You may be asking, why would I want multiple American Express accounts? If you’re into stacking Amex Offers, having multiple accounts is the simplest way to ensure that you get the same offer on multiple cards.
If you are interested in making new accounts to take full advantage of Amex Offers, the easiest method is to make a new online account for each new card. If you already have your fair share of Amex cards and don’t plan on applying for new ones anytime soon, follow these simple steps to create a new account for each card.
Step 1: Remove the card from your existing account
Log into your Amex account and select “Account Services”.
Next select, “Remove Card from Online Management”.
Select the correct card and click “Remove”.
Step 2: Create a new account
You can then create a new account by clicking here. This is the same process as when you first received the card in the mail.
Step 3: Repeat
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for as many cards as you’d like.
Merging Back into One Account
If you ever change your mind, it’s easy enough to add the cards back to the same account. Remove the card from its existing account (step 1).
Then, log in to the account you wish to use for all of your cards. Click “My Accounts” in the top righthand corner.
Scroll to the bottom and select “Add Another Card”.
Final Thoughts
If you frequently use Amex Offers and are interested in using the same deal multiple times, it might make sense for you to create a different American Express account for each of your cards. Just make sure to keep all of your accounts on auto-pay since more accounts equals more room for error.
