- Enroll and earn 7,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points after each $1,500 you spend in eligible purchases on your Hilton Honors American Express Card (“Purchase Requirement”) starting from the time you complete enrollment through 8/22/2019 (“Purchase Period”), up to a maximum of 21,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points. Enrollment period ends on 8/22/2019.
- If you reach the Purchase Requirement, the Hilton Honors Bonus Points will be credited to your Hilton Honors account6-8 weeks after 8/22/2019
Our Verdict
This works out to be an extra 4.67 points per $1 spent if you spend exactly $1,500 (or $3,000 or $4,500). Card normally earns 3x points per dollar spent on all purchases, 7x on hilton and 5x on superstores and warehouse clubs, restaurants located in the U.S., supermarkets located in the U.S. and on gasoline at gas stations located in the U.S.
Mine is 15,000 x 3 = 45,000 for $1,500 in spend each turn.
These promos are now so targeted that it’s frustrating to look for them — at least if you’re managing a family’s extensive AMEX portfolio (somebody needs to invent a script!). We’re 0 for 12 on the Honors cards, but I did discover that my wife was targeted for extra miles on supermarket spend on her DL AMEX card. I haven’t seen that one previously noted.
AMEX is frustrating in general because their offers are a scattered mess. I don’t know of a way to organize them by category, value or expiration. No time to repeatedly scroll through lists for each card.
Not sure where this line came from: “Card normally earns 4x points per dollar spent on all purchases, 7x on hilton and 5x on superstores and warehouse clubs, restaurants located in the U.S., supermarkets located in the U.S. and on gasoline at gas stations located in the U.S.”
No AF Hilton is 3x on everything, 5x on supermarkets, gas, restaurants, 7x on Hilton.
Could you please post a link also to register for this promo
Thanks
Did you read the post? It’s targeted. No direct link.
I believe it is 3 pts on non-bonus category spending, not 4pts.
