You can apply (and pay) to get Amex points from corporate card spend on personal points account.

You cannot

Just get the credit card
I never use it. You can use personal card for expenses and get it reimbursed if the corporate card isn’t allowed to be used (for example with PayPal)

But when u need to travel or cover expenses for an event it’s nice not to have to worry about if they’ll refund you in time to pay rent or cover your personal cc bill

Pwc1 my state doesn’t allow amex for cpa renewal fees

PwC is very, very explicit about the use of the corporate card.

It’s really not a big deal as some above seem to make it out to be. You pay with card, expense it, and it is paid. If you opt in you accrue MR points.

I think the big 4 should all revolt on this.

Amex used to waive all interest charges for corporate clients. This was the stick offered employees for giving up most of the value (points) of a card to the corporate relationship.

Now employees are captive customers forced into whatever terms Amex gives them but are also responsible for their own late fees. And let’s be real, sometimes it’s just too busy to do expenses.

At least on a personal card you can choose your own benefits and perks programs. And you have the power to walk away from a cc with unreasonable late fees. Plenty of other firms do it.

What? 60-80 hour weeks are not unusual on strategy teams. But yeah, I’m not doing my expenses on a Saturday.

Thanks! I guess no more making use of my personal Amex for company expenses 😒

There is always a reason in the background why they do this, and I am sure it is all negotiated into the program agreement with Amex and maybe some benefits to the firm by doing that.

Similar issues with airlines and hotels. Very common to go to a corporate booking site and get quoted a fee and then finding the ticket cheaper online. In my experience (outside PwC), the airline had a set “corp fee”, but at the end of the year, my company would get a rebate /discount from the airline (millions of $) based on annual booking volume.
