There is a new, targeted Amex Offer out that’s good for $40 back when you spend $200+ at Dell.com. While these targeted Dell offers come out a lot, this is noteworthy in that the spend required to hit the bonus is much lower than usual and looks like it’s found on both personal and business Amex cards. This means that it’s possible to stack this with the Amex Business Platinum’s $200 Dell credit.
The Deal
- Get a one-time $40 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $200 in one or more purchases online at Dell.com by 9/1/2023 (enrollment required).
Key Terms
- Expires 9/1/23.
- Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem.
- Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible.
- Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels.
- This offer does not apply to refurbished items, systems or spare parts and is not valid for online auctioneers, Professional Associations, or other Dell Member Purchase Programs. Excludes all e-gift card and gift card purchases, international transactions, international contact center, Global events, Dell Financial services, Dell Outlet for Home, Dell Outlet for Work, Dell PartnerDirect, Dell Premier, Dell Premier Connect, Dell Premier Select, and authorized Dell® retailers.
- Not valid on purchases shipped outside the US, Puerto Rico, USVI and Guam.
- Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 9/1/23.
Quick Thoughts
Often, Dell Amex offers are for $500+ of spend, with 20-25% off (ie, $120 off $599, $200 off $800, etc). While this is only 20%, the lower spending threshold is extremely useful.
But it’s much better if you find it on a Business Platinum, as it will stack with the $200 twice-yearly Dell credits that are a feature of the card. If you have a one (or several), take a look to see if it’s there.
Now, if only we could get Xbox Gift Cards back in stock.

That’s only as good as your ability to actually get a Dell order shipped. It’s a fight every time. They labeled me as a reseller even though I truly am not. Totally baseless and ridiculous. Have to take another fight with them for a laptop order they canceled yesterday. Probably planning to complain to Amex and to BBB and possibly take them to small claims locally if I can prove jurisdiction. They already cost me $600 in lost credits in 2022 and 2023 isn’t looking any better atm.
Tim, if I have no use for any more Dell items or XBOX cards, have you found any good way to sell these? I have tried buying some fairly hot items (SSDs) from Dell and selling on eBay – not great as the costs are quite high. The best I have done is get about $150 for my Dell $200 credit. Now that I have 6 of these, it’s getting more serious.
When I bought the Xbox gift card on Dell, I was given a license key on the Dell Digital Locker and told to redeem it via Microsoft’s website. How are you liquidating these on gift card sites? I don’t see anywhere to get a PIN. thanks.
Recommended sites to sell Xbox gift cards? I know there are many, but any specific ones you’ve used?
$100 is the largest donomination I can find in the XBox gift cards. The code only applies to one item, thereby only giving me $10 off. Do you do multiple purchases to get $10 off on $225 – or am I missing something?
Yep, you got it. You can buy 2×200 and 1×25 and get 10% off each one to get $22.50 total discount. It’s a pain that you have to make a separate transaction for each one.
If this offer is not on your Amex Business Plat card, one other option is to split the payment on a $400+ Dell.com order i.e. $200 on Biz Platinum for the Amex credits and $200 on personal order to trigger the Amex offer.
That’s a great idea.
That’s what I did. I never get these on business platinum, only others
If I was buying something on Dell for $800 and wanted to stack it with a top cashback offer of 8% back – could I put $200 on amex personal (to get $40), and then $600 on amex biz and have the purchase started from the Dell top cashback link?
This isn’t a business card offer, so this is half-irrelevant.
It’s on both personal and business cards. We activated it on my wife’s Business Platinum this morning.
Lucky her. It’s not on my Biz, only Personal.
Also found $75 off $150 on Verizon.
Not on any of 5 Bus Plat cards, but it is on 2 Personal Plat cards … so not much use for me.
Terms you posted say “ Excludes all e-gift card and gift card purchases”?
Yes, they all say that, but it usually only applies to Dell gift cards, not Xbox
