Amex confirms the mechanism but not the amount. Numbers quoted elsewhere are third-party estimates, not official figures.

Applying through your link is not enough -- the referred applicant has to be approved for the points to count.

Capped at 5 a year, per card

Each eligible card account can earn a referral bonus up to five times per calendar year.

About Amex Hilton Honors Cards

American Express runs its Hilton Honors card referrals through its own Refer a Friend platform. The mechanism is well documented; the exact reward is not.

American Express does not publicly disclose the referral bonus amount for its Hilton Honors credit cards. What its official Refer a Friend page does confirm is the mechanism: log in to your Amex account, select the Hilton card you want to refer, and either generate a personalised referral link or send referrals by email.

A referral only pays out once someone applies through your link and is approved. Eligible cardmembers can earn a referral bonus up to 5 times per card account per calendar year, and points can take 8 to 12 weeks to appear once the approval requirement is met.

Third-party estimates of 15,000 to 20,000 points per referral circulate widely, but none trace back to an Amex source -- treat any specific figure you see quoted elsewhere as unofficial.
