[Expired] Last Call To Use the $200 Dell Credit on Your Amex Business Platinum Card

Cardholders of The Business Platinum Card^® from American Express currently have access to up to $200 in Dell statement credits through June 30, 2025 (enrollment required). Starting on July 1, the way this credit works will change, which we’ll discuss below.

Now that we are nearing the end of June, the deadline to use your Dell credit of up to $200 is approaching.

If you haven’t used it already, here is how you can do so and how you can help stack your purchase for added rewards or savings.

How To Activate the Amex Dell Credit

The deadline to use your Amex Business Platinum card‘s Dell statement credit for the first half of the year is June 30, 2025. You can earn a maximum of $200 in statement credits, based on how much you spend with Dell.

The transaction does not necessarily need to be posted to your card by that date, but as long as the purchase date for your transaction occurred on or before June 30, you should receive your credit. Note that American Express states that it can take 2 to 4 weeks to receive your statement credit, though it often posts much faster than this. Plus, Dell usually doesn’t charge your card until your product ships, so take that into consideration to ensure you get credit for this benefit before June 30.

Your statement credit is valid only on purchases made directly with Dell Technologies or at dell.com. It is not valid on online purchases shipped outside of the U.S. or purchases from unauthorized resellers.

Before you can use your credit, you need to activate it. To do this, log into your account on the American Express website and click on the Benefits tab. From there, scroll down until you see the Shop Dell Technologies tile and click on it to enroll in the benefit. You’ll only need to do this once to be eligible to use the credit twice each year.

How To Stack Your Dell Credit for Extra Rewards or Savings

There are 2 things you should be doing regularly when you make purchases using one of your American Express cards. The first is checking your Amex Offers for added deals that often present the opportunity to save even more money or earn additional Membership Rewards points (enrollment required). There may be Amex Offers for Dell that would be perfectly timed for use in conjunction with your Dell statement credit of up to $200.

Another great resource to stack this deal is going through Rakuten. For those unfamiliar, Rakuten is a shopping portal that allows you to earn cash-back or Amex Membership Rewards points (for those with a qualified account) on your purchases.

Here, you can see how you can easily click through Rakuten before making your Dell purchase to use your statement credit of up to $200. For doing so, you can earn either 5% cash-back or 5x Membership Rewards points — all on a purchase that will be credited back to you anyway.

Changes to the Dell Credit in July

American Express announced changes to the Dell and Adobe credits earlier this year, and those changes will take place on July 1, 2025. Specifically for the Dell benefit on the Amex Business Platinum card, here’s how you will use this benefit going forward:

• Get up to $150 in statement credits on U.S. purchases made directly with Dell.
• Earn an additional $1,000 statement credit after spending $5,000 or more on Dell purchases from July 1 to December 31, 2025, plus each calendar year thereafter.

Final Thoughts

Receiving up to $200 in Dell credits in the first half of this year is one of many benefits of the Amex Business Platinum card and can go a long way in helping to offset the card’s $895 annual fee (rates & fees).

If you’ve put off this benefit until the last minute, make sure you make a qualifying Dell purchase purchase by the June 30 deadline — and don’t forget to check your Amex Offers and Rakuten while you’re at it.
