Reports on Slickdeals indicate that gift card purchases via the Samsung Pay app are working to trigger the AmEx Shop Small $5 credit promotion with $10 purchase.
You can buy gift cards to many places such as Best Buy, Starbucks, eBay, and more. Some, such as Spotify and Google Play, can be bought in $10 denominations. Others, such as Best Buy, have a $15 minimum. Remember that you can only buy two gift cards per day from Samsung Pay.
We previously reported similar things about gift card purchases from the Fluz app and from the eGifter website working to trigger the Shop Small offer. Samsung Pay is now a third option. These are useful for someone who can’t use the offer on organic purchases.
I’m a little less confident in using Samsung Pay since it doesn’t actually seem to be a small business and there’s a small risk for clawback, though overall my guess is it’ll be fine. If anyone finds Samsung Pay on the Shop Small map, let us know and I’ll add it. Fluz and eGifter are actual small businesses and they show on the Shop Small map; they seem like safe options to me.
