1. Tweet "#BuyAmexGiftCard25" to get started. Look for a reply from @AmexSync with additional instructions. You’ll be prompted by @AmexSync to sync your Card for purchases, if you haven’t already.
2. Next, look for a response in your Twitter account from @AmexSync with the confirmation "#hashtag" (the actual hashtag is #ConfirmAmex25GiftCard, but you can't just tweet this hashtag without doing step #1 first). Tweet this #hashtag within 15 minutes of the response from @AmexSync to confirm your purchase.
You should see a confirmation email from AMEX shortly thereafter that looks something like this--
Dear labboypro,
Thank you for using your American Express® Card ending in nnnnn to purchase the $25 American Express Gift Card through AMEX Sync on Twitter. See below for your order details.
Our 3rd party fulfillment partner, Links Unlimited, will ship the product via free 2-day shipping to your billing address and will send a confirmation email on behalf of American Express with tracking information. The charge will appear on your American Express statement as "AMEX Sync via Links."
Order Date: 02/11/2013 Order number: nnnnnnnnn Billing address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It took almost 20 minutes for it to show up on twitter. Looks like you have 15 minutes from when THEY give you the code not when you put in the address info.
Had to update my card info but then couldn't get them to reply with the confirmation, they would just say read their first reply. Had to send it to @askamex but it finally went through. Only took about 75mins.
Can you buy more than one using the same twitter account and different card? I tried and got this response "You've already purchased the $25 AMEX Gift Card (limit 1 per synced Card). If an error, contact @AskAmex"

If you're giving Twitter your AMEX account number, you're doing it wrong.

in a broader sense, what is the marketing connection to pair the two?
Thanks OP, since I don't use twitter at all, it took me a fw minutes to figure how this whole thing works. After an hour of clicking and trying, I got my emial confirmation.
It's working pretty fast now. I just did it 6 times with 6 cards and 6 twitter accounts. Only took about 30 minutes to do them all. The last few tweeted back almost instantly.

I took a peek at my AMEX to see if I was cancelling Blockbuster today (I was) and I saw 1$, 1$ and 15$ from a shady-looking company name. I was about to email my banking co., then realised that it was probably whoever is running this stupid promotion. Realise that the 1$ and 1$ charges will probably disappear soon, but what is the deal? - E
Why did you participate in this "stupid promotion"? If you bothered to read the email confirmation, you would have known that Links Unlimited is the fulfillment company.
Why I participated is not germane to the question I was asking. Why are you launching personal attacks at me like if this was 4chan?
Here is a reason I certainly did NOT participate: to have a bunch of 1$ charges from a ridiculously shady sounding company posted to my account.
How many are necessary to ensure that the card is legitimate? It is a rhetorical question; no need to answer. Certainly not more than one.
