Update 12/6/18: Looks like the deal is now dead. If somebody gets it to work, please let us know.

Update 11/24/18: Reposting as some people have been able to do the deal a second time (for a total of $200 in discounts) others have been able to successfully use the code when it wasn’t possible before. Goodluck and report your successes/failures in the comments below.

[Update: Reposting as we added the promo code and some more FAQ below.]

When you click on the ‘Click to activate’ button your Membership Rewards points will be temporarily set as default payment method at checkout for a duration of six hours, unless you manually update your payment option. The promotion remains valid even after the temporary default setting lapses, until the end of the promotion period.

Our Verdict

Works on everything apart from Amazon & Visa gift card. Some interesting options:

F.A.Q’s

How can I make myself eligible for this deal?

If you don’t have a registered Membership Rewards card, add the card and register that for shop with points. In the past, the way it’s worked is that you have to wait 24 hours from registering the card until the activation link will show up.

Also, if the link doesn’t work, try the promo code: AMEXTURKEY5 and see if that works at checkout. Again, this offer may be targeted and may not work for everyone.

Do you need prime for this deal?

No, prime is not required.

Can the deal be used more than once?

Yes, a reader reports being able to use it more than once; you’re just limited by the $100 total discount.

Can I use a gift card to pay with Shop-with-Points purchase?

Yes, we describe a few methods to accomplish this in this dedicated post.
