American Express has added Boxed.com as an additional option for the $10 monthly dining credit on the Amex Gold Card. List of available options is now as follows: Boxed, Grubhub, Seamless, The Cheesecake Factory, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Shake Shack.
You can see the option showing live on the Amex site. | Press Release
Boxed is a wholesale goods website, trying to be like the online version of Costco. I’m unsure why that’s considered dining, but I guess they do sell some food.
Anyway, this is a terrific new addition as some people aren’t into dining or don’t like those specific restaurants, and this expands the list with an easy online option. Just be aware there is a $49 free shipping minimum on Boxed.com. Amex regularly comes out with Amex Offer deals at Boxed, and hopefully those will show up on the Gold card as well. There’s also regularly nice promo codes and portal offerings to stack with.
Today, Amex also added back the option – for a limited time – to get the Gold card in Rose Gold.
All in, there are three bits of news today on the Gold card:
- Addition of Boxed.com for $10 dining credit.
- Amex also added back the option – for a limited time – to get the Gold card in Rose Gold.
- Expansion of 4x Dining category from U.S. to being available worldwide.
