A one-year subscription costs $99. The offer is to spend $99+ and get $99 back, so it's a free one-year subscription.

Get a one-time $99 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Card to make a single subscription-based purchase of $99+ online at The Motley Fool or at fool.com/amex [fool.com] by 5/8/2021. See terms.

Quote :
Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. American Express Prepaid Cards, Corporate Cards and American Express Cards issued outside the United States are not eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only on US website or at Fool.com/amex. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 5/8/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. The Motley Fool Terms and Conditions currently provide that unless you notify The Motley Fool that you want to cancel, or that you do not want to auto renew, your subscription or membership fee will automatically renew for another subscription period (subject to applicable law) of equal length (for example, monthly, or annually). This means that The Motley Fool will collect the then-applicable membership or subscription fee and any taxes by charging a credit card The Motley Fool has on record for you without notifying you, unless notification is required by applicable law. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

Send an email to [email protected] after you have signed up requesting opt-out for the auto renewal. After I did that, they sent me an email that said: "we have disabled the auto-renewal feature"

If you search online - you will find 2-year packages to StockAdvisor or Rule-breakers for only $98 (one-year for $59)

Rule Breakers (1-Year) for $99:

All Motley Fool premium subscriptions are set to automatically renew for your convenience, and to ensure uninterrupted access to your premium service's investing guidance. If you would like to turn off the automatic renewal feature, we can assist.

To help with your request, please email us at [email protected], or by filling out the online Contact Customer Service form.

PRIVACY SETTINGS for premium subscriber

For Existing Subscribers
For people with existing Stock advisor subscription, if you buy and sign up with same email information as your existing Motley fool account, the new purchase will extend your expiration date by 1 year.

============================================
[b]For those curious how Motley Fool's stock picks are performing I setup a pie (portfolio) on M1Finance with 41 of the most recent suggested stocks from Tom and David. As long as I see reps coming from this thread so I know people are still using it I will update this link every Thursday to show the new recommendations.
https://m1.finance/2M-jgR32cPTC [Final update was on 04/08 due to apparent lack of interest].
M1finance gives you free trades and fractional shares which means you can transfer xxx dollars a week or 2 weeks and it will adjust it based on your percentages.
Advantage of fractional shares is explained well here: https://www.fool.com/investing/ho...al-shares/

For the people complaining about to much spam before you go crazy and cancel your account, go into your account settings and uncheck what you don't want. I have everything unchecked but the buy/sell alerts in stock advisor. https://www.fool.com/account/comm...-settings/

I just signed up. The first thing they do is try to sell you upgraded services for anywhere from $200-$14,000. The "premium" service we get is nearly useless. The last stock picks article is from December 28.
Swagbucks has 7500SB for the $99 yearly subscription as well, should be stackable for a nice MM.
Market correction coming soon for GameStop.

I did the same mistake. I didn't even realized and ended up subscribing to `Rule breakers`. Not sure if i will get the amex. Swagbuck is showing up pending though.
I did same thing. I think we will be OK, as the transaction from me was "MOTLEY FOOL LLC/ FOOL.COM". If it doesn't trigger I will complain to Amex.

stock advisor, didn't see Rule Breakers at all.
I accidentally got "Rule Breakers" but it worked out OK because I did this on my wife's card as well and she's signed up for "Stock Advisor". Both charges are identical to Amex so when it posts in a couple of days, I assume I'll get the credit for both...and cancel if not.

Thank you for this link. I had gone to SB and searched and it had some other link that doesn't work. This did. I did the offer, then called Fool and cancelled the Rule Breakers. Waiting on the pending points.

I created a Swagbucks account, downloaded the app, and purchased the subscription. Now, the SB account is deactivated and I am getting a message about a review that might take 30 days. I contacted customer service and said they had a few days to sort things out before I cancelled the purchase. I am guessing the amount of activity on this deal set off some kind of security issue or they are trying to weasel out of the purchase bonus.

I had this on my Amex Platinum, added. Went to my SB account and followed the link. Ordered, was $108 w/tax and took about 45min to get the notice from SB. Nothing yet from Amex.

Should make 68 MM all in all.

I think Swagbucks just pulled the plug. I was going to place my order through Amex but Swagbucks wasn't working properly. When I reopened my browser, the swagbucks option was gone.

Even getting the $99 back from Amex, it won't be useful for me... Unless there's another cashback option?

If I use a family member's UR portal/account on chase with my AMEX card, would they qualify for the 7.5k?

Pass. Not even worth the sales tax.

Then you are doing something wrong. After the stock drop 03/2020 due to coronavirus a monkey throwing darts at a list of stocks could have made money but as the market recovers those picks will be much more important. Heck I've been using their free articles for 1.5 years to influence my picks and I'm easily over >100% roi. Square from the time they recommended it around april 2020 is up over 300%. Tradedesk for same time frame is up 250+%. Abbvie is up around 80%. Those 3 were from one of the free "If you have $1000 buy these 3 stocks" articles from back in 04/2020. If you put $1000 SQ/TTD you got $3000 in square and $2500 in Tradedesk. It's comparable if not better than any of the seeking alpha services and you can't beat the price now($4 after sales tax for me)...heck even at $99 for a year it was cheaper than many of the services on seeking alpha for a year. (High Yield Investor and High Yield Landlord are both $399 a year no matter how many "sales" they have).

Thank you OP. I went through the Freedom UR site. It was 7500 points. Through Sapphire UR, it was only 5000 points. I was still able to use my Amex Plat as the credit card. It all worked smoothly.

Edited to add: I got the confirmation from Chase UR within minutes.
