New American Express cashback deals including £50 back from Apple
Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission. See here for all partner links.
American Express has launched what I assume will be its final batch of ‘statement credit’ offers for the year. You can access these deals with either an American Express-issued card (British Airways, SPG, Gold, Platinum, Nectar etc) or with an Amex card issued by Lloyds, TSB or MBNA.
You can access these deals via the cardmemberoffers.co.uk website here.
The standout deal is:
£50 off a £500 purchase from the Apple website (2,000 people only, closes 31 December)
There are less exciting offers for:
Leon (£5 back when you spend £10)
Gaucho (£10 back when you spend £50)
Primark (£5 back when you spend £15)
….. amongst others. You should also take a look if you are planning to visit Nespresso, Dell, Heal’s, Laura Ashley, Fenwick, Bentalls, D&D Restaurants or Currys PC World.
You MUST register for EACH offer you want to use – the cardmemberoffers site has the relevant sign-up pages.
Don’t forget that the ‘Shop Small’£5 back on £10 spend’ deals are still running until the 21st, and the wide range of Heathrow / Gatwick / Stansted shopping offers – which require you to open a Foursquare account – run until the end of January. I got £5 cashback on my £10 Café Nero lunch in Terminal 2 on Tuesday.
