In mid-May we learned that American Express is acquiring Resy, which seemed like an unconventional acquisition. For those of you not familiar with Resy, it’s a digital restaurant reservation booking and management platform.

Do you actually have to pay with an Amex? That was not specified in the terms. You just have to add it to Resy presumably so they know it’s an Amex platinum and can award points.
@Kai...I read it the same way you did. Actually, I don't even think you had to register the Platinum; the T&C's only mentioned an MR earning card when you clicked the "list of eligible cards." I still think I'll use my Gold though; doesn't seem worth the risk not to.
@Kai -
I read it the same way. Nowhere do the terms state you must pay with the Amex on file. Looks like an easy 500 points for eating out. Many of the restaurants around here are switching to Resy from Opentable, so should be easy to take advantage of.
Also curious if I actually have to use the card on file. Coincidentally booked a dinner yesterday (for tomorrow) with my dad and planning on him paying, as long as I still get the 500 points.
I can't find the offer on Amex. And I can't find a place to register my credit card on Resy. Where is this Resy Wallet you mention?
