Tips & Ideas
This is a great offer if you’re targeted, especially if you get the $100/$50 version of the offer. It’ll work on third party gift cards (i.e. not Amazon gift cards), so that’s a good option if you don’t have anything else you need/want to buy on Amazon.
Prime Day is on October 14 which is also when this offer is due to expire. As Doctor of Credit notes though, with a limit of 40,000 accounts being able to use this offer, this deal might end sooner than that.
If you’re not targeted for this deal, following the steps below might get you targeted. It used to work, but with some recent deals my account still wasn’t able to activate the offer.
- Delete any American Express cards already enrolled in Shop With Points from your payment methods on Amazon.
- Add at least one American Express card that earns Membership Rewards points back as a payment method.
- Re-enroll in Shop With Points (our affiliate link)
- Try to activate the offer (our affiliate link)
- You probably won’t be able to activate the offer immediately, so try again every day for the next week or so and you should hopefully be successful.
