We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Earn Up to 1,000 AMEX Membership Rewards Points (or Cash Back) for a Few Easy to Make Payments (Targeted)

    • Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money.

    Update: One or more card offers in this post are no longer available. Check our Hot Deals for the latest offers.

    Check your AMEX account for an offer to earn bonus points (or cash back) for mobile wallet purchases using Apple Pay.

    I was targeted for the $2 back per $5+ payment on up to 5 transactions.  But if you have a card that earns AMEX Membership Rewards points, like The Platinum Card® from American Express, you might qualify for a similar offer to earn 200 AMEX points instead of the $2 cash back.  For me, 200 AMEX points are worth more than $2, so that’s an even better deal.

    With just 5 small payments you could earn 1,000 AMEX Membership Rewards points

    Easy 1,000 AMEX Membership Rewards Points (or $10 Back) With Apply Pay

    The biggest downside to this deal is that you’ll need to have an Apple device in order to use Apple Pay.  Even though Apply Pay isn’t as widely accepted as Samsung Pay, you can use it at a lot of popular stores like Whole Foods, Starbucks, Costco, and a bunch of online stores too.

    This is a targeted offer and the deal I got expires on September 30, 2019.  With it, I can earn a $2 statement credit per eligible $5 purchase using Apple Pay, and I can earn the $2 credit up to 5 times.

    With an alternate offer, you can earn 200 AMEX Membership Rewards points per eligible $5 purchase using Apply Pay up to 5 times.

    While you’re checking out your AMEX Offers, keep an eye out for all sorts of hotel deals (tons for Hilton).  You can see some of the deals here.  If you want to know more about AMEX Offers and how to use them, check out our guide to AMEX Offers.
