The points earning details with Amex<\/strong> are sometimes difficult to spot and unravel.<\/p>\n

In fact, American Express not only offers generous welcome bonuses<\/a>, but also excellent multipliers on regular purchases depending on the category; 1X, 2X, 5X and even up to 10 X during promotions.<\/p>\n

The easiest and fastest way is to look within the Amex application.<\/p>\n

First, you need to select the card and then choose the “Benefits” tab at the bottom of the screen. Next, you need to click on “view activity”; by scrolling down the list, you can find the points earning details with Amex<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In this example, we can see that purchases made on the American Express Cobalt®<\/sup> Card<\/a> on August 18 generated 5X points<\/a> since these are businesses that are classified as grocery stores<\/a> and restaurants.<\/p>\n

Similarly, when you are under a promotional offer<\/a> where there is a temporary increase in points in certain categories, the points earning details will be in the same place for all their credit cards (Membership Rewards<\/a>, Marriott Bonvoy<\/a>, Aeroplan<\/a> and AIR MILES<\/a>).<\/p>\n
