Before getting to the deal information, I wanted to highlight that bonus points that were supposed to be awarded by Pepper Rewards yesterday for purchases from 18 days ago weren’t awarded for at least some – if not all – people.
It sounds like some people have now received yesterday’s due points, but other people have reported still not receiving their points. As per the warnings on every post about Pepper Rewards deals, please read the cautionary post linked to below and assess your own risk with these deals.

Tips & Ideas
After a couple of issues with coding, it seems like Pepper Rewards should still be earning 4x Membership Rewards on the Amex Business Gold card if it’s one of your top two earning categories for the billing cycle.
As with all these Pepper Rewards deals, you only earn some of the points now, with the remaining bonus points being awarded at a future date. Unfortunately the app doesn’t give you any way to easily track what you’re owed, so you’ll need to track that yourself to ensure they credit you the correct amount which is frustrating.
I’d also recommend that you read this cautionary post.
For deals where you earn bonus points rather than get an instant discount, make sure that the boosted rate is still showing in the app before each purchase you make. Popular deals often sell out quickly, so it would be a shame to buy at the standard earning rate. To check if it’s still available, tap the envelope icon in the middle of the menu bar at the bottom of the app and see if the deal is listed there. Sometimes it’ll sell out before Pepper Rewards actually sends out an email about the deal.
Seeing as with these deals you normally have to wait 2+ weeks to earn the bulk of the bonus points, be sure to evaluate your risk tolerance in case you don’t receive those payouts for one reason or another.
