Best Credit Cards for Amazon Ads
Loading...
Ever since I started using the Amex Biz Gold for PPC spend a few years ago, I’ve been flying business class for every flight when I go from US to Asia every year – all with the points I earn from PPC spend. Boy, I wish I knew this sooner.
This is one of the biggest things that wish I did YEARS sooner when I started selling on Amazon in 2015. Using a business credit card that earns points on adspend and inventory purchase. If you aren’t, you should be.
A friend told me this years ago... He told me that I’m missing out on 100’s of thousands, even MILLIONS of points which equate to ā€œbasically freeā€ flights, simply by using a business credit card.

So how does it work? It’s simple. Just pay your Amazon PPC with business credit card that earns points. You can also do the same for your inventory payments – ask your supplier for card payment options.
By doing this, you’ll rack up tons of points which can be used for flights, hotels & more.What are the best cards to use?
šŸ’³Ā The best business cards for adspend are widely known to be these two because they get 4x and 3x points on adspend, respectively.
These two cards require 670+ credit score. If you’re not there, here’s a full list of the best credit cards for business.
If you don’t have an LLC yet, you will need one – every Amazon seller should use an LLC. How to get an LLC in 1 day.

My story: ā€œHow I fly Business class freeā€
I spent around $10,000 a month on PPC. That’s about 400,000 Amex points a year. A typical one-way Business Class flight from Seattle to Bangkok is around 120,000-180,000 points, so I am able to fly both ways totally free every year – Business Class.

šŸ“ For Travel Lovers
Turns out a good buddy of mine, Trevor Wright, whom I met at the Ecommerce conference in Thailand that first brought be to Asia – is the founder of milemethod.com.
He offers a consulting service that helps business professionals earn 1 Million points in 18 months and ā€œearn free travelā€ by building you a custom credit card points action plan that earns you the most points based on your needs.
It’s not just free flights though. It’s free hotel’s too. Trevor has been traveling the world for 10+ years flying free and staying in Hyatt and Hilton hotels too. If you are a business traveler, it’s a no-brainer imo.
Note, this works for US citizens only (this is an amazing hack that we have as Americans!)

I was also to fly out my Mom and Parker’s Mom business class because of points from PPC adspend:)
