If you haven’t yet used The Business Platinum Card® from American Express‘ Dell benefit for this half of 2023, the next week or so could be a potentially lucrative time to take advantage of it.
Amex Business Platinum Dell Benefit
The Business Platinum Card® from American Express members are entitled to biannual $200 statement credits for qualifying purchases made through Dell. The first $200 is available from January through June. The next two $200 worth is available July through December. (Activation/enrollment is required. Plus, the credits are if-used and do not roll over. Terms apply.)
On top of that, there are two great Dell Amex Offers out there that should stack (or combine) with this benefit.
Dell Amex Offers
There are two Amex offers floating around there.
- Spend $100 or more on eligible Dell purchase and receive get a $50 statement credit. This is part of Amex’s Member Week. (Enrollment is required and terms apply. It expires 10 days after you it to your account.)
- Get 10% back on purchases, up to a total of $1,100. (Enrollment is required and terms apply. It expires on March 26, 2023.
- You can use it again next year, assuming you don’t spend $11,000 on Dell purchases with your Business Platinum card.
- So, even if you’re like me and already used your Dell benefit this half of the year (here’s what I bought and here’s what René purchased), you can use this Amex Offer next year before it expires.
So, if you spend just over $200 on a Dell purchase, you should come out ahead and enjoy some statement credit. How?
- Let’s say your Dell order comes to $220.
- $200 is credited to you because of the Amex Business Platinum’s Dell benefit.
- Another $50 is credited to your account because of the Membership Week Dell Amex Offer.
- Another $22 is credited to your account from the other Amex Offer.
- So, that’s around $50 in extra statement credit — plus whatever item you purchased from Delta.
- And you still earn the purchase amount’s worth of American Express® Membership Rewards®!
Or you can make a larger purchase and save a respectable chunk of change.
Don’t Forget Cashback Portals!
But, wait! There’s more! Remember to start your purchase at a cashback portal such as TopCashback or Rakuten. Visit both sites and compare their Dell cashback rates. Pick whichever is better.
I just checked our Rakuten link and it offers $30 in bonus cashback to new members who spend $30 through Rakuten within 90 days of signing up. So, that might add even more money to your piggy bank!
Happy saving and shopping!

So just to clarify-$200 for second half. First half $200 dell if not used yet is just gone-that’s not part of the stacking promo right?
Right. To paraphrase Lloyd Christmas (Jim Carrey) from Dumb & Dumber: “Use it or lose it, sister!”
Do you know if these two offers would stack with Dell Employee Discount?
I don’t.
But if you’re offering to be a guinea pig…
I believe amex can claw back credit if you’re coming out ahead here..
They can. But I’ve stacked several Dell deals before, come out ahead, and never had them clawed back.
Thanks to your blog, not only did I snag the combined Dell offers via AmEx but used my 1.5X MR points on Business Platinum AND found a HUGE markdown on a new desktop monitor – early Christmas pricing of 60% off before all the yummy goodness (plus 10% off the net price via Rakuten)! SCORE!
Sweet! Did all the credits post yet?
