A new Amex Offer has surfaced that allows you to earn back 20% of your total purchases as a statement credit by using American Express cards at participating Shangri-La hotels in Canada until May 31, 2024.
If you’re eyeing up a stay at one of the two Canadian properties in Toronto or Vancouver, be sure to take advantage of this offer for an effective 20% discount on your stay.
Shangri-La Hotels: 20% Back as a Statement Credit
With this offer, you’ll earn 20% back of your total purchase as a statement credit at Shangri-La hotels in Canada, up to a total of $150 (all figures in CAD), equivalent to $750 of total spend. The total cost after all taxes and fees are accounted for will count as the total purchase.
Eligible use cases include transactions made at the Shangri-La Toronto, Shangri-La Vancouver, or at the Shangri-La Amex website for one of these two properties.
Each time an eligible transaction is made, this offer will be triggered, and you can expect 20% back in the form of a statement credit.
The terms and conditions state that the statement credit will be applied within 90 days of the offer’s expiry date, but it’ll most likely show up within a few days after the transaction.
This offer expires on May 31, 2024, and there’s no registration cap this time around.
It’s worth noting that the 20% back as a statement credit technically only applies to room rates and room charges. As per the terms and conditions of the offer, the following charges aren’t eligible to trigger the statement credit:
Excludes reservations made by phone, Momofuku restaurant partnership, hotel restaurants, spa, Gift Cards, Loyalty programs, Serviced Apartments, Meetings & Events, Destination Events, Experiences, Car Rentals, Taxi services, and other retail outlet purchases within the property, including online purchases.
We’ve seen this offer popping up across a wide range of American Express cards, so be sure to check all cards for offers.
If you’re playing the game in two-player mode or more, be sure to check each individual’s cards to see whether the offer has shown up and register accordingly.
Elevate Your Stay with Shangri-La Luxury Circle
If you don’t have status with Shangri-La, or even if you do but you wish to further elevate your stay, booking with Prince Collection through Shangri-La Luxury Circle would entitle you to additional benefits for no additional cost.
Book a hotel stay with Prince of Travel through Shangri-La Luxury Circle and enjoy exclusive additional benefits at no cost to you, including:
- Daily full breakfast for two guests, including in-room dining
- Upgrade to the next room type category, subject to availability at the time of booking
- Early check-in and late check-out, subject to availability
- Property credit of $100 (USD) or 10% of the room rate, whichever is higher
- Welcome amenity
- Third, Fourth, or Fifth Night Free at select properties
The Luxury Circle rate is the same as the best available flexible rate, which can be higher than prepaid rates, member rates, corporate rates, etc. that you may also have access to.
In this case, you’ll want to weigh up the savings on those rates and how much you value the benefits of booking through Luxury Circle.
Scotiabank American Express Cardholders Can Register Too
As we’ve seen on previous Amex Offers, the offer is also available for primary and supplementary cardholders of the Scotiabank American Express products, including the Scotiabank Gold American Express Card, the Scotiabank American Express Card, and the Scotiabank Platinum American Express Card.
The registration portal is accessible via this link.
This gives you yet another avenue to maximizing your savings under this promotion by registering and using the Amex Offer on both your Amex- and Scotiabank-issued products.
If you have a more expensive stay at the Shangri-La Toronto or Vancouver lined up, you can register multiple primary and supplementary cardholders for the offer and split the bill to maximize the $150 statement credits.
Conclusion
A new Shangri-La Amex Offer allows eligible cardholders to earn 20% back in statement credit on any transactions made at Shangri-La hotels in Canada, for up to $150 back. The statement credit is provided as a part of the total spend after all taxes and fees have been accounted for.
You should have at least one American Express card targeted for this offer, so be sure to check all of your cards to see if the promotion pops up. For those with Scotiabank American Express products, be sure to register via the portal link to multiply your savings.
This offer expires on May 31, 2024, so you’ll want to plan your stay before then to take advantage of this offer.
