Update: As per usual, it looks like there’s at least two different versions of this offer, one that’s good for maximum of 1,000 bonus points, one that’s good for 1,600. Let us know if you see any others and we’ll add them.
There is a new, targeted Amex offer out today that gives an extra 5x at Amazon.com on up to $200 in purchases (maximum of 1,000 bonus points). I’d recommend signing in and adding this sooner rather than later as these offers usually disappear quickly.

Quick Thoughts
This bonus tops out when spending only $200, a lower limit than some of the recent Amazon offers we’ve seen. But it’s still a nice, easily-attainable sweetener for Amazon spend, especially with Prime Day coming up in a couple of weeks.
Regular gift card purchases, from either Amazon or from third parties, will earn bonus points. The only gift cards excluded are corporate or custom-designed cards.
I definitely recommend checking for this one sooner rather than later…the Amazon offers usually disappear fairly quickly. Sometimes, Amazon will have several variations of targeted Amex offers out at the same time, so let us know if you see a different one.

My wife got a version good up to 3000 points on her Platinum.
P1 and P2 each got 1000 point offers on our Biz Plats.
Not on Platinum’s for me. But I did get the $320 on EveryDay card.
Hi – would like to know if possible to determine – can I simply use Amazon Reload to load $200 (or however much my offer is limited to) to my Amazon Gift Card balance and get the 5X points?
I have received this offer in the past (didn’t realize I commented a year ago until I scrolled down) and did exactly as you described. It worked just fine and reloads do not appear to be restricted in the T’s and C’s of the offer.
We got the $320 version for P1 and P2. Struggling since Amazon was the category for Chase in 2nd Q and currently working off a targeted Amazon bonus from Bilt. That’s a lot of Amazon!
Thanks! I just checked and I got the $320 5X version for P1 but P2 only got a 2X offer, so I’ll skip that one, but load $320 onto my Amazon reload balance with P1 card! I figure I spend enough on Amazon that I won’t have a problem using the balance there however large it gets (within reason!), so it’s really just prepaying / giving Amazon an interest-free loan for some time
“Excludes corporate gift card and custom-designed gift card purchases” meaning I can’t buy Amazon e-giftcard with this offer?
I bought one giftcard before reading this post.. I received an email from Amex saying I recently used the offer. Am I not going to get +5 MR points for this?
Yes you can do a balance reload.
I already bought the giftcard and used it..
My offer shows up to 3,000 points on my Platinum??
Player 2 only received 2x offer on her Gold, unfortunately.
Lucky you!
Which AMEX cards are needed to get these targeted offers? Do any of them work or only certain ones?
You just have to look through all your cards to see which offers you received, if any. P2 got the “5X up to 1600 MRs” on his AU card on my Everyday Preferred card.
Got this on Gold, up to 1600 points.
I have this offer on EveryDay Preferred, but it is for up to 1600 points ($320 spend)
i got that offer on my BBP so thats 7x MR points, very sweat ! i wonder if that will work for amazon reloads or wholefoods pickup orders placed on amazon.com …any data points ?
So will a regular Amazon gift card/balance load work?
Have the offer on Gold, not on Green.
had it on personal gold and biz plat.
Have the offer on Gold, not on Plat.
This offer on Gold. P1+P2
