Premium NBC streaming service offered

Editor’s note:

NBC boldly entered the competitive on-demand streaming market with Peacock in 2020.

And now American Express is offering many of its customers the chance to kick the tires on the platform’s premium subscription in 2021.

If you have an American Express credit card that is eligible to participate in the Amex Offers program, you’re just a few clicks away from enjoying Peacock’s premium subscription for free for three months.

From now until March 31, 2021, eligible cardholders will be able to opt in to get their $4.99 Peacock Premium subscription charge reimbursed for up to three months.

So what is the catch? Well, there isn’t one. But there are a few hoops you’ll have to jump through to ensure you get reimbursed.

Step 1: Log in to your cardholder account on the

American Express mobile app or website. From there, you can access the “Amex Offers” tab from the menu to see if your card is eligible to claim the offer.

Step 2: If you are eligible, you’ll have to add the offer to your card in order to qualify for the reimbursement. You do that by clicking “Add to Card” once you have pulled up the offer.

Step 3: The final step is to make sure you use your selected American Express card to purchase a subscription directly through NBC’s Peacock at peacocktv.com. That means you should not sign up through Google, Apple, Amazon or any other third party that carry Peacock through their streaming devices. The purchase needs to go directly through Peacock for American Express to recognize the transaction is eligible for this promotion.

If you’re an American Express cardholder who is not taking advantage of the Amex Offers program, you should definitely take a few minutes to check it out. All you have to do is log in via the app or website to get access to hundreds of discount offers and freebies. Most of them require that you opt in to receive the promotion, but that’s usually just a quick click.
