    Reports indicate it only works for the business cards (mine isn’t targeted though)

  2. Yankel

    I’m not.

    We’re sorry. This promotion is only open to invited Card Members.

  3. Sam

    mine isn’t either, such a great value of points but frugal when it comes to earning points

  4. yitzee

    my SPG business cards were targeted for 10k bonus

  5. MIMB

    how does one go about posting these deals on the forums? I wanted to do it but wasn’t sure if i start a new thread or what

  6. Miriam

    Would I check my SPG account to see if it’s targeted for a bonus?

  7. Rags94

    I was targeted, but not with the same award amounts… I got, earn 5000 after spending $5000 and an additional 5k for spending another $5k.

    My Starwood Business card was targeted, tnx Dan

  10. Daniel

    Can the spending be done on an AU ? It’s kinda unclear in the terms

  11. Joe S

    Only my bizz card was targeted, it has not been used in a few months because SPG value tanked. I will use it now for 10k

    Thank you Dan

  14. Chicago

    One out of four…………..

    Business card got it

  15. JF

    I was targeted. I am happy and not complaing, it is Strange though, I don’t understand why they would target me I spend approximately hundred thousand dollars a month. Why offer me a bonus?

  16. J

    @Dan: Dan, you wrote 10K points for $5K and 20K pionts for $10K. It’s actually half that unless there are cards targeted for the offer you stated (i.e. 2 points for every dollar)

  17. DC

    I don’t have a business card… And I wasn’t invited… 😩

  18. zanvel

    here is a quote of the fine print
    “Qualifying purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, balance transfers, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, or purchases of other CASH EQUIVALENTS”….
    does that take care of G.C spending…?

  19. Joe S

    @Dan: You wrote $5K for 10 or $10k for 20. Mine was half of that ($5k for 5 or $10k for 10).

  20. Joe S

    @Dan: Oh just saw that, so that’s including normal spend. Ehh, I guess it’s a good offer if you were going to use your card anyways. I have too many other cards to use for signup bonuses right now.

  21. Ben

    Got it on two biz cards; replenish my SPG pts after the two transfer to VA

  22. Jane

    Dan, anyway to get an account targeted?

  23. ldr

    Neither my husbands or my business accounts were targeted. Also noticed no other AMEX offers. Have they been discontinued?

  24. choochoo

    how is this different then spending 5k (without an invite) and receiving the points?

  25. AHB

    “Qualifying purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, balance transfers, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, or purchases of other CASH EQUIVALENTS”….

    @Dan does that mean serve wont count towards spending?

  26. lawboy

    Targeted for:

    You are now registered in the Starwood Preferred Guest® Business Credit Card Special Offer. Use your card now through 10/15/16 to earn an additional 5,000 Starpoints after you spend $5,000 on qualifying purchases*, and an additional 5,000 Starpoints after you spend an additional $5,000 on qualifying purchases, for a maximum of 10,000 Starpoints.

  27. yyk

    Got the offer on 2 out of my 3 SPG business cards.

  28. Suzy

    My business account is targeted and my personal SPG card is not.

  29. Laura

    I was targeted, but I’m not going to take the bait. Given the uncertainty surrounding Starpoints w/impending merger w/Marriott Rewards, I prefer to not incur the opportunity cost of losing out on the purchase of $5K worth of Visa GCS on my Chase Ink to get 5x URs. Since VISA GCs to MOs is not that easy for me, and since I would want to MS the offer, I’d rather stick with Chase and forgo this offer…

  30. Joel

    i was targeted, trying to understand the logic of that???

  31. AHB

    “Qualifying purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, balance transfers, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, or purchases of other CASH EQUIVALENTS”….

    @Dan serve should count towards spending goals, correct?
