New Amex statement credits

[MathNerd]

Here's a funny (and slightly strange?) AmEx Statement Credit promotion:

Spend NZ$25 or more, get AU$5 back

This offer is titled "Welcome to NZ Amex Offer" in the Offer Confirmation email.

Offer Details:
Save the offer to your eligible Card and spend NZ$25 or more, in one or more transactions, in-person, online or in-app at American Express accepting merchants by 31/12/2018 to receive a AU$5 credit, up to 6 times. Exclusions apply.

Also, I can confirm that a single NZD 150 charge will trigger the maximum AUD 30 credit (though no email confirmation is received like other promos). Could be a good way to get a discount on paying for anything (literally) in NZD.

Has anyone found a way to use multiple AMEX payments with woolworths online? to use up the $40 - $10 credit? So far I have found that if I enter the gift card amount first, then I can get it to only take $40 off of the AMEX. Was hoping to use 2-3 credits per transaction.

Confirming that Flight Centre GCs do trigger the soon-to-expire offer. $2 surcharge a giftcard but they did let me split payment. 3 year expiry

I bought the flight centre egiftcards online and there were no surcharge.

Are you seeing Boozebud on your account? None of my cards are displaying it and I can't seem to find a manual enrollment link.

It was only on a couple of my accounts. The rest were on all my accounts.

Do any of these places sell visa gift cards or similar that anyone knows of? I’m aware of the issues with HN.

Online GCs with HN were ok for me last time round

Could not register Business cards to this, but personal cards worked fine.

Expensive microwave if you are going to use a statement credit. I don't think I have ever spent more than $100 on one.

This is what happens when offers are Ozbargained. I saved the Harvey Norman offer but can't think of anything to buy. My brother just spent $250 cash on a dehumidifier at Good guys.
