So you literally logged in and out of 40 different Amazon accounts just to check if you had the deal? Got a lot of time on your hands?

I think these offers are screened carefully now unlike in the past where 2-2 cards used to get offers. it used to show up on multiple gold cards earlier not anymore. glad I cancelled all and keeping only platinum.

apparently phone number has to be unique, wasn't able to create a new account because it asked for phone number

Thanks, I was able to get the 20% off. I had previously used this offer so I was not sure it would work, but it did.

Got 50% off $80 max so I bought a $160 Netflix gift card. But Amazon's conversion ratio is 0.7 cents per point, which calculates to 1.05 cents per point with the 50% discount which is a bit under the "good" point valuation which is in the 1.1 to 1.5 range. So, a decent deal here but I wouldn't do less than 50% off.

You only need to use 1 mr point to get the discount. Never pay full with mr point.

Tip on how to filter items sold and shipped by Amazon:

Needs to be shipped and sold by Amazon directly -- apply at least 1 reward point during checkout for discount

You can add this to the browser URL to only show Amazon items:
Code:
&emi=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Example:
amazon.com/s?k=toaster

Change to:
amazon.com/s?k=toaster&emi=ATVPDKIKX0DER

what's really weird is being asked to choose which one you "prefer" if you would rather have "points" or "cash" and you choose cash and then later you complain about the fact that you cannot use points. ...c'mon! you have a cash card; stay out of the points program. /s /s /s

Looking for some help. When I go through the process to enroll, Amazon returns a message that Amex says I don't have a rewards account. I go to the Amex app and can clearly see a rewards balance.

What gives? I triple checked the name, card info, address. All match my Amex account.
did you figure out ?i am also getting same error

If you're talking about Blue Cash (or BC Preferred) or similar, it won't work. Those cards reward you with automatic cash back, rather than with Membership Rewards points earned/redeemed based system.
