American Express is out with an interesting new welcome bonus on the Blue Business Plus and Blue Business Cash credit cards.

New Blue Business Plus and Blue Business Cash Welcome Offers
The new offer on both cards is Up to $300 in statement credits. After your first purchase with the card, you’ll earn $100 to spend at: Dell, DocuSign, and FedEx.
So, essentially, you won’t get any points or cash, but after just one purchase of any size, you “unlock” $100 to spend (with the spend rebated as a statement credit at each one of the merchants: Dell, DocuSign, and FedEx.
Both cards have historically not had any public welcome bonus offers. But via Refer-a-Friend links, we’ve seen up to 20,000 Membership Rewards points (though it’s typically 10,000 Membership Rewards points) on the Blue Business Plus and up to $500 on the Blue Business Cash.
That said, the refer-a-friend offers have been replaced by this same offer. So whether you apply via an affiliate link, a public link, or a referral link, this will be the offer for several months.
Both cards also have a 0% intro APR on purchases for 12 months from the date of account opening at this time.
See how to apply for the Blue Business Plus or Blue Business Cash.
Bottom Line:
For many people, waiting for this offer to end and then using a refer-a-friend link may result in a better offer. But if you need to apply now, you may find these offers useful. My own DocuSign account just renewed for $130 (very basic plan) and it’s not that hard to use $100 in FedEx or Dell either.
