The Pundit’s Mantra
Previously, you could refer yourself and earn a referral and sign-up bonus on American Express cards. However, if you are intending to do this, I’d suggest you proceed with caution. Referring yourself is a risky proposition as Amex is cracking down on self-referrals by clawing back points.
