What is Shop Small?
If you are unfamiliar with Amex’s Shop Small, these are merchants that accept Amex that are not major retailers like your Sobeys, Staples, Walmart type of stores. These are more of your mom and pop, independent small businesses, food trucks and so on. Each and every year American Express supports their Small Business partners globally with these Shop Small promotions to encourage cardmembers to go out and shop at these retailers.
Finding Shop Small merchants
To find participating retailers you can go to Amex’s Shop Small map page which is great for searching for the non-major retailers that accept Amex. Simply look for the Shop Small logo beside a merchant name!
You can also utilize our complete Cobalt Confirmed Multipliers list as that lists hundreds of merchants that are confirmed to accept American Express. I also recommend reading: Rewards Canada’s step by step guide to the American Express Shop Small Program
The Scotiabank American Express Cards:
These are the cards that can be used for this promotion. If you don’t have one you could try applying right away for one and hope that by the time you receive it that 10,000 card limit for the Shop Small offer has not been met!
