Using the dell credit/amex discount with multiple cards

With the amex business plat I get a $100 dell credit and I have an amex offer for 10% off. I just got the ameriprise plat from amex. I want to pick up a monitor. Can I use both cards to pay the dell bill at the same time (it appears in the language on the dell website you can use up to two cards but I havent seen the payment screen yet). Will doing so negate the 10% off amex offer?

It’s just a guess, but I think you’ll receive 10% of whatever amount you charge to your card.

Yea I didn't understand before when I asked the question but realized after that the way it works is amex credits you back 10% after the purchase so I was forced to put the full amount on the card with the discount.

Keep in mind you can buy lots of nonsense on the dell website. It should not be too hard to take advantage of the credit.

I guess but what I actually needed was a monitor so that is what I went for. The dell credit isn't worth me keeping the biz card going forward but since I still have it at the moment I figured I should take advantage to buy something I needed anyway. Should save around $157 total.
