Our Verdict

I see this offer on a small percent of my cards. Some have the 15% offer and some the 10%. The $5 max is measly, but better than nothing. Check out these Things to Know about Amex Offer Deals for more information.

  • Hey Doc,

    I received an Amex offer for 10,000 memerbship rewards points for $500 spend on Virgin Atlantic.

  • This not being valid for mobile app reloads makes my wife sad. Paying through the app and getting stars (or what) is ~10% if no bonuses present, but there are always some bonus. And if you pay with CC you don't get stars (at least that's what she told me), so the 10% offer I got is actually worse than just reloading her balance.

    But AFACT in-store gift card purchases are not excluded, so she could buy a GC and apply to her account?

    In the meanwhile BofA put similar offers on a 3 of our cards what was good on reloads as well. Not sure what was is now, but it's always something like 5-25% up to $5-$10 back. (That offer probably shows up on the other banks with the same offer backend as well.)

    • I got the 10%, but would like to know if it would work for buying a gift card and then loading that onto the Starbucks app. Anyone have past experience? Otherwise I'll be the DP.

      • I bought a $50 gift card in the store & got the AmEx notification that I successfully completed the offer. I later applied the gc to my acct w/ no problem.
