Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is happening now! Follow us as Greg, Nick, and Stephen compete to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines before November 23rd. Who will complete the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
Today only: TopCashBack is offering Business Amex gift cards for 2.25% cash back.
If you don’t already have a TopCashBack account, you can find a signup link and many other cool things here.
Notes
- Do not use a promo code to reduce gift card fees or for free shipping since that will invalidate your cash back (the Premium Shipping Plan is fine, though).
- Do not buy denominations higher than $2,000 (see: $2K denomination limit on Amex gift card cash back)
- Do not pay with Citibank credit cards since they sometimes charge cash advance fees.

Are personalized cards business or personal?
You can personalize both personal and business. Under the business tab select “custom message” and add your name as the message.
I’ve set my cash advance limit to zero on my Barclay Arrival +.
I’ve thus far been unsuccessful (four or so orders) in getting my order approved with this card, despite making sure that my billing address is perfectly matched.
Anyone recently been able to buy business amex GCs with a BA+ when cash advance limit is set to zero?
Arrival for me historically has required that you have enough available in your cash advance in order to process the order but when it actually posts, it posts as a purchase. Just placed a $20k order with my Arrival card without any issues.
Thanks, Ryan. I tried another order for the Chase SP, and it was also declined (12 hours later). Even though I copied the billing address directly from Chase. Grrr.
Did your $20K order go through?
Why am I being charged shipping even though I have the free shipping plan?
I have a Premium shipping plan.If I use a promocode given by Amex for free purchase…will I get a cashback ?
regards
Krisha
Don’t use a promo code. When you log into your Amex account the free shipping will be applied automatically and you’ll get cashback
Thanks for answering this.But actually i want to know if my cashback would get void from portals if I use a promo code for nullifying purchase fee…To be more precise,I mean to say avoiding purchase fee of 3.95 USD for AGC of 2000 usd
Regards
Krisha
Yes that would void the cash back
I too couldn’t access the $2000, so I assumed that AMEX did that on purpose, (never thought of them being “sold out”). More fees for them!
I had this issue at first too, but if you log into your amex acct once TCB takes you to the amex site and you order personalized cards, you can get the 2000 ones.
Thanks for pointing this out, Eddy! Worked for me.
Just went to purchase $2,000 gift cards and only the lower denominations, $1,000 and $3,000 were available. Apparently the $2,000 cards sold out? Anyone else having a different experience (after the time of my comment)?
I’m seeing the same thing
Do the custom message business gift cards, you can add your name as the custom message and also put in a custom denomination.
Woohoo! Finally I get to order at something other than 1.5%. Been waiting for this. Did 2x$2K order due to the requirement for signature above $5K.
Is AmEx likely to throw up any alerts if I do a 2nd one later in the day?
Thanks! I just got my 2nd RedBird! SWEET!
[…] This is just a heads up on the off chance you haven’t heard. It’s covered extensively on other blogs like Frequent Miler. […]
@Ted,
Yes you can order 3 $2K cards in one transaction. I don’t remember if the cards arrive the next day or the day after. It probably depends upon what time you place the order.
Also, what is the timeframe with shipping? If I order today and have overnight shipping, will it ship out today and arrive tmw? Or ship out tmw and arrive Friday? Thanks!
When the terms say, denominations over 2k does not earn cashback, that does not mean order total right? I should be ok with 3x $2000 GCs in same order? Thanks
Thanks for the tip. Just opened a cashback acct thru your link 🙂
When you scroll down after clicking the deal link on Amex’s website, the Amex bus gift card says you have to have a valid business name & address to buy the gift cards. How can a regular person still get 2.25%? Thanks! Great blog.
In the past I’ve had luck simply using my last name as the business and my SSN as the tax ID.
Thanks. I’ll try later today. I have min. Spend on 2 new cc.
So if I get 2 2k gift cards, can I split pay (on same order to avoid multiple shipping costs) on 2 cc or will Amex only let me pay with one card? Thanks again for the great blog 🙂
Is there a way to load the serve with this card? Have you heard of anyone trying to do that and failing?
I’ve heard of someone doing so in the past, but whenever I’ve tried it has failed.
