Hilton Amex Offer: Spend $100+, get $40 back (targeted)

3

There’s another targeted Amex Offer for Hilton properties in the US and US Territories and Canada. However, in contrast to many Hilton Amex Offers that are limited to specific brands, this one is valid for almost the entire portfolio (except for Hilton Grand Vacations)…which makes it much more appealing and easy to use.

There are several different versions, but the best is 40% back on $100+ in spend up to a maximum of $40 total.

  • Offer does not apply to advance purchase rates, including Advance Purchase, Save Now & Pay and Non-refundable rates.

Quick Thoughts

The combination of being able to use this at almost any Hilton brand and having only a $100 spend threshold will make it very useful for a lot of folks during the holiday travel season.

The offer will be most rewarding if you have any Hilton cards that were targeted. If you have the Hilton Aspire card, that would be the best option as you would also earn 14x on the Hilton spend. The Aspire card comes with a $200 twice per year credit towards stays at Hilton resorts and it should be possible to stack the resort credit with this Amex Offer. If you spend $200 on room rate and room charges, it might have a negative net cost ($200-$100 Amex Offer-$200 resort credit).

I say might as I don’t know for sure if they’ll stack when spending only $200. If American Express deducts the $200 resort credit first, there’s a chance they’ll regard this as not spending $100towards the Amex Offer. If that’s the case, you’d need to spend $300 in order to trigger both the statement credit and the Amex Offer. However, I suspect that’s not the case and that you could trigger both when spending only $200 (would love to hear DP’s on this if anyone’s tried it).

What a surprise, not on my Surpass card.

Ivan

I’ve never had a Hilton offer on my surpass card. Don’t see this one in any of my cards.

Gary

Does the credit work when buying a gift card or is that excluded under the terms of the offer?
