Is there a list somewhere detailing which high Street (or otherwise) vouchers count towards minimum spend targets on Amex cards ?
If not, could you wonderful people start one by posting in here ?!
Along with any stipulations such as “only if bought in store” etc….On a related note, would buying Hilton or IHG points for example count as qualifying spend when trying to hit minimum spend targets ?
Cheers
Not sure any high street vouchers are excluded from points earnt on Amex. If you’re unsure just add a little bit of shopping on to the same transaction as vouchers / gift cards.
Purchasing Ihg or Hilton points usually goes through Rpoints site which I think do not allow Amex. I even find curve gives me issues so I tend to go visa /mc direct.
