The Offer
- Purchase Amex Business gift cards through the Topcashback portal and receive 2.25% back from the portal. Today May 5, 2015 only.
You can buy Business gift cards even if you don’t have a business and you can pay with a personal (non-business) credit card.
The Fine Print
- DO NOT use any promo codes as they will invalidate any Cashback via the portal.
- DO NOT purchase any denominations above $2,000 as they will NOT earn Cashback. You can purchase more than one card per transaction, e.g. you can order five $2,000 cards and get the portal cashback on the entire purchase.
- Not worth paying with a Citi credit card since there may be a cash advance fee.
- 2.25% Cashback is on Business Gift card only, personal gift cards will get the standard 1.5%.
Our Verdict
These 2% offers are coming often recently, though 2.25% is still slightly more and is worth considering.
What’s especially interesting is that just today Amex released a new offer of $10 off $200 for the purchase of Amex gift cards using a registered Amex card. We wrote various options of maximizing that offer and one of them is to use a portal to help offset some of the shipping/purchase fees that Amex charges. More details in our previous post here.
