As part of the regular targeted American Express offers, Cardmembers can benefit from either a bonus point reward at certain chains, or they can save money with purchases at other establishments.
Extra Membership Reward Points
The current offer gives an additional 500 points for food and beverage purchases of $10 or more. This offer is valid at Burger King, Papa John’s, Panera Bread, and Dunkin Donuts. Cardmembers have until the end of December 2016 to use the offer. The extra points can be earned several times at each chain, up to a maximum of 1,500 points or 3 visits. Cardmembers who opt to max out their points earning will get 6,000 points for a minimum outlay of $120. Making the offer even more convenient for users, it’s not only valid in store, but is also applicable on online purchases.
Discounts on Purchases
For cardmembers who are also interested in discounts and not just in earning points, there are some great offers out there. At several chains, cardmembers can get $10 back for every $50 spent on food and beverage at participating restaurants. The participating chains include but are not limited to, The Olive Garden, Bahama Breeze, Red Lobster, LongHorn Steakhouse, The Capital Grille, and others. Unlike the Burger King and Dunkin Donuts offer, this one is more generous time-wise and will run until the 17th of January, 2017.
To find an exhaustive list of all the participating restaurants, or even which ones are located nearby, all you need to do is log on to the American Express website and go to the offers and benefits area. Like most Amex offers, these offers are targeted, and users will need to check whether they apply to their particular card.

Soo good!
and I was already tempted by the 10x dining rewards.
Thanks! We tend to eat out a lot this time of year. Might as well rack up some extra points!
Food and points is such a great combination 🙂
Is this card only available for US citizens? Would be good if available to others
Richard, the American Express cards listed are available for people with a U.S. SSN/Tax ID.
So 600 points for a $10 purchase, if you value the Amex points at just 1.75 cents each, is more than $10 in points for a $10 food purchase… not bad!
And hopefully you value the meal at something too!
Amex is also set to begin the Smalls Shops promo, so might be able to double up.
Any idea if there are programs that are available to non Americans
Unfortunately, I’m unaware of any programs like this targeted to those outside of the U.S.
I used this to get a bunch of gift cards from panara and papa johns for christmas presents
Nicely done! I’ve heard the same from a few others as well.
Sounds great! I’ll have to see how I’m targeted across my stable of cards…
The discount sounds good. But that hamburger looks even better!
The gift card route sounds great!
Just in time for the holidays.
