American Airlines Barclaycard Business Offer 80K points w/ $2,000 spend no fee first year

+10 Deal Score
12,774 Views
Here's the best AA offer at present - 80K points on the Barclay business CC with $2,000 spend and no fee for the first year. No hassle to getting a business card as using it for your eBay or Amazon sales qualifies you. I got two cards for myself and my wife with no questions asked. An extra bonus is that i believe business cards do not count against the Chase 5/24 limit.

Too bad AA does not offer free checked bag on international with premium CC. JetBlue and other airlines do.

I had the consumer Barclay's AA card, closed 1 year ago.

Do you know if that's considered to be a previous account wrt getting the bonus miles on this business card?

BTW, is Chase rule now 5/48 instead of 5/24? Or are you referring to the Sapphire Preferred Card bonus?

My error. It is 5/24. I corrected in OP.

I am planning to start an online store, which means it is still not set up yet. What do I need to prove to show Barclays that I have justifications to get a business card?

Hey OP (or anyone) - if I open this card up for my wife (I've already had it recently) can I put down my own AAdvantage number and get her points to my account even though I got the bonus via my card? I know to play it safe I should just use hers but I like having all the points pooled in one place to make us all on the same itinerary when we redeem. Or are point transfers free between AA accounts?

Nothing. Just put your social as the business ID.

Barclays has terrible customer service; they discriminate against random applicants by harassing into requiring follow-up documentation, and one of the requirements is A SOCIAL SECURITY CARD as if any of us carry that around anymore (or keep one, for that matter). Then the pretend that they will accept alternate forms of identification, via fax or postal mail only, but loop back to rejection even so. Total asses.

Depends on where you are flying "international". All passengers (except basic econ) get a free bag for transatlantic/transpacific flights. No CC needed.

Transfers are not free, but you can book a ticket for anyone else for free.

Thing is, your plan would be risking the bonus for which you would have NO recourse.

I used to get offers from Citibank, and put the bonus miles from MY card in my father's (Gold status) account with no problem but that is not the same scenario. However that was long ago and things are tighter now. Don't know whether that would work with Barclay's today.

Yeah there is 0 info about my question online surprisingly. The benefit of putting it in my Aadvantage account is I already have a lot of points and just want to add to the pool so I can book any award redemption value, as opposed to only having 80K points to play with at a time since she has very little right now. I think I will just play it safe and put it in her account.

No, they will look up the account and name must match the AA number. If it doesn't match, you'll either get a letter stating such, or wind up with a new AA number with her name.

I've had a friend provide wrong number and get a letter from Barclay's. And another friend had incomplete one on the form (filled out via paper app), and just got a new number.
