*The American Express® Costco Business Card has no preset spending limit, giving you purchasing power that adjusts with your use of the Card. No preset spending limit does not mean unlimited spending. Your purchases are approved based on a variety of factors including spending patterns, your payment history, your credit history, and financial resources known to us.
†Additional Card Spending Limits must be established by calling the number on the back of your Card. The Spending Limit is not a guarantee that the Additional Cardmember will be able to make purchases up to that limit. There are certain purchases for which the limit does not apply, such as restaurant tips and hotel stays extended beyond their original reservation period, and the overall Account capacity is taken into consideration. For more information on the application of the limit, please refer to the Spending Limit Terms & Conditions that will be included in the confirmation letter mailed to you after your limit is applied to each Additional Card.
