American Express has launched a new round of statement credit deals, with a particularly strong travel focus.

There are two ways to sign up to these deals. The easiest is to visit the Amex website or app and go the statement page for each card you hold. At the bottom is a list of current offers targetted to you. Click ‘Save To Card’ and you’re good to go.

A selection of deals are also available via the Amex Connect website here. If you hold an American Express issued by Lloyds, MBNA, TSB or Barclays then you can register for these deals via Amex Connect.

These are the travel related offers available:

Eurostar – £20 cashback when you spend £60

Expires 24th July. If you have two Amex cards you could book a trip as 2 x one-way tickets and get the cashback twice as long as each leg was £60 or more.

Hyatt Hotels – £50 cashback when you spend £250

Expires 30th September. Valid at most European Hyatt properties including the four in the UK. Remember that, if used in Europe, the cashback will be offset by Amex’s 3% FX fee. This offer is NOT on Amex Connect.

Red Carnation Hotels – £50 cashback when you spend £250

Expires 29th July. They run Ashford Castle in Ireland (photo above) amongst other properties although only the UK hotels are included in this offer. Earlier this week I wrote about their generous ‘2000 Virgin miles per night’ promotion which you could combine with this.

The Halkin / Metropolitan – £50 cashback when you spend £250

Expires 17th July. This offer is valid twice per card so you can earn up to £100 back at each hotel.

Landmark Hotel Group – £75 cashback when you spend £200

Expires 11th September. Valid at The Landmark London, Lancaster London or K West Hotel & Spa. This is obviously very generous and worth considering if planning a London hotel stay.

OneFineStay – £100 cashback when you spend £300

Expires 11th September for stays by 31st December. Generous deal from the ‘upmarket Airbnb’ company.

Of the non-travel deals, there is a ‘£30 back on £100 spend at Selfridges’ which I thought was pretty decent plus quite a few others.
