30,000 Membership Rewards® points American Express Business Checking Welcome Offer

You are not eligible to earn a Welcome Bonus for any accounts opened for a business that currently has or has had an American Express^® Business Checking account.

To be eligible to earn a Welcome Bonus of 30,000 Membership Rewards^® points (the “Welcome Offer”), you must meet each of the following qualifying criteria:

1. Open your first American Express^® Business Checking account, which is subject to approval;
   
   
2. Deposit a total of $5,000 or more in eligible deposits that you make and are posted to your account within thirty (30) days of account opening.  Eligible deposits are all deposits that you make, except deposits from any other American Express^® Business Checking account, deposits from interest payments, and deposits using our Redeem Membership Rewards Points for Deposits feature. Eligible deposits that you may make within thirty (30) days of account opening but that post to your account and appear in your available balance after thirty (30) days of account opening do not qualify; 
   
   
3. Maintain an average daily balance in your account of at least $5,000 for sixty (60) days, starting on the date that your eligible deposits are equal to $5,000 or greater. We calculate the average daily balance of your account for the sixty (60) days as the sum of your account’s end-of-day balance for sixty (60) consecutive calendar days divided by sixty; and
   
   
4. Complete five (5) qualifying transactions within sixty (60) days of account opening. “Qualifying transactions” are defined as mobile deposits, check deposits by mail, and electronic/online transactions, including ACH, Wire, and Bill Payment transactions made to or from your account.  Business Debit Card transactions and deposits using our Redeem Membership Rewards Points for Deposits feature are not qualifying transactions. Transfers between American Express^® Business Checking accounts held by the same business are not qualifying transactions. Stop payments and transactions that do not post to your account and do not appear in your Available Balance within sixty (60) days of account opening are not qualifying transactions.

After you have completed all the above qualifying criteria, American Express will credit the Membership Rewards points to the Membership Rewards Program Account linked to your American Express^® Business Checking account within 8-12 weeks. We may not credit the Membership Rewards points, or we may take away the Membership Rewards points if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have engaged in abuse, misuse, or gaming in connection with the offer in any way or that you intend to do so. We may also cancel this account and other accounts you may have with us if we determine abuse, misuse or gaming behavior has been shown. Your American Express^® Business Checking account must be open at the time of fulfillment; we may not credit the Membership Rewards points if you or we close your American Express^® Business Checking account.

The Welcome Bonus may be taxable income to you and may be reported on IRS Form 1099. You are responsible for any federal or state taxes resulting from the offer. Please consult your tax advisor if you have questions about the tax treatment of the Welcome Bonus.

American Express reserves the right to modify or revoke this Welcome Offer at any time without notice.
