Issuer Rules & Policies
PENDING

Rules: Applicants for the Blue Cash Everyday card must be 18 years or older, a US resident with a valid SSN or ITIN, and possess a good to excellent credit history. American Express strictly enforces a 'one welcome bonus per card per lifetime' rule, meaning you are eligible for the welcome offer for the Blue Cash Everyday card only once. Application velocity rules include a maximum of 2 credit card approvals within a 90-day period, and generally, no more than 1 credit card approval within a 5-day period. Amex may also consider overall credit exposure and recent application history across all Amex products.

Max Cards Per Issuer: 5

Min Spend Interval: 6 months

Shutdown Risk Triggers: Manufactured spending, high cumulative credit limit across Amex products, gaming welcome bonuses (e.g., applying for the same card too frequently, closing and reopening for bonuses), excessive returns, unusual spending patterns inconsistent with declared income, not using the card for organic spend, defaulting on other Amex products, or engaging in activities deemed abusive of the card's terms and conditions.

Cliff Effect Rules: The primary 'cliff effect' for American Express is the 'one welcome bonus per card per lifetime' rule, which prevents earning a bonus on the Blue Cash Everyday card if you have ever received a bonus for this specific product before. While there isn't a direct 'cliff' preventing a bonus on Blue Cash Preferred if you've had Everyday (or vice-versa, unless specific offer terms state otherwise), the lifetime rule is strictly enforced per unique product.

Holiday Promos: American Express frequently runs general spending offers and targeted promotions, especially during Q4 (holiday shopping season) and sometimes Q1 (post-holiday sales), as well as their annual 'Shop Small' campaign.
