The Fine Print

  • Valid through 11/25
  • Valid online at walmart.com only; includes pickup and delivery orders; includes Walmart app orders
  • Not valid in Walmart stores
  • Not valid for Walmart+ membership purchases

Our Verdict

Seems like this offer is mainly (only?) showing on the Platinum card. Works well with the new Platinum Walmart+ membership benefit.

Walmart is not typically a bonused store and I’d find this offer useful given that I shop more at Walmart.com now with my Walmart+ membership. Another option for Walmart now is Chase Freedom or Discover IT for 5% back this quarter. 

You can simply buy a $500 Walmart gift card which can then be used in Walmart stores or Walmart gas or Sam’s Club. (Bulk gift card purchases are excluded, but ordinary gift card and e-gift card purchases should work.)

  • How long does it usually take for the bonus points to post? I bought an e-gift card a couple weeks ago and the points haven't posted.

    • Following up, e-gift cards DO NOT WORK. It would be best to buy a physical gift card in store or online and have it mailed to you.

  • There’s also an Amex offer for $10 off on $50 at Walmart.com

    P3 received it on the Pt AU card.

  • I downgraded my Platinum to Green a few days before the Gold Card refresh so I was able to add this offer. Not expecting it to work since it says Platinum only. We'll see.

  • new plat member here, Question. Do you guys recommend adding all available offers to account at once to get targeted for more?

  • For current AmEx offer (Get +5 Membership Rewards® points per eligible dollar spent. Up to 4,000 points
    Walmart.com EXPIRES 01/31/2022), I can confirm that buying physical WM GC from online triggered the notification and the +5x MR points posted as earned the next day.

  • @chucksithe seeing a new offer for $10 off $35+ at Walmart.com up to 4x:

    Get a $10 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $35 in one or more purchases online at Walmart.com by 1/31/2022. Limit of 4 statement credits (total of $40). See terms.

    Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid online at Walmart.com. Includes Walmart pickup & delivery purchases made online at Walmart.com and qualifying purchases made through the Walmart mobile app. Purchases of Walmart+ memberships are excluded. Qualifying purchases must be made in USD via the US version of the website and shipped within the U.S. Some merchants may not ship to all areas. See merchant website for shipping policy. Excludes purchases from third party or affiliate websites linked with/from walmart.com (such as, but not limited to, Walmart Contacts, Walmart Checks, Walmart Photo Services, Walmart Stationary, and Walmart Moneygram). Excludes bulk gift cards & e-gift cards, in-store purchases, layaway purchases, insurance services, auto services, pharmacy transactions, protection plans, and recurring subscription services (for example, Beauty Box and Baby Box). Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 4 statement credits (total of $40 back) per Card Member. You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet. Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 1/31/2022, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been shipped/provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account. The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive statement credits. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Amex Offers are dynamic and personalized, so the offers you see may change. For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.
