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.

Has anyone tried using the Amex $15 off $75 cell phone bill offer on Verizon rewards purchases? They have GCs on there to popular stores (Gap, sephora)...

Does $50 off $250 Hotel work for reservations made through Priceline or Orbitz? Will it work on if multiple transaction combine to $250?
I had 25 off 100 booked on orbitz did not work

I just booked a prepaid rate for a stay at Hampton in June. I read on FT that we can double dip and take advantage of the Hampton (or Hilton) offer as well as the $50/250 hotel offer. The total was $281 and charged to the card immediately, so I SHOULD get $35 for Hampton and $50 for the hotel offer. However, the charge billed to "Hilton hotels" or something like that-- even though I booked it from Hampton's website (hampton.hilton.com). I suspect that I won't automatically get the Hampton credit, and the charge is too low to qualify for the Hilton credit ($60/300). Had I known the stay would be charged under the Hilton name, I would've booked the next higher room to get the $60 for Hilton.

BTW, if this stay charged as Hilton, how is AMEX supposed to distinguish between the different Hilton brands? Would my stay be charged as Hampton if it weren't a prepaid rate?

I prepaid $500  my Verizon wireless bill. And the system won't accept payment after that. Is there other way to use Verizon $10 off $75 offer? Thanks!

I have the same question. I called my local right aid. manager said that if I buy a ride aid gift card, I can only pay in cash. So this deal is not really worthwhile.
