The integration follows American Express’s acquisition of reservation platform Resy in 2019 and booking platform Tock in 2024, moves designed to merge the two ecosystems. While Tock venues officially became searchable on Resy starting August 11, statement credits did not immediately apply to the newly added locations, according to The Points Guy.

### Statement Credit Expansion Details

Beginning September 15, select U.S.-based Tock venues will accept the Resy statement credit available on eligible American Express cards. An American Express spokesperson told The Points Guy that hundreds of Tock locations across major U.S. markets will qualify on that date, with additional venues joining on a rolling basis over subsequent months. To help cardmembers distinguish between participating and non-participating locations, Resy displays a specific badge on venue pages. According to American Express statements cited by The Points Guy, this badge does not narrow the existing pool of eligible Resy restaurants, but rather identifies which newly integrated Tock venues currently qualify for the credit.

### Cardholder Impact and Deadlines

The September 15 rollout arrives near the end of the third quarter, creating a specific timing window for cardmembers holding the American Express Platinum Card. According to reporting from The Points Guy, the date leaves cardholders about two weeks to enroll and use up to $100 in third-quarter Resy statement credits before benefits reset on October 1. Several American Express products feature Resy statement credits, ranging from up to $10 per month to up to $100 per quarter, depending on the specific card. Cardholders must enroll in the benefit prior to dining and pay with their eligible American Express card at a qualifying venue. No reservation is required to trigger the credit, though the restaurant or experience must show the designated badge on the Resy website or mobile app at the time of purchase, according to card terms updated by American Express.

### Platform Integration Background

The merger brings together a combined network of more than 25,000 restaurants, wineries, and ticketed culinary experiences. While Resy has historically focused on standard table reservations, Tock is widely known for high-end tasting menus, omakase counters, and prepaid events at establishments such as The French Laundry, Alinea, Smyth, and Per Se.
