This appeared in the offers for you section online. The statement credit is for each $25 purchase, NOT a one time statement credit. Essentially gives you up to 23% off gas at BP for the remainder of the calendar year.

Thanks. FWIW, this showed up for me only for my Simply Business card.

This deal is not just for the Amex BCP - you can add it to all Amex cards, including Amex-branded cards such as Fidelity Amex. You can also add to AU cards as long as they have different card numbers from the primary account.

There is also a less lucrative Exxon/Mobil one time deal, $5 statement credit for $30 spend.

To do so, you must have individual card listed under separate log in.

The offer would show up under Each card but if the cards are all under same log in, once you add the offer to one card, the offer disappears from the rest of the cards under same log in. People have discovered this from the $25 credit on $75 purchase from Staple.

If your cards are all under separate log in (few people would) or if you dont mind to go thru the trouble to delete cards from existing set up and re-register them one by one, then you would have offer attached to each card that is under its own log in.

What is the point of adding the BP offer to other cards if the offer is unlimited?

It hasn't yet been verified that the deal is unlimited, although the terms indicate that it is. I'm thinking that the "each time" verbiage in the offer is an error that Amex will try not to honor. I saved PDF copies and screenshots of the deal to dispute it with Amex customer service later if they try to give me only 1 $5 credit.

Either way, it doesn't hurt to add the offer to multiple cards.

How do I get these offers added to my SPG?
No offers have shown up for me ever (new card holder).

I tried this and the BP station by our house doesn't show up as "BP". Rather it posts as something like "GAS MART #12". I will be calling to see about this. If this can work for us, this could be a big money maker for the rest of the year.

Go to https://sync.americanexpress.com/ and sync your card with Twitter. Tweet #AmexBP and Amex should confirm that the offer is added to your account. You can also do it through Facebook but I've only used the Twitter method.

I trust the terms would govern the reward. It said EACH transaction. Making screenshot is a good measure for precaution that is for sure.

It takes a few months for the new SPG would see offers online.

Even if it is a possibility, the code of transaction may be different from gas purchase than other stuff. People have found this out with the 7-11 which seems to code it as a Level III - meaning the card issuer can see exactly what you are buying.

The terms say it is only good for purchases made at the pump.
