What Simply Best Coupons takes you to is https://www.giftcards.com/ my friend. That is not the right website. We will need to buy from HappyCards.com to be eligible for the AMEX offer of $15.

Does the Happy Father work at Lowe’s in store for gift card purchase?

Any idea if Happy Father’s Day will work online at lowes.com?

Same thing happened with me. I went through the happycards link in the offer itself

I did this deal back in December. It coded as Blackhawk and I got the “Great News!” email from Amex the same day. I’ve occasionally had Amex offers work without the email.

Did it, didn’t get the email, but $15 credit posted a couple of days later. Amex seems to be slacking off on those emails. I’ve been doing lots of $1 reloads of my Amazon gift card balance (need 30 purchases per statement on my Everyday Preferred), and they’ve stopped sending me emails about the +5 points offer. I used to get one for every reload.

Can we still use Happy card to buy 3rd party gift card at Panera?

Panera doesn’t sell 3rd party gift cards just theirs.

They updated the terms to disallow this. https://happycards.com/faq/

CAN HAPPY CARDS BE USED TO PURCHASE GIFT CARDS?
No. In general, Happy Cards cannot be used to purchase other gift cards.

What exactly does “in general” mean in this case?
It should be a yes or no answer.

“In general” means that it will work if the cashier lets you do it. I’ve never had a problem buying a gift card with a Happy card even after this language was added. I just make sure not to show the cashier how I’m paying. Just swipe the card and get it out of sight.

They’re pretty much accepted everywhere in regards to Being hard-coded. But places like bed bath and beyond might not let you.

Looks like Dell and Home Depot are no longer available as partners.

Also, I’d be worried about a lot of those other stores going bankrupt of you don’t have an immediate use for the card…

Happy Father’s Day looks like a suitable alternative (Lowe’s).

Lowes price always look bloated to me compared with HD. Let alone their sh*tty app.

Got it on my Green $15 and my Everyday 1500 pts. None on my BBP. Will likely pass.

Not seeing on Blue Business Plus. Also only seeing the $15 off offer, even on a variety of MR-earning cards.
