YEAH!! Amex 'Shop Small' is back: get £5 off £10+ spend

Just a quick reminder that Amex has brought back one of my all-time favourite promos. Until 20th December 2020, you can earn a £5 statement credit for spending £10 or more at participating small shops.

Importantly, you must register for this offer in advance. Simply log onto your Amex account, and register for this promo in the 'My Offers' section on the statement page. 

Amex has tweaked the rules a little this year. The offer is valid once per participating retailer per card. Statement credits are capped at £50 per card.

You can find participating shops on this map here. For further info, visit the Amex Shop Small website.

"These Shop Small Offer Terms set out the key terms of our Shop Small Offer.

If any term set out below is inconsistent with the general Offer Terms, the term below will apply.
This Offer is available from 05/12/2020 until 23:59 UK time on 20/12/20 (the “Offer End Date”).
This Offer is only intended for UK Cardmembers who are the targeted recipients of this Offer.
To participate in this Offer, you must save this Offer to your qualifying American Express Card (“Card”) and make a qualifying purchase from a participating UK small business before the Offer End Date.

Small businesses listed on the Shop Small Map may change and your ability to redeem Amex Offers may be affected during this challenging time because of changes in some small businesses’ operations, such as reduced hours or suspension of in-person shopping, dining or services. Business location and other information provided on the Shop Small Map may contain errors. The operating hours and services provided on the Shop Small Map may vary. Please contact businesses directly to check they are open. We reserve the right to change or cancel this Offer at any time.
Please dine/shop responsibly by adhering to the current government guidelines.
To qualify, a single purchase must be for at least £10. Buy now pay later purchases are excluded from this Offer. Please see the general Offer Terms for more information about excluded transactions.
If you make a qualifying purchase, a £5 statement credit will be applied to your Card. You can receive up to 10 statement credits per Card, but only one statement credit per participating small business location. Multiple purchases made in a single purchase transaction will only qualify as one purchase for the purposes of this Offer. When we calculate how many qualifying purchases have occurred, we will not include purchases made by any additional Cardholder(s). Purchases made by an additional Cardholder will qualify for this Offer separately where the additional Cardholder saves this offer to their Card and makes a qualifying purchase from a participating small business before the Offer End Date.
Qualifying purchases must be billed to your Card Account by the participating small business before the Offer End Date. If the small business does not charge your Card before the Offer End Date, your purchase will not qualify for this Offer.
In the case of lodging, travel or car rental you must make your booking, and your Card Account must be billed, before the Offer End Date.
The statement credit should appear on your Card Account statement within 5 days from the date you made a qualifying purchase but may take up to 90 days from the Offer End Date. Please refer to the general Offer Terms for information about when statement credits can be lost.
A statement credit may be reversed if a qualifying purchase is refunded or cancelled. Any misuse, as reasonably determined by us, relating to your redemption of American Express Offers or any previous American Express Offers and promotions may result in a statement credit being reversed, and ineligibility from future American Express Offers and other promotions. This reversal may take place up to a maximum of 180 days after the Offer End Date.
By saving the Offer to your Card, you agree to all our Offer terms"
