Update: Don’t forget that your item must ship before 12/31 in order to take advantage of the 2023 credit, so be sure to place your final orders now!

Here are some of my favorite items to use this credit for, prices before any discounts:

Gaming is always a fun way to spend the credit:

I never travel without a laptop power bank, it’s a travel game changer:

Bose Noise Cancelling headphones are a part of my everyday life, working from home and traveling: 

Logitech Master Mouse is the best thing ever:

Also, for travel, a portable monitor is very helpful:

If you don’t have a Nest Smoke Alarm yet, they are fantastic:

And if you don’t have a Ring Doorbell yet, they are excellent as well:

Every year, I restock my toner or simply buy a new free printer, depending on the situation. 

If you don’t have a nice desktop or Bluetooth speaker setup, you can get that for free as well.

What do you like to purchase from Dell?


-The AMEX Business Platinum card now offers $200 Dell credit to spend every January-June and $200 Dell credit to spend every July-December. You need to register here for the Dell benefit. 

Right now the excellent new Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds with immersive spatial audio are on sale at their lowest price ever for $229, making them an excellent redemption or this offer.

  • Check for Dell AMEX Offers like $40 off $200, $50 off $250, $120 off $599, $120 off $800, and more.
  • Check for Dell Chase Offers like 5% off, up to $100 back.

Some items, including laptops and monitors, have shipping delays, so you’ll want to order items that will ship by 12/31! If the item ships after your credit expires you will lose your credit.

Dell allows you to split a charge among 3 credit cards at checkout. If you have multiple Business Platinum cards that means you can get a $200 credit back on each one by splitting the charge among multiple cards.

trying to buy laptop but dell keeps canceling my orders.

Dylan

Same thing, it’s out of hand

united

I bought a computer a couple weeks ago. Dell says delivery date is dec 28. They had put a hold on my Amex, but released it. I guess they will charge when they ship. Wondering if they ship at end of year, and the charge posts after Jan 1, do I lose out on this year’s $200?

yikes2179

Yes

Gr8ful

Yes and no.
Same thing happened to me for the 2021 year. Ordered on the 15th, but, the order didn’t ship till Jan 30th. Called amex and they had to physically give me the credit.
So, yes you can get it, just have to “prove” that the delay was from Dell and not you.
Amex saw the transaction that showed the hold on the card for my purchase and based off of that, gave me the credit.

Ben

Xbox GCs no longer work (for me). Dell rep told me they are no longer selling them (cannot really trust a Dell rep).

foo

what doesn’t work? They cancel the order?

Ben

Yes they keep cancelling them.

foo

Use an employee card (new number), ‘new’ email, and a different billing address. The only thing that needs to be the same is the zip code. Make sure to clear all cookes. Also use a VPN to change your IP address.

Hamariv

If using the employee card will i still get the 10% ?

foo

Yes

Jew

No

MARTY

Can you please expand on this on how we can get 10% off?

Ben

How quickly can I get a employee card?

Pinny

Ordered an Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3. Pretty decent Bluetooth speaker.

chaim

why only listing the $20 xbox gift card not the 50 or 100?

DG

If my billing cycle ended for the ninth already can I still order as long as I am charged by 12/31?

Izzy

How do I use the 100 airline credit for united on the amex gold card? Can I purchase a 100$ credit ?

Mendy

Can I do a phone transaction?

reb yid

Thanks for the reminder to use the credit and for the idea of using it for XBOX gift cards. They’re good for gifts, and also, according the Dell website, “This digital gift code is good for purchases at Microsoft Store online, on Windows, and on Xbox. ” Oh and for that 10% off code, as well.

MARTY

Dan, I just signed up for the AMEX Business Platinum card. Does it make sense to also sign up for the personal one??

Dan

Sure!

sous

The Bose QC has a Jan 12 delivery date (NYC Metro) and according to Dell it wont ship earlier

Dan

I had the same thing. It shipped out the same day that I ordered it.

Sruly

I ordered the Bose qc45 estimated deliver date Jan 12. You think there is any chance it’ll post and ship before then?

Dan

Yes.

Sruly

I hope. They put the order on hold so I’m waiting for the shipment email

Dan

Good luck and keep us posted!

Sruly

My order just shipped!!! That means it’ll post before new years

Dan

Enjoy!

abraham

Do you think a jan 4th delivery will ship out and post by dec 31st?

Cavsral

I had a Jan 4 delivery which is now scheduled for Dec 30

Jake

my cc is in my office. is there way to make this happen tonight? too lazy to call amex tonight

chaim

when splitting charges into 3, can you decide how much to charge each individual card?

Chaim

Obviously

Shipped

Does expedited shipping speed up the fulfillment process, or will standard shipping be fulfilled in the same time frame?

Mogro

If i buy multiple items which add up to $200, will i get the credit?

Dan

Yes, no need to spend $200 to get credit.

Moshe A

Thanks,
Purchased a $1,600 computer and 2 $200 screens today.
Used code DELL200 for $200 off $1600+, my amex business marriott card and my wife’s business marriott card each had $200 back for $800 spend, and used my business platinum for $200.
$2,000 product for $1,200

chaim

@ Dan —-

you wrote above that “you’ll want to order items that will ship by 12/31! If item item ships after your credit expires you will lose your credit.”

I am under the impression that the charge has to post by 12/31, not just ship by 12/31 to get the 2021 $200 credit. Am i mistaken?

Thank you

Eli

How do I see the shipping date when ordering?

MOMO

best guess anything that will ship ontime if I order right now?

Joe

I got a few of the xbox digital gift cards. Is there a way to sell them?

sullivan

Charged 12/31 got credit 01/02 is it for 2021 or for 2022?

Dan

If the post date was 12/31, then it’s 2021 credit.

CollegeGirl

Any good printers?

A

Why last chance isn’t last day 6/30?

Dan

Some items can take a week or 2 to ship, has to ship by 6/30.

A

How can i tell which will take that long to ship?

Dan

The product page should have an estimate.

Andrew

I got an Arctic Nova Pro headset

R

Be aware that Dell do price match over live chat. So for this like Google Home or Ring you can match if it goes on sale elsewhere like Target.

C

Will i get the credit if i buy refurbished from https://outlet.us.dell.com/

mendel

Just bought a refurbished laptop for $199. with half decent specs. Basically free with my Amex Platinum. Latitude 7280. (dellrefurbished.com)

Kent

Did you actually get the $200 credit on this purchase from dellrefurbished.com? I assume you meant the Amex *Business* Platinum…

dave

The ship date or deliver date has to be before june 30th? also will the dell refurbished website work for this as well?

Ben

If I ordered an item from Dell today (6-29-22) and it ship tomorrow (6-30 with an expected delivery by 7-1), am I probably too late for the benefit for first half year?

joe

whens the latest date of the year to do it

Dan

Depends when the item ships. Has to ship by 12/31.

joe

omg i gotta figure out what to get how long does it usually take to ship? what would you say is the latest i should put my order through

Dan

Every item page says its estimated ship date.

danny

Dan, you write “Eligible Products”. I ordered a bunch of ink for my computer. How do i know if its eligible for this offer? My stuff shipped a yesterday, i see a pending charge on amex, but no credit.

Dan

Credit can take a week or 2. You should get it.

Jack

Is Dell giftcard valid purchase for $200 credit

Dan

No.

Sam

Where can I see how much credit I already received

Andre

I ordered a canon eco tank printer. Said it’s gonna ship by the 28th but it’s almost here already! Was $195 including ny tax.

CtownBin

Does it help to pay for expedited shipping to make sure it goes through before year-end? I know what matters is when it SHIPS, not the delivery date. Does expedited shipping make it ship sooner, or just arrive sooner?
Also, I can only see DELIVERY dates for each item, not ship dates. My item says delivery date of Jan. 3 with express shipping, which I assume would mean it would ship before the New Year (since Jan. 1 and Jan. 2 are not business days). The question is if I need to pay for expedited shipping or not- regular shipping says delivery by Jan. 9 but maybe it would still ship at the same time as the expedited, just take longer to actually arrive.

nirc

dell just stopped selling xbox live gc .

SSS

what do you mean by eligible? i have the card i want to use this now, i understand it has to be an item that is in stock and ready to ship because it is cutting it close to 2023. Are any items not “eligible”?

Dan

Dell gift cards.
Outlet items won’t work for the 10-20% off.

SSS

Outlet items are items with big discounts?

Dan

No. They’re items from the outlet store site.

Mk

Last chance meaning I need to spend $200 on my platinum business card tonight or I will lose it?

Yitz

What item can I buy that will net me at least 50% of the credit ?
The Xbox gift cards was a good deal but it’s out of stock ?

David

Their 27″ 4k monitors are pretty nice.

EG

Tip: Don’t charge to multiple Credit Cards and don’t order more than one item per order.

Dell is incompetent, will often get an authorization on CC but won’t put charge through, and will then send you an invoice and try to collect months later.

eli

Where can I see when the item will ship?

Cb

Currently stackable with 10% back offer.
bought power bank and laptop case

Yisroel

If I return an Item, will Amex remove the credit?

ShmuliT

If I have the “$40 off $200” offer, do I have to spend $240+ to benefit from both the credit and offer, or will $200 spend trigger both, making me $40?

zow

I have never (or at least not in recent memory) seen the $40 off $200″ offer on my Biz Plat. The former only shows up on my Consumer Plat.

ShmuliT

You are correct. The offer was on my other amex card.
But I did have the 10% offer.
Does that mean I need to spend $220?
Or if i spend $200 will I make $20 profit?

CollegeGirl

If I used PayPal did I just lose the credit?

YeshivaGuy

True story!

ko

how long does credit post on the card? bought couple weeks ago, still waiting credit.

Dan

Did you register for it?
Did they charge your card and ship it?

ko

yes.
They changed and i got bose earbuds.
it posted just few days last year.

Dan

Been a few days for me.
Contact AMEX.

Yuchie Dell

Dell is the worst… pushed off my shipping date twice already and now most likely I’m going to lose out on my $200 credit.

Mendy

Dell keeps postponing my ship date and therefore I am about to lose out on my credits.
Can I purchase digital products with instant download to use the credits immediately?

Such as:
https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/download-xbox-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-premium-deluxe-edition-xbox-one-digital-code/apd/ac332688/gaming-gaming-accessories

MARTY

You can try ordering Xbox Live $75 Digital Gift Cards, as those should process still today.

Valentin

I have been looking for them for almost two hours, I can’t find them. That has been always my back up until now. Any link(s)?

Brooke Fischman

Dell rep is saying they can no longer take 3 payment methods

Dan

Still doable online.

moshe

you can only split it to 2 cards not 3

Dan

Incorrect.

Moshe

Just tried online and it doesn’t permit more than two payment methods

Chchosid

Just applied for business platinum but cards delivery date is only 12/26 due to the holidays will it still be possible to take advantage of this offer or is there any way to get a instant csrd number until physical card arrives?

P Katz

On your approval email you should have a link for a temporary card num..
Remember to enroll on your Amex profile to the dell offer..

Chchosid

Only link in my approval email was to “set up account online” an I did not see an option to get a temporary card number. Is there a way to get one now? Or do I just wait till my card arrives and hope I can still process the order then and still get the credit to apply.

P Katz

Sign up here for a %10 coupon, it will arrive whiten 24h.

As Dan learned us, adding a period should work (Example if your email address is Test@gmail you can do Te.st@gmail)

C G

If I apply for the 0% dell business credit and I pay now $200 and the other half after Jan will I get both credits? It’s charged under dell financial services.

Abe

what is the best dell I7 laptop of 2023 or is it worth waiting for the XPS model of 2024

Sam

I tried twice to place orders. Got email confirmation and within one hour order was canceled, no reason given.

Anyone know why?

Zack

We’re you ordering for a buying group with the shipping address in Deleware?

Nath

Same
Keeps getting cancelled

Roya

JJ, is the power bank compatible w XPS13? Your old favorite one (silver) seemed more compatible in regards to small laptops w usb c

Sam

Bose earbud update.

I spoke with Dell this morning and asked why my Bose earbuds kept getting canceled, they told me that it was Bose that was doing the cancelation and not Dell. They explained that even though it shows on the Dell website Bose is back ordered and don’t have a production or ship date. She was very helpful and replaced the order with the smoke white ones (they were $20 more) so now I have a confirmation and they should be delivered before Jan 1.

I hope this helps anyone looking to order them.

dd

you can get dell to price match best buy on the xbox to 349.99

Cb

Dell is insane with the order cancelation you have to call 8663834713 and speak with these animals they could verify your account and make that future orders will go through

David

My Dell order was showing delivery date 12/30 – now i got an email that they delayed delivery to 1/17. Will Amex honor the Credit?

Dan

No, order something else quickly.

yitz

anyway to make purchase now

UR

Opened amex Plat last Dec, have welcome points in account . Opened Plat biz so can keep 2 welcome points, thinking to cancel first card I Jan. Will amex take away all welcome points ?
