The Offer
Amex released today a great Amazon offer.
- Spend $60 or more on Amazon.com with a registered Amex card and receive a $15 statement credit.
This offer does not have a Twitter hashtag and is not showing on prepaid Amex accounts, but it seems to be showing on all cards in the Amex login. If you haven’t saved this one yet, I’d recommend saving it right away as we don’t know how long it will last.
Important: As always, be sure to open a separate tab for each card before saving it on any so that you’ll be able to get it on all cards, more details here.

Our Verdict
This is really a great offer. If you don’t want to spend $60 on each of your cards now, you can buy $60 Amazon e-gift cards on each registered card and lock in the 25% discount for the future.
If you don’t think you’ll need that you’ll need that much Amazon credit, you can buy third-party gift cards sold on Amazon instead. There are lots of options, including Nordstrom, Southwest, Staples, Office Max, Whole Foods, Starbucks, and many more.
Note: Amazon e-gift cards and some (or all?) e-gift cards can be purchased in exact $60 denominations. Physical gift cards usually skip from $50 to $75.
This is also a good opportunity to support your favorite blogger. Gift cards on Amazon do not earn cashback from any portals, but they do pay out to referring websites. We included our link to Amazon gift cards and third-party gift cards above and we appreciate if you use them.
