When reporting a new offer please post here http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=49544.0

To take advantage of an Amex offer, first save the offer to your card, then do the spending. There are a few ways to save offers to your card; http://www.amexoffers.com/ has links to most of them. Depending on the offer and depending on your Amex card, it may be available via none, one or more than one of these methods:

americanexpress.com web site
Log into the americanexpress.com web site. If you get the new version of the site, scroll down to Amex Offers & Benefits at the bottom of the page. If you get the old version, click the Amex Offers For You tab. You can also see on this web site which offers you already saved (even if you saved them via a method other than this web site) and which offers you already redeemed. This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express.
The maximum number of offer that the site will show you is 100. If you already have 100 available offers, there may be other offers that they are prepared to show you, but are not showing you because you already have the maximum. To see additional offers, save one or more of your available offers and then refresh the list (F5 in most Windows browsers).

Saving an offer on AmericanExpress.com to one of your cards will automatically make it unavailable for the rest of your cards linked to the same login. The way to get around this is by opening all of your cards in separate tabs and then saving the offer in each.  **

**Sign into different tabs?!?
Sign onto your Amex account. card #1 is on the page.  scroll to offers. note a good one. 
Open  tab 2: amex.com (or with Chrome, right click on the first tab and choose Duplicate) > you are already logged in.> go to my accounts > click on card #2  on the top of the page. scroll to offers. check for same good offer. 
Open tab #3. repeat as for tab #2. Repeat as necessary.
THEN: on tab #1 - click 'save' .  Then on tab #2 click 'save' . Then on each tab.
If you so desire: check on each card's 'saved offers' to check that it's there.

This link should take you to the Amex old layout,
which is much easier to scroll down through all the offers.

Amex® Mobile app
This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express. The login is the same as for the americanexpress.com web site.

Dedicated web site for enrollment
Some Amex offers, most notably Small Business Saturday, but also NYC Restaurant Week, Home Depot, Amazon and DirecTV, offer a dedicated web site where you could enter your card information to enroll.

For Bluebird/Serve cards
Amex offers can be saved via the bluebird.com web site. Go to Plan & Manage > Amex Offers. Amex offers can also be saved via the Bluebird mobile app.

For cards not issued by American Express (such as Amex cards issued by Citi, USAA, PenFed, Bank of America, etc.)
Add offers to your card at this site: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/network/shopping.html
You will be prompted for your name, card number and email address.

Are we expecting merchants to start processing thru chip technology anytime soon?
Eventually they're all supposed to.

I see that the cc issuers are trying to replace the old ones, but as a merchant I have yet to hear about any changes to the way we process

I recall reading that at a certain time all merchants are supposed to be switched over, which they won't be.

It will definitely change, the question is when.
All new charging terminals come with chip features.

The liability shift starts Oct 1 if a merchant swipes a card with a chip the merchant is liable if fraud occurs.

-1.
Only if the terminal doesn't have an EMV reader.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Apple pay makes EMV obsolete already.  It's far more secure, that's why the banks are pushing customers to use it.  Hopefully the number of stores that accept it will increase....

T&C says $25 off $45+
How can they know if it's actually a membership?
Or can it be other shopping as well, what about 'gift membership'
Can you do split tender in store?

Taken from the T&C of an Amex Offer: "In addition, in most cases, you will not receive the bonus points if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party." Does anyone know if swiping your card through Coin will prevent you from getting the Amex Offer? Seems from this that it will, but was wondering if anyone has any experience with this.

the million $ question is if its tweetable.. I saw in a different thread that not.. but I am not so sure pro or con.. If yes it requires some $ to be laid out but its a money maker definitely. Just a PITA to go in store with a ...... of CC's
