New Amex statement credits

Saw this as a condition for the Shop Small promo
Offer Terms

  • Offer is limited to a maximum $50 credit per Card and $5 credit per participating Shop Small business.

Booooo!
 
is AMEX towards the 1.81% mark? if so, not worthwhile for me.
Also, be aware creditrewards appear to hold you funds for up to four business days before moving it on to the biller, so you need to initiate payment in advance of its due date and allow for weekends and public holidays..

e.g. If you have a payment due Monday 15th June, it is already too late (today being Wednesday 10th). And watch for long weekends; a payment initiated on June 5th might not be completed until the 12th.
 
Got Small Shop on my Primary Explorer card, but only 2 out of the 4 supplementary cards. Seems odd.

I am the same - all primary cards but only 50% of the supps. Nothing obvious about why some supps are excluded.

I used AMEX chat to get more info and got this:

' I’d like to inform you that the Shop Small Offer enrollment starts at about 5:00 pm AEST. I’d request you to kindly keep a close watch on your online account / Amex App and enroll for the offer as soon as it goes Live. '

I'm reading that the cap is 300,000 cards.

T&Cs make no mention of a cap for this offer.

Like some others, received on some cards but no call supps....yet.

300,000 limit indicated to me by AMEX.

Same info is on multiple other sites.

But remember, according to AMEX this offer hasn't yet opened!

I'm not disputing what they told you. Here is a snip from the sign-up offer from the Amex website. When there is a cap, it's clearly mentioned.

This one is a no brainer!
$400 of groceries by 27/08 - won't even need to try/think to do this one. Seems multiple transactions to make the total are fine too.

...
  • Woolworths
    • Not valid at Caltex Woolworths or Caltex Woolworths Metro locations.
    • Not valid for gift cards purchased online.
    • Not valid for payments to Woolworths Insurance, Woolworths Mobile.
...
Just providing a datapoint: The highlighted exclusion may not be applied.
 
Spent at 2 Shop Small shops on Wednesday, both transactions has posted. Didn't get the credit. Anyone else experiencing this? I know technically it could take up to "90 days" but usually the credit posts as soon as the transaction leaves pending.

I think they will show up tomorrow. I did David Jones purchases on Mon and Tues that provided credits overnight Wed and Thu. I have 3 SS purchases from Wed so expect to see 3 credits tomorrow.

Same here - no credits yet, even from purchases made on the first day of Shop Small. Will be keeping an eye out...
