Huge Referral and Signup Bonus for Amex Business Platinum Card
American Express has increased both the referral bonus and the signup bonus on the Business Platinum card. You can now earn 100,000 points when you sign up through a referral and 20,000 points for everyone you refer. But be careful, do not refer yourself.

Earn 50,000 Membership Rewards® points after you spend $10,000 and an extra 50,000 points after you spend an additional $15,000 all on qualifying purchases on the Business Platinum Card within the first 3 months of Card Membership.

Referral Bonus
The referral bonus for those who have the Amex Business Platinum card already, has also been increased. You can now earn 20,000 Membership Rewards points for every person that you refer and is approved for a new card. That’s up from 15,000 points.
The annual limit is still 55,000 points, so you now need only three referrals, instead of 4, to maximize it.
That makes it the best option to use for referrals, alongside the Amex Gold Rewards card. Amex Blue Business Plus and Amex Platinum offer 15,000 and most other cards offer 10K or $100.
