Get £5 American Express cashback at Tesco and £50 from NH Hotels

American Express has launched a new cashback deal with Tesco.
You need to check the ‘offers’ section of all of your online statement pages to see if you are targetted. If you are, I recommend clicking ‘save to card’ immediately as this will hit its registration cap of 20,000 cards very quickly. I had it on my Platinum card.
Once registered, you will receive £5 cashback when you spend £40 at Tesco before 30th October.
Even if you normally shop elsewhere, you could quickly pop in and grab a giftcard for use at another retailer you do use.
Remember that Tesco Clubcard points convert to Avios at the rate of 1 Clubcard point (= £1 spent) to 2.4 Avios or 2.5 Virgin Flying Club miles. Find out more at ba.com here and virginatlantic.com here.
Get £50 cashback at nhow and NH Hotels
Amex has also launched some additional hotel cashback deals. Most are quite niche, such as 10% back at Apex Hotels.
In terms of value, the best one is £50 cashback on £180 spend at NH Hotels.
It is valid at participating hotels across Europe, including the NH and nhow hotels in London.
This article explains how to earn Avios at NH Hotels. The NH Hotels website is here.
