Update: Offer terms indicate that only purchases specifically in the “Shop Small x ByBlack Amex holiday curation” at shopsmall.showfields.com qualify. That checkout system appears to be somewhat different than Showfields.com, so I suspect that you actually do need to go directly through that URL. Furthermore, there is no promo code field to enter the 15% off coupon from Showfields email and text alerts, so that discount will not stack.
There is a new broadly-available offer out this week that’s good for $15 back when you spend $20 or more at shopsmall.showfields.com or via the merchant app. There are plenty of gifts available that could make this a very easy offer to use at very good value.

Key Terms

Quick Thoughts
Getting 75% back is a fantastic offer in terms of percentage. In this case, it means you could actually get a couple of stocking stuffers cheaply. I tested by putting an $11 item in my cart assuming that shipping would likely get me close to $20 (it said that shipping would be calculated at checkout). I don’t know if it is because I am located in New York State, but much to my surprise shipping was free.
I’ll therefore easily find one or two small gifts for my wife with this deal since she is always happy to have extra skincare products around and there seemed to be plenty of those to be had.
That said, Showfields has a wide range of products ranging from fashion to home goods to things that may satisfy your sweet tooth. Since we each have this offer on our own Amex cards, I may need to convince my wife to buy me a gift also.
You can also get 15% off by signing up for email and text alerts (I kept seeing a pop-up for this while navigating the site — maybe try adding something to your cart if you haven’t yet seen it). I also saw plenty of other more expensive items where 15% and then $15 back would make for similarly good even if not nearly-free deals. Update: The promo code field is missing when shopping through shopsmall.showfields.com, so this will not stack.
It’s worth syncing this one up and taking a look because there were lots of items where this offer could make for a great deal.

Why not Latino or Asian owned? Sound racist, just sayin.
This offer is made to specifically highlight black-owned business, which were disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. This post should also reflect this and bring awareness to and support these institutions.
Also, to me it reads that the offer is only available through the specific shop small showfields link, which is limited to Black-owned business. It isn’t available for all the shops listed on Showfields.
I’m passing on this deal, but the terms also say that purchases on the app will work.
I don’t feel like installing the app to confirm this, but my speculation is that any purchase on the app (black-owned business or not) will appear the same way, which would lead me to infer that probably any type of purchase on the regular showfields.com website would work too.
Like I said, I’m just giving this deal a pass, so I won’t find out. I browsed the cheap stuff on the official Amex link and didn’t find anything I wanted. And I don’t feel like dealing with Amex CS if it turns out I’m wrong and that a regular showfields.com purchase doesn’t actually work.
The offer specifies that it can only be used for “purchases online at the Shop Small® x ByBlack Amex holiday curation powered by SHOWFIELDS at shopsmall.showfields.com“, which does not offer the products you show in your post. Just sayin’…
Would this work well with the Amex plat I got with the resy offer? 15 x points on the original amount then the Amex rebate?
