We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    If you have an AMEX Hilton card, check your email or AMEX Offers section online for a fantastic deal!

    Folks are reporting that American Express is offering them 150,000 Hilton points after they upgrade their card to an AMEX Hilton Aspire Card and meet minimum spending requirements!  Plus, when you upgrade your card, AMEX won’t pull your credit.  So your credit score will be completely unaffected!

    150,000 Hilton points is a LOT.  For example, you’d have enough points for 2 nights at the Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa after you meet minimum spending requirements.  That could cost $1,000+, depending on when you travel!

    The information for the Hilton Honors Aspire Card from American Express has been collected independently by Million Mile Secrets.  The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.

    Or, you could use your 150,000 points to stay 15 free nights at the Hilton Garden Inn Vienna South in Austria.

    If you have the Hilton Honors American Express Ascend Card or Hilton Honors American Express Card, you may be eligible for a targeted upgrade to the Hilton Honors Aspire Card from American Express.  You’ll earn 150,000 Hilton points after upgrading and spending $4,000 on the card within 3 months.

    That’s a great incentive to upgrade your card.  Because that’s as high as the card’s regular welcome bonus!  Here’s what you need to know:

    This is a great deal because it’s the same offer as if you apply for the card outright.  Remember, the AMEX Hilton Aspire card does have a $450 annual fee, which is not waived the first year.  So it’s something you’ll want to consider.

    Team member Jason upgraded his no-annual-fee AMEX Hilton card to an AMEX Hilton Surpass card (no longer available) in the past.  And he had to pay a pro-rated annual fee.  So it’s likely that if you upgrade the same situation will apply to you.  And if you’re not sure how the card’s benefits will apply to a mid-year upgrade, read this post which answers a past reader question on the topic.

    Let us know if you’re targeted for this deal!
