TopCashBack has raised the cash back rate on Amex Gift cards to 3% through the rest of this year! BigCrumbs is currently still offering 1.75% cash back.
Even though both portals claim that you cannot use a coupon code not found on their site, I’ve had luck earning cash back with both portals despite using codes. Most recently I’ve successfully used code HOLIDAYPBD for business gift cards HOLIDAYCC4 to waive gift card fees (but some readers have not been able to get this to work YMMV). You’ll still have to pay for shipping, but you could get that waived too by signing up for a free trial of their $99 unlimited shipping option.
BEWARE of credit cards that charge cash advance fees for these purposes. The latest reports show that Chase and American Express credit cards are safe, as well as Barclays Arrival World MasterCard. There have been reports of cash advance fees charged by Citibank, and US Bank. Your mileage may vary. Results may change at any time. The best way that I know of to protect yourself is to get your cash advance limit lowered as far as possible, then make sure your gift card purchases are greater than that amount.
