You will encounter 2 types of fees when purchasing American Express Gift Cards – Purchase Fees and Shipping Fees. Purchase Fess are applied when you purchase online and in-store (fees are different depending where you buy). Shipping Fees are only involved when you purchase gift cards online.
Typically, there are coupon codes that either grant you No Purchase Fees or No Shipping Fees. You will rarely see promo codes that waive both fees, and usually, only one code can be applied if both codes exist.

Hey guys I recently called Amex customer service for gift cards and got hold of a new promotion code WEB4180 which is valid until 01/31/2017. This promotion code helped me wave off purchase fees on my previous gift card order. You guys can check it out too. Have fun. Take Care.
