American Express[1] has rolled out a new way for small-business owners to save on one of their most useful digital tools.
The issuer has added a Squarespace[2] statement credit worth up to $150 per calendar year for U.S. purchases with Squarespace on the American Express® Business Gold Card[3]. It’s now available to both new and existing cardmembers (enrollment required).
Amex Business Gold Squarespace credit details
With Squarespace, Business Gold Card[4] members can build and manage professional websites — including tools for e-commerce, scheduling, invoicing and marketing — all in one place.
Since Squarespace plans[5] range from $192 to $1,668 a year, this new perk could cover about 78% of a base-level Basic annual plan, significantly offsetting the card’s $375 annual fee (see rates and fees[6]).
Enrollment in the benefit is now open, and once activated, you’ll receive up to $150 in statement credits each calendar year when you use your Business Gold Card to pay for eligible Squarespace purchases in the U.S.
Given that it’s a calendar year benefit, cardmembers can double-dip by using this year’s $150 benefit, then using another $150 after Jan. 1, netting $300 in value in one cardmember year.

- Up to $155 back annually (up to $12.95 plus applicable taxes on one membership fee; Plus Up Benefits are not eligible) for a monthly Walmart+[9] membership (subject to auto-renewal)
