It is called Shop Small and is a now-historic initiative of American Express designed on the one hand to help small merchants get more customers and on the other hand to persuade owners, And possible new starters, that American Express credit cards are accepted much more than you think.
In this article:
This initiative, which like all American Express offers must be activated in advance, it allows Receive €5 cashback for up to 5 times when spending at least €20 at one of the many participating merchants.
This offer can be found in so many countries and the rules are more or less the same all over the world, the only thing that changes is the currency.
The promotion is valid from April 27 to June 21, included. The only other rule is that the 5 transactions must be made at five different merchants. However, it is possible to activate this offer on all American Express cards you have in your portfolio.
To help cardholders, an updated map has also been developed that allows them to see who merchants are accepting the card and participating in the Shops Small promotion
