Save up to $60 at Amazon When Redeeming Amex Points [Targeted]

Prime Day is here, but we can help you save even more money than the deals you’re seeing advertised. American Express and Amazon are offering targeted discounts to customers who link their personal Amex cards to Amazon. The discounts range in amount but could be very significant depending on your targeted offer.

If you’re lucky, you may be able to score up to $60 off by using 714 Amex Membership Rewards points.

However, you may find that your discount is for less and your points requirement is more. Not all offers will be worth it, but for some, this is a great deal.

Let’s take a look at everything you need to know.

Amazon Offer Details

The first thing you should do is visit this dedicated Amazon promotional page to see if you were targeted. If you’re eligible for this promotional offer, you must activate it in order to save money, so make sure to do so before making any purchases.

The amount of savings you can expect will vary based on the offer you’re targeted for. However, numerous consumers have reported saving anywhere from 15% to 60% — often with a maximum discount of $60. The current promotion lists an end date of December 31, 2025, or when “46,647 customers have redeemed the offer” — whichever happens first.

This promotion could result in significant savings, so check to see whether you’re eligible before making any Amazon purchases.

If you are targeted, ensure the products added to your cart are sold and shipped by Amazon (not all products on Amazon are), as third-party products won’t be eligible for the discounted savings.

Minimum Points Requirement Added

When it’s time to check out, you’ll be given the option to pay with Amex Membership Rewards points. This time around we have been seeing targeted point minimums to activate the discount.

To be clear, these Amazon discounts can still be a good deal. They just might not be as incredible as they were when you could use just 1 point to activate them.

We value Amex points at 2.2 cents each, so spending 714 points (worth $116) to save $60 is still a pretty good deal. Check the terms of your specific offer to see if a minimum number of points is required.

Since the point minimums are targeted, you might see a bigger number, a smaller number, or perhaps no minimum at all.

It’s also worth noting that we don’t recommend redeeming Amex points on Amazon in general. If you’re targeted, using the bare minimum for this offer is an exception. Just don’t redeem more than the minimum number of points, as the value proposition goes down from there — and there are more valuable ways to use your points.

Final Thoughts

Many consumers shop on Amazon regularly, and this offer to pay with Amex Membership Rewards points to receive a discount can provide significant savings.

Be sure to link all of your Amex cards to see if you’ve been targeted, and then act quickly to take advantage of the discount.
