Our Verdict

This bonus was just increased to 125,000 points. This new 150,000 offer is the highest we’ve ever seen on this card. American Express doesn’t match sign up bonuses if you’ve recently applied, but they sometimes offer courtesy points. This hasn’t been the case when other Hilton cards had increased bonuses, but it’s always worth a try. I don’t see this offer going any higher in the short term, so if you need/want Hilton points then this is a good opportunity to get some. Keep in mind the sign up bonuses on the other cards are also increased:

I’ll be adding this to the best credit card sign up bonuses. As always if you have any questions, read this post about American Express cards first.
