You will receive 1 additional point (for a total of 2 points) for each dollar of eligible purchases on your Card Account at Lowe's stores, and Lowes.com. You will receive 2 additional points (for a total of 3 points) for each dollar of eligible purchases on your Card Account at restaurants located in the U.S., at office supply stores located in the U.S. (office supplies purchased at other retail stores are excluded), and on monthly wireless telephone services purchased directly from U.S. wireless telephone service providers (purchases of hardware and equipment are excluded; any purchases from third parties and resellers are excluded).Lowe’s Business Rewards points can be redeemed for Lowe’s® Gift Cards, American Express® Gift Cards, Gas Reward Cards, and Outdoor Reward Cards (Outdoor Reward Cards retailers include L.L.Bean, Cabela’s®, Austad’s® and Bass Pro Shops®).

Eligible Purchases are purchases for goods and services minus returns and other credits. Eligible purchases do NOT include fees or interest charges, cash advances, purchases of travelers checks, purchases or reloading of prepaid cards, or purchases of any cash equivalents.
Merchants are assigned codes based on what they primarily sell. A purchase will not earn additional points if the merchant’s code is not eligible. Purchases made through a third-party payment account or on an online marketplace (with multiple retailers) will not earn additional points. A purchase may not earn additional points if the merchant submits the purchase using a mobile or wireless card reader or if you use a mobile or digital wallet.
3. Lowe's Business Rewards Redemption Options The American Express® Gift Card, the Gas Rewards Card, and Outdoor Rewards Card can be used at U.S. merchants that accept American Express® Cards. No ATM cash withdrawal. Some limitations apply, including restrictions on use at cruise lines or for recurring billing. See Cardholder Agreements for complete details. Cards cannot be redeemed for cash except where required by law. Cards are issued by American Express Prepaid Card Management Corporations.
When using your Card to pay for gasoline, we recommend you prepay inside the station rather than paying for gasoline at the pump. However, if you pay for gasoline at the pump please note many pumps seek a preauthorization before allowing you to use the Card which could be up to $75 or more. This is called a “Preauthorization Request”. If you have insufficient funds on your Card to cover the “Preauthorization Request”, the Card may be declined. When a merchant submits this Preauthorization Request, we will hold the amount of the Preauthorization Request until the final transaction is cleared. If the total cost of your gasoline purchase is less than the Preauthorization Request, we will release the difference between the total gasoline purchase and the Preauthorization Request, typically within 8 business days. During the period when funds are temporarily held, funds will not be available for use.
4. The OPEN Savings® Benefit OPEN Savings® Benefit: The OPEN Savings benefit is built in to Business Cards from American Express OPEN and provides a 5% discount for each eligible dollar spent at OPEN Savings merchants. The discount is provided in the form of a statement credit. To take advantage of this benefit, payment must be made with a Business Card from American Express OPEN at the time of purchase. All Cards under a particular Card Account (including the Basic Card as well as any Additional or Employee Cards) are combined for the purposes of calculating OPEN Savings benefits. All OPEN Savings benefits are credited to the Basic Card Member only. Please allow up to 12 weeks for your benefit to appear on your monthly statement. Purchases that are eligible for the OPEN Savings benefit that are returned or credited from an OPEN Savings merchant will result in a reversal of your statement credit. The benefit may not be available at all OPEN Savings partner locations. For a full list of individual OPEN Savings merchants and benefit descriptions, please visit opensavings.com. The OPEN Savings benefit (including merchant participation and offers) is subject to change at any time without notice.
