1. You can earn 2% cash back for eligible purchases at American Express retail merchants as follows: (i) at stand-alone automobile gasoline stations in Canada, and (ii) at stand-alone grocery stores in Canada, up to a maximum of $15,000 in purchases posted to your account on this category (equal to $300 cash back) annually. Once the maximum is reached, you will no longer earn 2% regardless of credits, returns and adjustments subsequently posted to your account. After that, you will then earn 1.25% on eligible purchases. Calculation resets to zero each year on the Cardmembership anniversary date. Purchases at merchants where gas and grocery are not their primary business (including superstores, wholesale clubs, alcohol retailers and general merchandise retailers) do not qualify for these categories.

Merchants are typically assigned codes and categorized based on what they sell. Earn rate of 1.25% cash back on eligible purchases applies when the merchant code is not in an eligible category, using a payment account or service of a third party, a card reader attached to a mobile phone or online retailer that sells goods of other merchants or the merchant category is otherwise not identified. Provided your account is in good standing, cash back can be earned on eligible purchases less returns and other credits. Interest rate charges, annual fees, other charges, and cash equivalent transactions are not purchases and do not qualify for cash back. If you choose to return a purchase or are otherwise entitled to a credit or adjustment that is related to a purchase, your entitlement to cash back rewards will be reduced accordingly. All deductions for returns, credits and adjustments will be calculated at the earn rate in effect at the time of the return, credit or adjustment. This means that the cash back rewards deducted from your balance may be different from the amount originally earned. Cash back is applied as a credit to your account annually and will appear on the statement issued in September of each year. The cash back calculation resets annually. All references to you means the Basic Cardmember.

2. You can earn 4% cash back for eligible purchases at American Express retail merchants as follows: (i) at stand-alone automobile gasoline stations in Canada, and (ii) at stand-alone grocery stores in Canada, up to a maximum of $30,000 in purchases posted to your account on this category (equal to $1,200 cash back) annually. Once the maximum is reached, you will no longer earn 4% regardless of credits, returns and adjustments subsequently posted to your account. After that, you will then earn 2% on eligible purchases. Calculation resets to zero each year on the Cardmembership anniversary date. Purchases at merchants where gas and grocery are not their primary business (including superstores, wholesale clubs, alcohol retailers and general merchandise retailers) do not qualify for these categories.

5. Referral Program Terms: Your account must be in good standing. If this is a personal or family referral, you agree to only make recommendations to known friends and family members with whom you have a relationship and who have confirmed to you that they want to receive this communication. If this is a referral in the context of your business, you agree to only make recommendations to business contacts whom you know and have consented to receive this recommendation from you. You must not send recommendations to people you do not know. Whenever you reach out to a potential referral, you will only use content we provide. Any additional statements you make cannot be inconsistent with our content and must be truthful, accurate and not misleading. You should not publish or distribute your referral link in locations where the audience is likely to include individuals with whom you do not have a business, personal or family relationship or who may not be interested in the offer. We encourage fair usage of this referral program and ​so we limit the number of people who can apply ​using your referral link, in any 30-day period. You can only receive a maximum referral bonus of $375 cash back per calendar year for approved referrals, which includes eligible referral bonus amounts from both (i) special or limited time referral offers and (ii) regular referral offers in that same calendar year. Referral bonus for each approved referral and maximum annual referral bonus limit may change at any time and if you change Card products. Should the referral bonus amount change during the calendar year, you may receive a partial bonus depending on the available maximum bonus amount. You are not eligible to receive this referral bonus offer if you have already reached your maximum annual referral bonus limit. The referral bonus will be awarded to you based on each eligible referral for which American Express receives an application that is subsequently approved, subject to all applicable terms and conditions. Your referral bonus will be awarded in the calendar year in which the eligible referral application is approved and not when the referral application is received. Due to the confidential nature of the approval process, you will not be notified when applications are approved or declined and any individual you have referred must agree to allow your account to be bonused upon approval or you will not receive the referral bonus. If our records indicate that any person you have referred has opted not to receive e-mails from us, your referral will not be sent and you will not receive the referral bonus offered as part of this program. Referral program varies by product and may be modified, suspended, cancelled or otherwise terminated without notice. Cannot be combined with any other offer. If the people that you refer have already applied for the product that you are referring without participating in this program, neither you nor they will be eligible for any referral bonus that may be offered as part of this program. Likewise, if the people you refer decide to apply for a Card through this referral program other than the one you have specifically recommended, the referral bonus for which you and they may be eligible will vary. You will only use the delivery methods we provide. By participating in the referral program, you are requesting that emails be sent on your behalf to individuals with whom you have a business, personal or family relationship. If you already have an American Express Card, you are prohibited from referring yourself for any American Express Card. Any violation or abuse of this referral program including, sending emails to individuals with whom you have no business, personal or family relationship, referring yourself, and efforts to bypass, manipulate, obscure or otherwise modify the delivery and accurate presentation of the referral link, sharing tools, content, disclosures, instructions or other materials we provide will be considered a breach of these Terms and make you ineligible for any referral bonus, reverse any referral bonus awarded, and result in your termination from the program and cancellation of your Card account. Your Card account's eligibility to participate in the referral program is based on your creditworthiness and other factors including your account history with American Express. Referral program participants should allow 8 to 10 weeks for the award of the referral bonus once program criteria have been met and must be enrolled in the corresponding loyalty program (if applicable) when the referral bonus is awarded. American Express reserves the right to limit, cancel, or revoke a referral or welcome bonus if it determines, in its sole discretion, you have violated these Terms. All products and services are subject to applicable Terms and Conditions.
