Get up to 50% off at Amazon with your American Express card

Key Facts

Right now, targeted American Express card members can save as much as 40% on their next Amazon purchase, for up to $50 in savings when you use Amex points to pay for at least a portion of your purchase at checkout through May 1, 2022.
To pay with the minimum number of points required, enter $0.01 in the points section at checkout, which will apply just 1 point to your payment, You can use any number of points you want, but if you don’t make this change, Amazon may automatically apply the maximum number of points to cover the entire purchase, so you’ll want to make sure to update the amount before you place the order.
So even if you don’t have anything to get at Amazon before May 1, you can always buy a gift card for yourself using the discount and bank the savings for later.
Amazon has been eagerly offers some lucrative promotions over the last few years, so keep your credit card accounts linked to your Amazon account, and if you’re targeted for any of these offers, make sure you use them before they expire on May 1.
