While the campaign runs for eight weeks (June 28 to August 23, 2021), any purchases made prior to card registration will not apply. Fortunately, if you haven’t signed up already, it’s not too late. At the time of publishing, cardholders have just over three weeks left to “Shop Small,” whether in-store, online or by curbside pick-up.
“As more of the country comes out of lockdown, we’re all ready to come together again and support the small businesses that make our neighbourhoods special,” Lisa Kalhans, President and CEO of American Express Canada, said in a release. “Canadians have been rooting for their favourite local spots and we’re thrilled to provide another outlet for that enthusiasm with our latest Shop Small campaign.”
In 2020, American Express made a $200 million commitment to jumpstart spending and saw Canadians swipe their cards at over 64,000 small businesses across the country.
