Finding value in every transaction is key for small-business owners who already have to worry about navigating everyday expenses. That’s where the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card comes in. Not only does this card offer substantial value on both Amazon and non-Amazon purchases, but cardholders can also expect to receive the same exceptional customer service benefits that American Express offers its other cardholders.
Approved applicants with an eligible Prime membership will receive a $125 Amazon gift card, a great welcome offer for a rewards card with no annual fee (see rates and fees). Terms apply.
So if you’re a small-business owner who purchases supplies for the office, takes clients out to restaurants or treats employees with corporate gifts, the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card could be a strategic and rewarding solution for your business.
The choice of Amazon Rewards or cash-flow solutions
This card offers a unique rewards structure that gives business owners the power to choose their rewards. Cardmembers with an eligible Amazon Prime membership can choose between extended 90-day payment terms on U.S. purchases at amazon.com, Amazon Business, AWS and Whole Foods Market or boosting their savings on Amazon purchases with 5% rewards on the first $120,000 in purchases each calendar year (with 1% rewards after that). The rewards can then be redeemed to save on purchases on Amazon. Terms apply.
You will also receive 2% Amazon rewards on purchases at U.S. restaurants and gas stations and on wireless phone services purchased directly from U.S. service providers, as well as 1% Amazon rewards on all other eligible purchases. Terms apply.
The Amazon Business Prime American Express Card has no foreign transaction fees, another money-saving benefit for cardmembers who travel for business or make purchases in any foreign currency. Did you know American Express is accepted at 99% of places in the U.S. that take credit cards?
“The rewards are great. With the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card, we get 5% back at amazon.com (with eligible Prime membership), and we use those rewards to treat our employees or buy supplies for our business,” Amazon Business Prime American Express Card member Taylor Broach of Taylored Technology explains.*
