American Express Member Week 2025 is on and there are some good deals

Editor’s note: This is a recurring post, regularly updated with new information and offers.

American Express cardholders now have access to a slew of special offers during American Express Member Week — a five-day even that runs until March 21.

The last time American Express offered a Member Week event was October 2023. We saw a cornucopia of cool experiences and statement credits with travel brands, including Delta Air Lines and Hilton, with savings of almost $400 in some instances.

While the travel deals aren’t quite as compelling this time around, there are some great deals nonetheless.

There are some limited-time shopping deals and benefits for Amex small-business cardmembers as well.

What is American Express Member Week?

Member Week is a showcase for American Express to demonstrate the perks and benefits that members enjoy on its cards. The event debuted in 2021 and continues to evolve in terms of the offers and unique experiences provided to members.

Access to Member Week is reserved for those who hold personal, business and corporate American Express cards.

According to the American Express website, this year, in honor of 175 years of American Express, offers will be available from “iconic brands with more than a century of service.”

Some very compelling Amex Offers

For Member Week 2025, eligible cardmembers can enroll in offers to access more than $290 in statement credits when they make qualifying purchases at select brands like Kiehl’s, Levi’s, Barnes & Noble (online), Brooks Brothers and Shiseido.

There are several good deals on travel, including on Hilton stays and Hertz car rentals.

Here are just a few examples of the plethora of offers now available for Member Week.

You can earn $75 off, for example, for Hilton stays through May 19, 2025, on purchases over $250.

Or how about an offer for $70 back when you spend $350 at Hertz? You can fill up with gas from Exxon Mobil for a $5 statement credit on $25 spent on fuel.

Business cardmembers can enroll to access more than $500 in statement credits on qualifying purchases at select brands like HP and Lowe’s. We’ve also spotted Brooks Brothers and Macy’s among the more than a dozen options on the Member Week site.

Business cardholders can enroll in their American Express accounts and get a $50 statement credit when they spend $200 or more at Lowe’s stores. Note that you’ll need to enroll by March 21, 2025.

Here’s the fine print from Amex: “Earn a one-time $50 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Business Card to spend a minimum of $200 in one or more qualifying purchases in-store at participating Lowe’s or online at lowes.com by 3/31/2025. Excludes outlets. Offer and availability may vary by cardholder. Just login to your American Express account(s) to see if you are eligible to add this offer to your card(s).”

It is not available for e-gift cards.

Other perks from Amex

There are other fun offers right now, too. For Member Week only, eligible cardholders can transfer Membership Rewards points to Marriott Bonvoy with a 25% bonus.

Additionally, Amex is toasting to its cardholders during Member Week with a martini promotion from Resy and Amex. From March 17 to 21, cardmembers can get a complimentary off-menu martini at participating restaurants when they add their Amex card to their Resy profile or present their card when checking in. There are some caveats with this one: You have to order food, there’s a limit of one drink per cardmember and only dinner meals are eligible. Plus, it’s only currently valid at the following restaurants (but perhaps this list will be extended):

• New York City: Bangkok Supper Club and Portrait Club
• Washington, D.C.: Cana
• Miami Beach, Florida: Macchialina
• Atlanta: Kimball House
• Chicago: Meadowlark

The same participating restaurants will also host a one-night, martini-themed Member Week event with special menus, live music and branded swag.

Traditionally, cardholders can also snag tickets for some prime entertainment and sporting events in 2025 through Amex presales during Member Week. In the past, we’ve seen offers that included tickets to events ranging from Coachella to the U.S. Open golf championship.

This year, it’s an evening with Gracie Abrams, “a one-night, one-city, Card Members-only live performance.”

You’ll need to follow @americanexpress on Instagram this week for highlights.
