Nothing from AMEX shows up for me. Since it seems to work for many, I'm wondering why I haven't had luck.

I have credit score above 700, about 10 years of credit history, over 10 credit cards, though only one with AMEX (canceled over a year ago). The only strike I can think of is a short relationship with AMEX. Is that why I don't get any AMEX offer in CardMatch? Has anyone new to AMEX gotten these offers thru CardMatch?
Do you have frozen credit report? Lifelock or any fraud alerts on your CR?
Creditcards.com has to be able to pull a soft on your CR to target promos.

If you have no active AmEX cards, I believe you can check to see if you're targeted for anything:
