A new Amex Offer for Dell has appeared on personal Amex cards: Spend $500 at Dell, Get $100. My wife found this offer on all of her personal cards, but I haven’t yet seen it on any of mine. My prediction is that Amex is slowly rolling out this offer and that I’ll see the offer on my personal cards sometime soon.
The Offer
Spend $500 or more, get $100 back at Dell.com. Expires 4/30/2021.
Details: Get a one-time $100 statement credit by using your enrolled Card to spend a minimum of $500 in one or more transactions online at Dell.com by 4/30/2021. See terms for exclusions.
Offer Terms:
Enrollment limited. 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. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid online only at dell.com US website, through the merchant mobile app or via phone at 1-877-350-0204. Valid only for purchases made directly with the merchant. Transactions through third party payment processors are excluded. 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 retailers. Not valid on purchases shipped outside the US, Puerto Rico, USVI and Guam. See merchant website for shipping policy. Some merchants may not ship to all areas. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 4/30/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer. POID: K1T3:0001
Quick Thoughts
Since Amex business cards have access to a similar offer (Get 10% back on purchases, up to $1,500), I don’t expect to see this one on any business cards. This one is better for those who can spend $500 (or just over that amount) at Dell since it’s then possible to earn as much as 20% back. While you can’t use this offer to buy Dell gift cards, in the past Xbox gift card purchased through Dell have counted as regular purchases. And now that Xbox gift cards can be used to buy hardware from the Xbox store (such as Xbox consoles), there’s more potential value in those gift cards than ever before.
Unfortunately, since the Amex Business Platinum card is a business card, you won’t be able to stack this offer with the Business Platinum card’s $100 per 6 months Dell rebate (but you can stack that with the 10% back Dell offer as long as you spend enough at Dell to avoid getting back more than you spent).

I think if you have some expensive item(s) eg over $1100, you want to buy from Dell. Dell lets you stack more than one credit card. So you could use the Amex Biz Plat $100 off combined with their 10% off offer, and then pay the rest with the card that has the new $100 off $500 for the rest for a nice stack
Yes, Dell will let you split any purchase across two credit cards.
small correction, you can use a total of three cards
Oops. Yes, thanks. You can split purchases across 3 cards.
Can you use Xbox love GCs to purchase a laptop or a Surface from a Microsoft Store?
I don’t think so. I think you’re limited to stuff found on the xbox store such as games, game consoles, and game accessories.

Greg — can you explain that last bit about stacking the business platinum $100 credit and the 10 percent offer? Are you saying you basically need to spend $111 or more?
yes exactly
