The Offer
There’s an offer showing for Staples with Bank of America Bank Amerideals. There are many other banks which share the same back end as Bank of America and run the same offers, such as Regions, BBVA, BB&T, Suntrust and more. Check your logins for those banks if you have a credit or debit card with them to see if you got targeted for this offer.
- Get 10% back at Staples and staples.com. Maximum $12.
The Fine Print
- Expires August 31, 2017
- Valid one-time only
Our Verdict
You can use any credit or debit card associated with that login where you see the offer to get credit. Once you use it once, you can’t use it again on another card in the same login.
This deal is especially good timing with the $20 Staples prepaid Visa rebate on $300 in Visa gift card purchases.
Split the payment in-store with $120 on the Bank of America card and the rest on your INK card to maximize. Some people will find it worthwhile to put the whole thing on the BofA card and lose out on the INK rewards if the cashier won’t let you split (e.g. someone who knows they’ll max out their INK limits regardless).
Hat tip to reader Chris P
There is new deal:
Earn 10% cash back on your Staples purchase, with a $11.00 cash back maximum! Offer expires 9/23/2017. Offer valid one time only. Payment must be made on or before offer expiration date.
But I still prefer using Amex Simply Cash card to get 5% back with no limit.
My Staples deal is only 5% with a $6 max.
Just got an email from BofA confirming Staples cash back purchase, but they need to verify whether’s is a valid purchase before rewarding the cash back. Hopefully the Visa giftcards works for cash back.
Thanks DOC! I saw this a few minutes before leaving for Staples. Netted me about $9!
Cool po$t, I’d never heard of Amerideals before — yet lo and behold found ’em on my BA / Amtrak cc login page, kinda hidden on the right, yet there. (but no staples as yet) Will be fun to stack these amerideals w/ portals on same transactions.

Not That Easy©
My BBVA Amex got 5% up to $6 (so $120 spend):
Earn 5% cash back on your Staples purchase, with a $6.00 cash back maximum! Offer expires 8/31/2017. Offer valid one time only. Payment must be made on or before offer expiration date.
Not better than using my Chase Ink. HARD PASS

I’ve never gotten any BankAmeriDeals with my BoA debit card.
thats almost impossible. it means u didnt subscribe.
sign up for what? you login and there’s a link for offers and deals. Nothing to “sign up for” as far as I can see other than logging in…
0/3 for me. Usually I get most of these deals. But this one looks like highly YMMV.
