Sadly the AMEX17PRIME deal is no longer working, but the other deal is still working. Follow us on Twitter so you don’t miss these great deals.
The Offer
- It’s currently possible for some users to get $55 off $60 on Amazon by combining two deals and using one Membership Rewards point. Not everybody will be eligible, but it’s worth trying. Here’s what you need to do:
- Go to this link to see if you’re eligible (there should be a button that says Click here to qualify if you’re eligible. If you’re not eligible it will say ‘Thank you for your interest in this offer. Unfortunately you are not eligible for this offer”
- Add $60 or more of eligible products sold and shipped by Amazon.com to your shopping cart.
- Go to your payment options and choose your linked AMEX card with Membership Rewards or link a card now
- Pay for at least a portion of your order with Membership Rewards points; you can use just use one point and pay the rest with the credit card (click ‘choose different amount’ to do this)
- Enter the promo code AMEX17PRIME in the box provided on the checkout page
- $55 of savings will be reflected on the final order checkout page.
The Fine Print
- As mentioned this is actually combining two deals, read our full post on each deal to know more:
Our Verdict
This is only good for items shipped and sold by Amazon and not everybody will be eligible but lots of readers are (it’s worth trying even if the AMEX17PRIME code wasn’t working before. If it still doesn’t work then read this post for more tips). As always the best option is to purchase something you want/need. The other option would be to purchase gift cards, electronic gift cards are probably your best bet as you can purchase a $60 gift card and pay $4.99 & one Membership Rewards points. You can view all the electronic giftcards Amazon sells by clicking here. Some of the more popular options are as follows:
- $60 Safeway e-gift
- $60 AirBnB e-gift
- $60 Uber e-gift
- $60 Hotels.com e-gift
- $60 Whole Foods e-gift
- $60 Lowes e-gift
- $60 Netflix e-gift

The $25 is only coming off if I add $70 to my cart.... no thanks
Karen, you only need 50 to get the 25 off. The extra 30 has expired.
Has anyone returned or exchanged their item and lost the credit? I want to exchange mine but worried will lose the credit as another member did when he returned his item.
Same. 30 off 60 not working for me, but 25 off 50 is good!
30 off 60 is dead for me as well, but 25 off 50 still working
Seems like mine expired too. "The promotional code you entered has expired." My screen shot clearly stated it won't expire till 12/31/17 though.
It's dead... says expired now.. others had it work on 4 accounts?!! darn, tried every day and no dice..
What one says expired? Screenshot
I just got the same message. The $25 offer is still valid, but inputting "AMEX17PRIME" into the promotions box gives a "The promotional code you entered has expired." message and does not take off the additional $30.
When using "AMEX17PRIME" I am getting the following message:
The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.
I am trying to buy a $60 uber e-gift card.
Any suggestions on how to get around this?
It works for all my four accounts, great deal, thanks DOC!
Amazing! Thank you. A $60 Airbnb card for $4.99. My lifelong dream is to buy you a drink (preferably with some sort of coupon/deal).
gosh that was a good tip, thx. 25+30 off paper towels, tp, etc. just has to come from amazon.com. used a single MR.
Well, this was a bonanza. 8 members of our Churn Team each got $60 Whole Food GC for $4.99. $480 in stuff for under $40. Thank you DOC, Amazon/Whole Foods and Amex!
