    Better Offers for the Hilton AMEX Card

    Link:   My Review of the Hilton Honors™ Card from American Express

    I like the Hilton Honors™ Card from American Express because it has NO annual fee and it’s an easy way to increase your Hilton points balance.  And keeping no-annual-fee cards for the long term will likely help boost your credit score)

    With this card, you’ll also get:

    But, it also has a ~3% foreign transaction fee, so it’s NOT a good card to use overseas. 🙁

    The Hilton Honors™ Card from American Express normally comes with 50,000 Hilton points after you spend $750 on purchases in the first 3 months of opening your account.  But now, there are 2 much better offers for the card!

    1.   60,000 Bonus Points

    To get the 60,000 Hilton point sign-up bonus, visit this page to find the link.  And click through to the offer!

    You’ll earn 60,000 Hilton points after spending $1,000 on purchases in the first 3 months of account opening.

    This is 10,000 points higher than my link for the 50,000 point offer.  So it’s a good deal!

    2.   50,000 Bonus Points + $50 Statement Credit

    To get the 50,000 Hilton points with a $50 statement credit after your first purchase, go to the Hilton website.  You’ll need to begin booking a reservation, and fill out all the information until you arrive at the “Payment” page.  You’ll see the offer in a box next to the “Payment Information” section.

    You’ll Find the $50 Statement Credit Offer at the Payment Page on the Hilton Website

    You do NOT have to reserve a room.  Just click the offer and exit the Hilton website.

    Note:   AMEX restricts folks to earning 1 sign-up bonus per card, per lifetime.  So choose carefully, because you can only get 1 of these bonuses.

    Also, neither of these 2 offers are the highest we’ve seen for this card.  So if you don’t need Hilton points immediately, it might be a good idea to wait for a better bonus.

    Which Deal Is Better?

    Hilton points are generally worth about ~0.5 cents each.  So at first glance, the extra 10,000 Hilton points you’ll get with the first offer is about the same as the $50 statement credit of the second offer (0.5 cents per point X 10,000 Hilton points).

    However, it’s possible to get much more value from your Hilton points.  For example, with 10,000 Hilton points you can stay at a category 1 hotel for 2 nights.  Or a category 2 hotel for 1 night.  And that’s almost certainly more than $50!

    Use 10,000 Points to Stay at a Category 2 Hotel Like the Hilton Garden Inn Oxford/Anniston, Alabama and You’re Sure to Get More Value Than Just .5 Cents Per Point!

    Want More Hilton Points?

    There are lots of ways to earn Hilton points.  For example, Hilton has 3 other co-branded credit cards:

    Plus, some cards earn miles or points that you can transfer to Hilton.  These include:

    Bottom Line

    There are 2 higher sign-up bonuses for the AMEX Hilton card!  You can earn 60,000 Hilton points after meeting minimum spending requirements by following the link on this website.

    Or you can earn 50,000 Hilton points and a $50 statement credit after meeting minimum spending requirements by starting a reservation on the Hilton website (you do NOT have to book a room).  You’ll see the ad for the offer on the final booking screen.

    I prefer the 60,000 Hilton point offer, because I can get more than $50 in value from 10,000 Hilton points.

    If you haven’t received the bonus before on these cards, this is a good opportunity to earn a lot of Hilton points!  But there have been higher offers in the past.  So if you aren’t in a hurry to earn Hilton points, it’s a good idea to wait.
