Maximizing Your Dell Credit

Before you start shopping, make sure to register for the Dell statement credit. Additionally, check your Amex Offers on the American Express website to see if you're targeted for an Amex Offer on Dell purchases. You may need to make your purchases through dell.com/amex to qualify for the credit.

To maximize your purchase, consider using a cash-back portal like Rakuten, which can earn you American Express Membership Rewards points. You can also check if any airline portals offer bonus miles for Dell purchases.

Remember, the $200 Dell credit will reset for 2024, so be sure to use it before the end of the year.
