American Express has launched into H2 2021 with a bang. For all their cardmembers, American Express has offered the Shop Small for INR 1000, Receive INR 500 promotion valid through November 2021. For Platinum and Gold Cardmembers, American Express launched the new Salon Cashback promotion in association with Lakme Salons, while continuing the earlier Salon Cashback with Truefitt & Hill. Now, there is more in store for the American Express Platinum Reserve Credit Card and American Express Platinum Travel Credit Card holders.

Get up to INR 5,000 as cashback on Platinum Reserve Credit Card

The new More Value for Platinum Reserve promotion that has been launched in August 2021, for the American Express Platinum Reserve Credit Cardmembers and will be valid till November  7, 2021. This promotion is now available in the Amex Offers section for cardmembers.

The promotion needs to be saved on the credit card (explained here). Once saved, cardmembers receive a 25% cashback on their purchases from Flipkart, MakeMyTrip and Zomato, up to an amount of INR 5,000.

Here are the salient terms of this promotion:

• Offer valid for payments made online at flipkart.com, makemytrip.com, zomato.com or in-app. Not valid for payments made in-person.
  • Flipkart: Excludes payments made upon delivery.
  • MakeMyTrip: ‘PayLater’ payment option is only valid for Hotel and Flight bookings where payment is made by 07/11/2021.
