Are you asked whether you have any existing cards, whether those are personal or business when applying for a card?
Personal cards should show up when they conduct credit search
it does ask you, but then asks for the number. I can’t be bothered filling this in so I leave it all blank; as Gimme says, they know anyway!
You don’t need to mention Corporate (eg company-issued) cards. Technically you should mention Business cards – as they have personal liabiity – but if you failed to mention it you could explain it away as a genuine mistake.
Whether it makes any difference re qualifying for bonuses again is a different question.
