Does anyone know if the Blue Cash Everyday Card counts as an Amex Rewards Cardholder card? Looking to take advantage of these deals in the future but don't want to pay an annual fee on an Amex Credit Card.
Yes -- they have separate offers for reward points (Green/Gold/Plat) vs reward dollars (Blue Cash Everyday/Preferred)

Does the discount back to your account if you return your purchase?

Can someone please remind me how to use an MR point to take advantage of this while paying for the balance with funds remaining on my Amazon account?

Make Amex default card -- it'll automatically select Amex w/ GC balance applied during checkout

Redeem just 1 MR pt for discount on final checkout page -- works better using laptop/desktop (or set your mobile browser to desktop mode) vs using the app

Thank you. I just tried this -- setting the AmEx as my default payment, applying the $.01 MR, and then it tries to put the balance on the AmEx. When I check the box to apply my Amazon GC balance, it removes the MR point.

NM...just figured it out. I set the pay with points as the default (rather than the AmEx card itself), then on the final page changed the full MR point balance to 1.
Thanks a bunch! Repped! I thought this option had disappeared.

Do it using laptop/desktop -- there's an option to apply pts on final checkout page without messing with default payment

I was doing it on my laptop in Chrome, but wasn't seeing that option until I set Pay With Points as the default. Thanks again.

Sadly, it appears Hilton Honors Surpass AMEX doesn't seem to work with this ever. Guess it's because the rewards are moreso Hilton than AMEX.
