How does the new Amex Platinum Card offer work?
When you spend £50 in store or online at Harvey Nichols every six months, you will get £50 back in the form of statement credit. That means you can earn back a total of £100 each year if you spend at least £50 in the first half of the year (January to June) and another £50 in the second half (July to December).
There is no minimum single spending requirement to earn the statement credits, so you don’t have to spend £50 or more at once to qualify for the offer. As long as your total purchases in the six-month period are at least £50, you will get £50 back.
The offer applies to both in-store and online purchases at Harvey Nichols, which has stores in major cities in the UK, including London, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Bristol.
The offer also applies to several Harvey Nichols-affiliated restaurants, including:
- Harvey Nichols Leeds Hospitality – Leeds
- Harvey Nichols Knightsbridge Hospitality – London
- Madhu’s 2 go – London
- Harvey Nichols Manchester Hospitality – Manchester
- Harvey Nichols Bristol Hospitality – Bristol
- Zelman Meats Knightsbridge – London
- Harvey Nichols OXO Tower – London
- Burger and Lobster Harvey Nichols – London
- Harvey Nichols Edinburgh Hospitality – Edinburgh
- Harvey Nichols Birmingham Hospitality – Birmingham
How long will the offer run?
The offer will run from 10 January 2022 to December 2024. That means eligible cardholders can get up to £300 back in total by taking advantage of the offer.
