Although it is a Business card many individuals have had success applying for and receiving the card simply by making themselves the ‘business entity’ making this a key card for the 'travel hackers' out there looking to maximize rewards from credit card applications. The only thing you have to be aware of is the spend requirement to get the sign up bonus which is $5,000 in three months so some people may find this hard to achieve.
Whether you choose to use the 30,000 points via TripFlex for a $300 travel credit or convert to Aeroplan or Avios, this update to the card is a great enhancement!
