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.

Found the Amazon offer for 2ppd on one of my BPs, checked the other, and it had it as well. Added it to one, and it disappeared from the other. These are 2 separate accounts under the same login. Is this new, or am I just late to the party? (I haven't been following the Amex offer discussions much recently, so apologies in advance if it's the latter)

I saved it on a Blue Cash Preferred AU. It is also mentioned in https://www.dansdeals.com/more/amex-offers/targeted-amex-offers-roundup-save-amazon-walmart-target-wayfair-staples-marriott-kimpton-cell-phone-bills/

Spend $75 or more, get $10 back
Select U.S. Department Stores - Online
EXPIRES
12/31/2019

DETAILS
Get a one-time $10 statement credit by using your enrolled Card to spend a minimum of $75+ in one or more transactions online at select U.S. Department Stores by 12/31/2019. See terms for exclusions.
OFFER TERMS
Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express Cards are eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only for online purchases made in US dollars only at the following US Department Stores: Bealls Florida, Belk, Bloomingdale’s, Boscov’s, Century 21, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Kohl’s, Lord & Taylor, Macy’s, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Stein Mart. Excludes all in-store purchases, purchases made through third party providers, international shipping, and purchases of gift cards. Not valid on purchases made online but picked up in-store or on orders shipped from a store. Excludes Nordstrom Rack, Saks Off 5th, Neiman Marcus Last Call, Bunulu, Kohl's Off/Aisle, Macy’s Backstage, and Macy's Wine Cellar. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled account must be active, in good standing and not in default to receive the statement credit. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 12/31/2019, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. Merchants are assigned industry codes based on what they primarily sell. Your transaction will not qualify if the merchant’s industry code is not eligible. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer. POID: GDRG:0001
They cancelled part of my order due to OOS, bringing the total to slightly under $75. Now I have to make a new small purchase to reach $75 but I will not get free shipping since there's a $75 minimum. I would be inclined to buy a gift card for the difference. Do they enforce the gift card exclusion for this offer? After all, it is all on macys.com and does not go through cashstar or anything like that.

I was able to save the Amazon offer on different cards under same accounts, one account x 3 , another x 2.

Opera, same log in, no multi tab or anything, the offers were available on a few cards and all were saved separately and are still there, I was surprised and tried with the Staples offers but it did not work with these.

For the Dell offer (10% back) a few months ago, I clicked on it and assumed it was added,but it didn't add. I made a purchase before realizing the problem, and obviously didn't get the cash back.

 I chatted with AMEX and spoke to them on the phone, had them share my screen so they could observe that it didn't add to my account even when I clicked on it...they said since I had already made a purchase, they didn't think they could do anything, but they'd get back to me.

They never did get back to me, but when I reached out to them again, they said there's nothing they could do.

Any suggestions?
