    Amex Explorer 80000 Points (New as of 31 Jan) Referral Offer

    This card changed my points strategy. No longer 110,000 Gateway points, but 80,000 (subject to meeting spend conditions) with a referral link is also pretty good. Highlights below. Apply here using my referral to get 80,000 points (and i'll get 20,000). http://amex.com.au/refer/GC6YQ...

    Thanks Fitz, found it. Looks like you need to have the Plat Charge before you get offered the Centurion? Did anyone skip the Platinum?

    AMEX Centurion Benefits List for 2016

    Centurion holders - how much did you spend a month to qualify? And which Amex did you have before the Centurion? I am currently on the Explorer, doing ~$100k per month (and paying on time). Do you think these amounts will qualify me? How long will it take?

    Yes, its the supp card option. If I get one of the ones that converts at 1:1, will I keep my regular plan (Explorer, 4:3) or join the better one (like the Edge)?
