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.

A healthier option is to create separate user names & passwords, & make an Excel sheet with all information,
if you use the number from the card (each card is numbered) no need for an excel sheet

You are correct, but with Excel there are other benefits, what I do is, I have a column for each card, and when I add the offer, I make the cell background red, then, when I redeem the offer, I make it yellow, then when Amex gives me the credit, I make it green, like this I can keep track which cards still needs to be applied/redeemed/credited. this way I'm getting a very clear view on all accounts.

You can manually write "redeemed" or something like that.
Chrome
It works for me. What happens when you try?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Chrome
Works for me, too.
Can u please explain the mtm I still don't have it klur
amex login. it opens to card #1 of the login. scroll down to card offers, but don't click on any yet. 
new tab. amex. click"you are currently logged in". you will be on the page with card #1`.  click the picture of card #2 on the top right.  scroll down to card offers, but don't click any yet.
new tab. amex. click"you are currently logged in". you will be on the page with card #1`.  click the picture of card #3 on the top right. make sure you are on the 3rd card, not accidentally either of the other 2 cards.  scroll down to card offers, but don't click any yet.
continue to open a new tab for each card on the login.
when you find an offer you want. scroll to it in each tab/ card page, but don't click until you're set up in all the tabs/pages.  Then click, next tab - click offer. next tab - click offer. etc.

Just saved the $25 off $100 verizonwireless and the 10% off cable satellite to same card(s). Made a payment of $100 to Verizon (FIOS not wireless). I know I'll get $10, curious if I'll get $35, I'll report back.

You get an email to view the e-GC. The link in the email instead on bringing up the e-GC says not activated.

You do have to rush. Otherwise the browser will refresh to the main card of that account
-1. I do mtm with 100 plus accounts and it never refreshes to original carryout just Gotta keep moving so it doesn't time out and sign you out.
A healthier option is to create separate user names & passwords, & make an Excel sheet with all information, then whenever there is an offer, go through each user, You can add the offers calmly & not on a rush,  :D
When dealing with dozens or hundreds of cards hat can take a tremendous amount of time to have new logins for each card.

To mark as redeemed I download my amex transactions to cvs periodically and then lookup the card number in the list to see if I made the purchase and if I got the credit.
