Most credit card issuers are offering some nice bonuses to make up for the lack of ability to use travel benefits at this time. This week is the last window you have to sign up for this American Express offer that is an easy way to get $50 back while supporting small businesses.
What are the details?
Now through September 20 you can get a $5 statement credit after using an Amex card enrolled in this offer. You will need to make a single purchase of $10 or more directly with any small business in the U.S. on the “Shop Small Map”. This offer can be done up to 10x for a total credit of $50.
How Do I Sign Up?
The process is simple and can be completed in 3 easy steps as shown below. Follow this link to enroll. Make sure to do it now since you have to enroll by July 26 to be eligible!
What Businesses are Eligible?
Amex offers a trusty map on its website which makes it easy to find the participating retailers. My favorite brewery, sub shop, and local restaurant are all participating. This will make it easy for us to hit the $50 max credit across all of our family’s Amex cards. You can find the map here.
A Solid, Simple Offer
This is a really nice offer and should be fairly simple for most Amex cardholders to benefit. Sign up now and you have 2 months to max out the benefits!

Can it be used at the same business multiple times?
It can! It will need to be separate transactions but you could go to the same business 10x.
