Received an invitation to apply for the Hilton HHonors Surpass Card from American Express.  I already hold the card, but I thought the offer was worth posting.  Earn the points by accomplishing the following:

  • 40,000 bonus points after your first purchase.

  • 20,000 bonus points for your first 8 stays (2,500 points per stay over 18 months).

  • 2,500 bonus points for adding an additional cardmember.

The card carries a $75 dollar annual fee, but includes an annual pay per visit Priority Pass membership ($99 dollar value), and earns 9 points per dollar at Hilton properties, 6 points per dollar at select merchant categories such as grocery and drugstores, telephone providers, gas stations, internet service providers, home phone, wireless, cable and satellite TV providers.  The card includes one year of HHonors VIP Gold status and the ability to attain Diamond status by making $40,000 dollars per year in charges. 

I still love the Starwood Preferred Guest Amex, but this card offers a compelling package of benefits for Hilton customers.

Click here to apply.
