American Express Cobalt Card Multipliers

American Express Cobalt Card: 40 new confirmed multiplier locations to earn up to 5x points!

Here’s the next update to our American Express Cobalt Card Confirmed Multiplier Locations list with 40 new locations from across Canada being added today.

A big thank you to the RWRDS Canada community for providing all the latest details on these new locations that have been added to the thousands of locations where you can use the best credit card in Canada, the American Express Cobalt Card, to earn up to 5x points.

Even though we focus on the Cobalt Card for this feature it is also a good resource to see where Amex cards in general are accepted if you have one of their many other cards. For example, the vet we use is 1x point with Cobalt so I use my Marriott Bonvoy card there to earn 2x points.

The 40 new locations:

How to submit your multiplier locations

We have created a new Google Sheets spreadsheet for our community to use to contribute the multipliers. It should make the submission process easier for both you and me!  You can find the spreadsheet here. (If you don’t want your name tracked in the changes by Google Sheets simply log out of your Google account before submitting, it will just show up as anonymous!)

We are no longer updating locations outside of Canada

Based on feedback from the community we are no longer updating the lists for outside of Canada as the card no longer earns its multipliers on foreign purchases.
