Amex card with Amazon

freccles

I am considering applying for the Amex card with Amazon, mainly I admit to get the £50 Amazon voucher. Will I be able to cancel in the first year to avoid the subsequent £50 per year fee? Does anyone know how soon you get the Amazon voucher? TIA

I signed up on a £100 sign up bonus last summer. The promotional credit applied immediately in my case, and I was able to terminate the card a few months later.

Is this the business credit card? If not do you have a link - I can’t find it.

Not the best card on the market.
Amex gold better option but cancel before end of 1st year to avoid £140 annual fee. Spend 3K in first 3 months to get the bonus points. 2 free airport lounge passes regardless of spend. 
Lots of ways to spend AMEX points

The business card is for businesses right?
and the gold card is for people with high spend? (I haven’t spent anything like that)

What I mean is, having one doesn't stop you from having the other.  For the Amex Amazon card you don't need to spend anything and you get a £50 Amazon gift credit.  For the Amex Gold, you do actually have to spend on it to get rewards but the rewards will be greater than the Amex Amazon card.

Agreed, with Amex you need a spare card anyway as there are always places that don’t take it.
for example many of the parking apps e.g. mipermit.
we get Amex refused a lot.
