I was trying to do this online because I’m overseas right now.. but it seems my 3x Google Pay at online checkout didn’t work to trigger the $10. Does that mean it needs to be done in person using the Google Pay app on a phone? Rereading the terms that seems to be the case.
Adding my DPs about which non in-person GPay purchases count: (inspired from seeing Dunkin DP below):
Using Google Wallet at the pump as tap to pay for Sheetz gas worked as usual (consistent with Google Pay and Apple Pay AmEx Offers triggered in the past).
Update to say that the Panera Bread in-app purchase of eGift Card using GPay to pay was not regornized as GPay (as opposed to Panera Bread in-app purchase of food using GPay).
What about for someone who’s overseas right now.. is there an app where I can use Google Pay for this deal? I thought I could just use Google Play store and buy 3 small aps with Google Pay / Wallet whatever it’s called.. but apparently that’s not one of the payment options
Used Google Wallet at three different merchants (Coffee Shop, McDonalds, Speedway) on 8/22. Received the $10 credit on 8/23. It was posted as a $10 credit for Speedway which was the third time I used Google Wallet so that must have triggered the credit?
I bought 3 bananas with 3x GPay/Wallet txns at the grocery store on 8/21. Offer isn’t pending yet though. Usually Amex emails me same-day when I redeem an offer successfully. I’ll reach out to CS next week if $10 offer still hasn’t been credited by then.
I never recieved the email, but got the credit.
Yeah I never got an email confirmation, but I got the $10 credit on 8/25 ✅ 4 days after the date of the transactions
So will paying with the Google Wallet app work since there is no Google Pay anymore?
Google Wallet on Android worked for me.
Can I get targeted if I use the Amex app on my iPhone? I’m wondering if I should install and use the Amex app on my Android phones as well.
Literally not even called google pay anymore. Why are they marketing it as so?
I was wondering the same thing.
So Amex can deny all redemptions without even needing the fine print – “Google Pay doesn’t even exist anymore, how could you possibly have redeemed this offer?”
Amex people just aren’t very smart or they would quit
Google branding is terrible. The in-store payments are still “Google Pay” or “GPay.” The Android phone app has just been rebranded as Google Wallet. Also, the iOS app of the same name that just allowed for P2P payments has been delisted in the US app store.
Valid through 9/30/24
Discover has a similar offer but it requires 3 x 20+ transactions to get $20 rewards.
