Amex Platinum Cardholders: Last Chance to Use These Expiring Credits!

If you hold The Platinum Card® from American Express (any personal version) or the Business Platinum Card® from American Express, now is the time to take action—valuable credits are expiring at the end of June 2025.

💼 For Business Platinum Cardholders: Use Your $200 Dell Credit Before It Drops

Currently, Business Platinum cardmembers enjoy $200 in Dell credits every six months. But starting July 1, 2025, the annual credit will drop to a maximum of $150 per year. That means this is your final opportunity to use the full $200 credit before it disappears.

How to use the Dell credit:

  • Purchase any item at Dell.com using your Business Platinum Card.
  • Don’t buy Dell gift cards—they won’t qualify.
  • Start with a cashback portal like Rakuten for extra savings.
  • Enroll in the Dell benefit first via your Amex online account.
  • Amex will automatically reimburse you within 3–7 business days.

💡 Tip: You can split payments across multiple cards and spread the $200 credit across multiple purchases. Just be careful not to wait until June 30, as Amex uses the post date for reimbursements.


👜 For Personal Platinum Cardholders: Don’t Miss Your $50 Saks Fifth Avenue Credit

Platinum personal cards come with a $100 annual Saks Fifth Avenue credit, split into two $50 credits: one for January–June, and one for July–December. The first $50 expires on June 30, 2025.

How to use the Saks credit:

  • Shop in-store or online at Saks Fifth Avenue.
  • Online orders under $300 may incur shipping fees, so plan accordingly.
  • Use a cashback portal like Rakuten to stack savings.
  • Avoid Saks Off 5th—only Saks Fifth Avenue purchases qualify.

💡 In-store secret: Buy Saks gift cards at a physical Saks Fifth Avenue store and get reimbursed—great for resale or future use.


⚠️ Don’t Forget to Enroll!

You must enroll in both the Dell and Saks benefits before making purchases to be eligible for reimbursement. Do this via your Amex online account or by calling customer service.


Final Tips

  • Amex reimburses based on post date, not purchase date.
  • You don’t need to spend the full credit in one transaction.
  • Take advantage of split payments and resale strategies to maximize value.

Use these credits before they vanish—June 30 is the deadline!
