Issuer Rules & Policies
PENDING

Rules: Eligibility: Applicants must be 18+ years old, a US resident, possess a valid SSN or ITIN, and have a good to excellent credit history. Welcome Bonus Rule: One welcome bonus per card per lifetime. Application Rules: Max 1 credit card approval per 5 days, and max 2 credit card approvals per 90 days. American Express may also present a 'pop-up' warning during application if you are deemed ineligible for the welcome bonus based on your past card history with Amex.

Max Cards Per Issuer: 5

Min Spend Interval: 3 months

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Manufactured spending, high cumulative credit limit, abuse of return policies, excessive credit cycling, sudden drastic changes in spending patterns, not paying on time, applying for too much credit too quickly (beyond 2/90 rules), not meeting minimum spend on bonuses, frequent product changes, or any activity deemed as gaming the system.

Cliff Effect Rules: For the Amex Everyday Preferred, the primary bonus restriction is the 'one welcome bonus per card per lifetime' rule. While Amex has broader 'family rules' for some premium charge cards (e.g., Platinum, Gold), the Everyday Preferred's bonus eligibility is predominantly governed by its individual lifetime rule, meaning once you've received a bonus for this specific card, you are generally ineligible for it again.
