UPDATE – To celebrate The Killers’ American Express UNSTAGED performance, Cardmembers can also go here to download an exclusive remix of “Runaways” on iTunes for FREE! (Thanks, Nicole!)

As I posted back in July, American Express cardholders can snatch up some great deals and special offers for restaurants, retail stores, gas stations and more when they sync an eligible American Express® Card with Twitter.

Here’s what you need to do…

* Head over here to sync your eligible American Express Card with Twitter
* Tweet the special offer #hashtags to load exclusive Cardmember offers directly to your Card
* Snag an automatic statement credit when you make a qualified purchase in store or online with your synced Card

Check out two offers that you can currently snag…

* Get $5 back on your next in store $5+ purchase at McDonalds
* Get $20 back on your next $100+ purchase at Kenneth Cole

If you’re a current American Express cardholder and have taken advantage of these special offers in the past, I would love for you to share your experience!

(Thanks, Clip and Follow!)

    I never received the offer, messaged Amex and they gave the credit to our acct

    I did the McDonald’s offer the first time you posted it and it worked right away. I was reluctant to try this out so I only made a purchase just a few cents over $5 and maybe the next day it was credited to my account. Thanks for telling us about this deal!

    Use it to buy a $5 McDonald’s gift card!

    • I Love Shoes

      Very Smart Idea. Thanks. I Guess I will do it with all of the other offers and use them during Black Friday. Thanks for the tip.

    The sync deals with Amex are AWESOME! I’ve done a lot of them, and they always credit correctly. Saved $125 already on these types of deals (McDonald’s, Ticketmaster, etc). LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

      I have been a long time holder of an AMEX card but don’t know how to Tweet, is it difficult to figure out how to get these deals if I open a Twitter account?

  5. kevin

    Does the card have to be a credit card or can it be a gift card?

  6. catie

    If you have a prepaid card will that work?

    • Autumn

      No.

    Does anyone know how long it takes to receive the reply tweet? I don’t know twitter well and am wondering if I’m not tweeting it correctly because I haven’t gotten a reply tweet. Thanks!

    • Autumn

      Usually right away! Just click on retweet right under their offer on Amex Twitter page. HTH!

      • Betsy

        Thank you! I just tried that, but it didn’t work either. I think I’ve got a gliche, and have contacted customer service. Thanks for the tip anyway! It was worth a try!

    I’ve used it for about 6 or 7 deals and it’s worked perfectly each time. This weekend I used the Macaroni Grill deal and I used a coupon for $7 off then we saved $15 after spending $50. So a total of $22 savings. Very very smart promo!

  9. SJ

    Just opened a Twitter account to do this…Do you type the # also or just the letters? I see people are talking about receiving a reply, does that come right to where it says “TWEETS”?

    • SJ

      oh my, learning…do you tweet the offer #AmexMcDs from your home page or on the AMEX offers page?

    I used it for the McDonalds offer and the gas offer from Shell. I got $5 back from McDonalds & $5 back from a gas purchase of $25 and it credited back my account within a day or two it was great!
