Purchase protection and extended warranty

Purchases made with your Card can be covered against theft, accidental damage or loss for up to 90 days, and you can get up to one extra year added to the original manufacturer's warranty. If a seller won't take back an eligible item within 90 days of purchase, Return Protection lets you return it to American Express instead.

Conditions: For Card Members who pay with the Card. Purchase protection covers up to $10,000 per covered purchase and $50,000 per calendar year. Extended warranty applies to original manufacturer's warranties of 5 years or less on covered purchases in the United States or its territories. Return Protection can refund the full purchase price, excluding shipping and handling, up to $300 per item and $1,000 per Card account each calendar year, for items bought entirely with the Card in the U.S. or its territories. Exclusions and restrictions apply.
