      Common questions

      Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Amazon Business Prime American Express Card or Amazon Prime Visa?
      The Amazon Prime Visa has the bigger bonus, $150-$200 Amazon Gift Card upon approval (varies), worth roughly $175, versus $125 Amazon.com Gift Card (~$125) on the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card.
      Is the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the Amazon Prime Visa?
      The Amazon Business Prime American Express Card has no annual fee, so the question is whether the Amazon Prime Visa's $0 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the Amazon Prime Visa's benefits to clear $0 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card.
      Can I have both the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card and Amazon Prime Visa?
      Yes, since they're from different issuers (American Express and Chase) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
      Should I get the Amazon Business Prime American Express Card or the Amazon Prime Visa first?
      Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Amazon Business Prime American Express Card: $0 spend in 0 months. Amazon Prime Visa: $0 in 0 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
