stacks of employee cards on our desks: Employee cards can have their own American Express online account, and American Express offers like the current $80 off of $200 at JetBlue<\/a> offer exist on employee accounts too. They\u2019re treated as completely separate from the main account\u2019s offers as long as the employee cardholder is a different person than the main accountholder.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019re sad that you\u2019ve burned through the employee card bonanza, consider setting up online profiles for each employee and maximizing your offers as a small morale booster. (Just think of all the blue colored corn chips<\/a> you could eat with 99 JetBlue $80 discount offers. Also, consider your heart and probably don\u2019t actually eat all of those chips.)<\/p>\n
