Amex Offers Spend $50 or more, get $25 back. Up to 3 times (total of $75). Google Fi - Mobile Phone Plan
YMMV- May be for select account.
OFFER TERMS
Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are 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 for Google Fi purchases only. Valid online only at fi.google.com and app via Android devices only. Valid only on purchases made in US Dollars. Excludes all other Google products and services. Please note if you purchase a subscription, unless you notify the merchant that you want to pause, cancel, or that you do not want to auto renew, your subscription will automatically renew for another subscription period (subject to applicable law) of equal length (for example monthly, or annually). This means that the merchant will collect the then-applicable subscription fee and any taxes by charging a credit card the merchant has on record for you without notifying you, unless notification is required by applicable law. American Express identifies qualifying transactions based on information provided by the participating merchant. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 3 statement credits (total of $75 back) per Card Member. You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet. Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 9/2/2022, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been shipped/provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account. The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive statement credits. 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. Amex Offers are dynamic and personalized, so the offers you see may change. For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer. POID: K3HS:0001

Add 100+. Literally added 111 offers for Google Fi and Dell to FINALLY show up. I was never even aware of this "hack", I always just assumed if you look and it's not on there you weren't targeted, but sure enough, adding a ton of offers leaves room for new offers to appear. I just about gave up after adding 80, but tried over 100 and finally it appeared!!
To make an early payment:

Go to pay.google.com.
Click Subscriptions & services.
On your active Google Fi service, click Manage and then Pay early.

I just did it and have not received an Amex notification... though with these types of deals I typically do not. Can't say 100% sure if it works, I'll update if I see a credit.

I can't tell if the deal counts the service charge or just specifically ordering multiple phones... which I did a week ago before this offer Frown


Update:
Fi Prepay works perfectly, I was credited today. Incredible deal.
I had to add about 20 offers to finally see it. I'm not understanding why Amex can't fix this in 2022.

So the AmEx offer would not work with Google Fi trade-in.

When trade-in, we have 2 options:
1) Credit card refund - If you buy a new phone and pay in full today
2) Fi credit - If you finance a phone or order a Google Fi SIM

When selecting option 1, we make a sum payment, so just get one $25 from AmEx, and trade-in value back to credit card.

When selecting 2 to split phone payment, we may get three $25 but what we get from trade-in is Fi credit which may be over the 4-month service charge. What could we do with the credit in Fi?


Quote from ThriftySoda398 :
I gave a thought of prepaying my goggle fi with 3-$50 payments, and get the 3-$25 credits. And using credits to pay towards phone. Goggle Fi told me by email that " please note that if you've any available credits on your Fi account (Fi credits), then you won't be able to use them to purchase a new device as Fi credits are only applicable or used against the generated Fi bills."

That option does not look available.

You can get new customer discount if you haven't used Fi in 180 days. But, I would expect referral to work only once per account.
I decided to go for it and tried a referral code just for the heck of it, and it was accepted. Apparently, a returning customer can use a referral code Smilie

Make sure it sticks when the first bill comes so it shows the credit properly and gets added to the second bill. I should give it a shot then.

Does anyone know if you have to use the phone you bought for these promos? Can I order one but use my current phone? Or, activate the new phone but switch to my current phone? In my experience, most promos don't care what phone is actually being used, but I wasn't sure if Fi was strict about that.

Keep us posted. Did you buy the 256GB S22? If so, how long are they taking to ship it?

Has anyone here tried to finance the phone and then pre-pay $50 at a time times 3 and have it apply towards the phone balance? I have this offer on mine and my wife's account. May pick up a 256GB S22 if there is a way to use both $75 offers during the 4 month period (assuming $20 referral).

The s22 arrives today has anyone else used it on another service? I have a few weeks of mint left and wondered if it is unlocked and I can use it for a few weeks to use up that service time. Will obviously activate on fi long before the 30 deadline to not mess up the $500 credit.

As long as you don't use the fi sim on any other phone, you should be fine.

Thanks for the reply. Phone just got here, I did not know the sim came already installed. I am sure it would be fine, but not worth risking $500. I will just keep using the 3a for another couple of weeks.

You're welcome. I wouldn't take a chance either considering the large amount at stake. It's funny, I am in the same boat as you. Mint ending in a month, and I have been thinking about picking up an S22 if there is a way to maximize the Amex Fi offer I got on two cards (wife and mine).

Did you buy the phone with your Amex? If so, did it trigger the offer? Someone on another thread reported that the entire $75 amount triggered with a $300 phone purchase.

Another option would be to finance the device and then prepay $50 at a time towards it, but I have yet to see any data points on that.
