Maximum discount $40."
Is that a good deal? Depends in part on how much value you normally get from Amex points
Math:
To max the 40% with max of $40 you'd want to spend exactly $100
1428 points used at amazon knocks $9.97 off your bill.
So to get $100 in "stuff" you spend 1428 points and $50.03-- so your total "value" out of 1428 points is $49.97... or about 3.5 cents per point.
Which is pretty good if you normally use your Amex points for cash, hotels, or coach airfare.
It's at the very bottom-low end of ok if you normally use your Amex points for business or first class airfare via partner airlines.... I typically beat 3.5c a point for that purpose though (4-6 cents a point is more common) so probably not a deal worth doing in my case but might be for others.
Certainly much worse than the only-spend-1-point discounts.
FWIW you seem to have left out that you get $9.97 off the order for those 1428 points (Amazon redeems them at 0.7 cents a point)... so your net is $21.97 compared to using the points at your 2 cent value otherwise not $12.

So it seems the 1,428 is not necessary
Makes the cpp conversation above pointless haha
I just did this and got a gift card for $60 while using 1 point.
Slight adjustment to my instructions:
1. Choose payment and type in $10 in points
2. Click continue
3. Go back and adjust points to $0.01 AND make sure the toggle at the bottom of the page is toggled to "Use $40 promotional balance"
4. Click continue
I did this on the mobile app on a 2nd account and can confirm it still works.
