In this post, I’d like to recap my favorite way of earning Amex Membership Rewards points that doesn’t involve credit cards. I’m talking about the ability to earn Amex points for online shopping through Rakuten, and that’s also why Rakuten is my favorite online shopping portal. I’d also like to compare it to the ability to earn Bilt Rewards points through Rakuten, since that’s still a relatively new opportunity.
Regardless of how you choose to be rewarded, this is the ideal time to sign-up, given the best-ever bonus for new members.

Whenever I make an online purchase, I always check to see which shopping portal has the best bonus. Rakuten (formerly known as Ebates) is one of the largest online shopping portals, and also my absolute favorite, both thanks to the great interface it offers, and more importantly, thanks to the ability to earn Amex Membership Rewards points, which offers disproportionate value. In this post, I’ll take a closer look at how that works.
Earning Amex points for online shopping
Rakuten offers the ability to earn Amex Membership Rewards points in lieu of cash back for online shopping. This feature is available to anyone who has an Amex card that earns Membership Rewards points.
