Our Verdict
You’ll want to stack this deal, some options:
- New users only: You can use my friend’s referral code Z294732W4 (signup link) which gives you $10 off $10 or use SPRING2018 for 20% off first order (max $20).
- New & existing users: Google Express: 15% off App Purchase for Everyone, Max $20 (GETAPP15)
- [YMMV] Free Shipping On Google Express For Orders $15+ (stacks with the above deals as no promo code is needed)
Free shipping is usually available on purchases of $25/$35+ anyway. Google Express has some major retailers on board as well (Target, Costco, Walmart). Keep in mind prices are usually higher on Google Express than direct, but with this amex offer and the above offers you will definitely end up ahead. Still worth doing a price comparison to focus on the items that are the best value. We saw a similar AmEx Offer at the end of last year as well.

Wow this same thing happened to me with two separate orders (had it on 4 cards)…they are blatantly playing games with this. Beyond annoyed!
Picked up a 4 TB hard drive for $68 (with tax) after discounts. Not too bad a deal.
Anyone else having trouble checking out? I keep getting an error regarding my coupon can only be used once and can’t be used with a prepaid card. I’m just trying to use the amex offer on my SPG personal.
I also am having this problem, the exact wording was/is:
“Try another card or check your payment information.
If you used a coupon code, remember that these can
only be used once, and not with a prepaid card.”
What I know so far is:
– Its not vendor related, will get the same error purchasing from costco or walmart using a amex card.
– Could be a ship to / billing address problem with amex, however the order will go thru if you change your cc payment from amex to
mastercard or visa. I’ve also called up amex and had a shipment
address on file added, but still no luck.
– When trying to place a order and having that error, google express payment history will show order as cancelled and when you login to
your amex website, amex will show a pending google order of $1.
– Cant be a google coupon problem b/c it works when you switch cards.
Anyone that knows how to solve this problem, please chime in.
Had the same issue. Contacted CS. They stated the card appeared from their end to be a prepaid card. He actually had me place the order and then credited the difference.
I had similar problem while using Amex offer on Walmart last year and Groupon few days ago.
With Walmart after wasting lot of time, I finally figured out that they have some kind of a flag on my account.
My advice: Don’t waste your time.
I really don’t understand how Amex decides who gets these offers. I now have 10 cards and I found this offer in 7 of them. Of course google express is not available in Hawaii so not useful.
1 out of 11
10/10 thanks Doc.
Arg! 0/5 on my cards, but 4/4 on my boyfriend’s cards, three of which he’s my AU.
$20/60 offer on 4/5 cards.
0 for 14 within my household.
Google Express doesn’t seem to sell any gift cards anymore… weird.
Exactly what I just found… anything worthwhile to buy here that isn’t overpriced enough to negate the Amex offer + discount code?
I’ve found staple items from Walmart such as motor oil and filters are good to buy during these offers.
I really feel like I haven’t been getting any of the good offers lately (google express, amazon,) ever since I product changed my BCP to BCE =/
Any of these tips work to trigger the Express offer for you: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/how-to-get-the-american-express-amazon-offer-to-show-still-ymmv/?
I gave it hell, but couldn’t get it to show. Maybe AMEX will have my back on the next one 😀
In general, I’d say that Amex no longer has “good offers” anymore.
I’ve had a bce since 2012, and the offer were great in early years.
