Blue Business Plus Credit Card from American Express by American Express: 2x everything else. No annual fee. 15,000-point welcome bonus. Rates and credits…
The Blue Business Plus Credit Card from American Express is American Express's no-annual-fee credit card. The $0/yr annual fee includes a 15,000-point welcome bonus after spending $3,000 in the first 3 months. Beyond the welcome bonus, here's what the card actually delivers.
Welcome bonus value (year one): ~$300. Annual statement credits: $0. Minus the $0 annual fee = ~$300 in year-one net value before any spending earn. RewardsGuru rating: 4.2/5 — based on our net-value methodology.
Best fit: small-business owners who can run business expenses through one card and want the welcome bonus + category multipliers. Skip if: you don't have separate business spend or you'd struggle to hit the welcome-bonus spending requirement.
15,000 points after spending $3,000 in the first 3 months. At our ~2¢/pt valuation, that's roughly $300 in real value.
