New American Express ‘Shop Small’ cashback offer launched

American Express has launched a new ‘Shop Small’ offer.

Don’t get too excited – you can only use this once.

You will get a £5 statement credit when you spend £10+ at a participating Shop Small business between 22nd July and 2nd September.

You may find this offer on one, none or all of your American Express cards in the ‘Offers’ section of your statement page.  Remember that you need to save the offer to your card to register.

There is also a new Selfridges offer available.  If you are targeted, you will receive £30 statement credit on a transaction of £100+ at Selfridges before 17th August.
