Below are new American Express Gift Card promotional codes to waive Fees.
When purchasing American Express Prepaid Gift Cards you will encounter up to 2 types of fees, Purchase Fees and Shipping Fees. Shipping Fees are only involved when purchasing these gift cards online. The Purchase Fees are relevant to American Express Gift Cards purchased both online and in-store (the fees ARE different depending where you buy).
Promotional coupon codes will typically give you either No Purchase Fees or No Shipping Fees. Rarely are there promo codes to waive all fees, and usually only one code can be applied if both types exist.

Any codes for free shipping?
Phone501 just save me $63.20 AND shipping on $425. Dec 4 2018. Thank you. I am shocked. I cannot believe that this worked. Will be signing up for everything you write.
That’s awesome! Cheers Sarah.
Your examples are misleading. The 3.95 purchase fee is for the $25 gift cards. If you are purchasing a $100 gift card the purchase fee is higher. Normally by this time of the year Amex offers to waive 100% of all the purchase fees if you purchase at least $200 in gift cards and I have been taking advantage of that offer every year. This year I am not seeing anything but $3.95 off each gift card purchase which is forcing me to consider purchasing restaurant or movie gift cards which have no fees.
Their last offer expired 10/31/19
any codes that cover the 5.95 fee amount?
phone501 did work for me on 10-25-18
Me too! Thank you for the tip!!!

code “phone501” just worked for me today. It saved me a few dollars, which is always helpful. Thanks to the OP for this. As noted below it shaved 3.95 off the normal 4.95 purchase fee.
New code from a rep today good through 12/31/2018: FLOSFF18. Saved $3.95 per card
I used phone501 and saved $1,185.00 THANK YOU!!!
09/20/2018
I used phone501 code and it worked. Saved $158. Thank you to whoever gave the code.
Worked for me today. Saved $118. Thanks!
Called and got “phone501” to save $3.95 off the purchase fees per card. Saves most of the purchase fee cost, though each card’s purchase fee is $4.95, so $1.00 per card. Better than nothing if you need to order AMEX gift cards.
Forgot to mention it said the expiration was Sept. 30 for this code.
Lee,
Thanks for the info. I’ll reference it in on the page. Every bit helps.
I am trying to order (40) $500 increment business gift card and the above purchase fee promotions are not being accepted on line.
I will also be placing a very large order in a day or two as well
Would it be possible to receive a promotion code which I can use against my upcoming orders… and my order for today as well..
thanks
Julie,
Promo codes haven’t been as readily available for some time now. It’s best to try and give customer service a call and see if a rep has any new codes to provide.
