How do you redeem your American Express gift card?

Make sure you know the amount on the gift card. The card will come up declined at a retailer if it is "swiped" for more than the amount it is worth. Otherwise, it works just like an American Express card, which means you can use it anywhere that takes American Express. Last night I had to explain to a cashier that they have to enter in the amount remaining on the card if the purchase you are making is higher than the card value. Most cash registers allow for this by having an input for "amount" for credit card purchases.
