One connection I haven’t seen people make yet is that Amex Platinum (one of the most high end “perks” cards) announced a partnership with AirBnB at pretty much the same time. In fact they changed some of their benefits structures to focus on AirBnB credits, replacing/augmenting existing hotel credits.

I would not doubt that they had a hand in this change as they did not want their users mad at the experience they would get going through AirBnB.

Amex demands a lot from their partners. I worked at a mortgage mill for a bit and they had a dedicated team of Amex only people, and they had slightly different guidelines and KPIs.

Sidenote, hearing "KPI" wheb job searching is now an automatic "No" from me.
