Our Verdict
The $40/1,000 version is especially nice. Personally, I found the 500 points offer on my Blue Business Plus card.
I’ll simply load up my Amazon balance (here’s our affiliate link to the reload page) three times for $50 each and be done with it. (In the past, it’s even worked with a single large purchase to get all the bonus points with one purchase, but I’ll do three purchases to be safe.)

Here’s an interesting one I just got in my AMEX Offers (not on the Amazon website): Earn 1,500 additional Membership Rewards® points (up to 3 times) after using your enrolled eligible Card to redeem a minimum of 7,143 points for $50 towards one or more qualifying purchases using “Shop with Points” online at Amazon.com or through the Amazon app by 9/30/2026. See terms. Obviously, this is a terrible deal, but interesting to see offers like these originate with AMEX offers as opposed to Amazon checkout.
No offers on any of my cards.
Don’t see this on my Hilton Honors.
Not on mine 🙁 I have the Morgan Stanley version of Blue Cash.
I had the $50/500pts version, and it worked to load $150 in one purchase. (I received 1500 points.)
Yes, tax counts toward the $40
Does sales tax get included in the amount? I’m buying something that cost $39.99. lol
Two gift cards posted separately? So they do combine?
I got spend $40 or more, earn 1K MR up to 3 times. Been purchasing various 3rd party gift cards on amazon, and just wanted to add another dp that the offer doesn’t need to be $40 x 3 transactions, but accumulates the total across purchases. So far I’ve bought two $25 GCs and one $50 GC all in separate orders and have received the 1K twice now.
Had the 50/500 on my BBP.
Thanks!
Ditto, though I would use it only on third-party GCs and only if they go on sale. Amazon credit is often not that difficult to find at 10% off or better.
Yep.
Bought 3x $40 Amazon gift cards, 3x 1,000 MR posted same day.
Gold personal $50 for 500 MR points x 3. Still better than my current freedom 5x. I’ll take it!
Do non-amazon giftcards trigger this credit?
On my Amex Gold: $150/1200MR, 3X
Showed up on Gold biz with the $40/500 MR x3, mehhhhhh
I have Spend $40 or more, earn 1,000 MR on EveryDay (no AF version).
Got $50 for 500MR on my and P2’s personal gold, nothing on my two biz gold or personal blue cash preferred. Used the DoC link to reload 3x on each card. Thank you!
Got spend $9500 get $95 for 3 times on my BCE, and spend $3500 get 3500 MR/Delta miles on other two cards. Dunno how to spend that much.
30-60 bucks minimum, depending on how you value you them.
Available on Green $40/1000MR points 3x. Also separate offer for $2000/1000MR points 3x.
Got it on Personal Gold (1,000 MR Points for $40+ in spend up to 3X)
yea any spend
Similar on my BCE, spend $1500/get $25 (1.67% cashback)
But what it’s worth for 3,000 total Membership Rewards points ?
just found out another offer from AmEx to earn 500 after deposit $25K. But no luck with this amazon deal sadly.
had this on my amex personal plat
Got $150 for 1,200 x3 with Amazon. Also an extra 5,500 MR for $10,500 of spend x3. One might be slightly better than the other.
