American Express Shop Small Promotion, Some $20+ Purchases Triggering Credit Twice

American Express currently has an offer where you can get $5 back when you spend $10 or more at select small businesses. We’ve previously covered that Fluz, eGifter, and Samsung Pay gift card purchases were triggering this offer. Interestingly some merchants are triggering this offer twice (e.g you spend $20 and get two $5 credits back). It’s unclear why this is happening and seems to be somewhat random.

My advice is to use the credits as advertised and even if you receive unexpected credits to still make 10 purchases of $10+ as American Express is known for clawing back credits like this when improperly used, even if their system is at fault.
