Would it be better to donate just $50

  You do end up getting 70 amex points instead of 50 , previous deals gave 1500 amex points. I had to call red cross for them to stop sending me letters asking for more donations.

  Wouldn’t that mean the Red Cross would receive $20 less in donations than if you gave $70? Not sure if they have to ‘subsidise’ part of the promotion alongside Amex (like I assume normal businesses might with such cashback deals) but hopefully not.

Nice. Tax deductible too.

Targeted I think - not on my platinum card, reserve or edge

This offer could be used at the Red Cross shop?

  Doubt it would apply for purchases from their shop if the offer specifically refers to ‘Donate’.

    I think it still would work as long as Red Cross is still the payment processor (which it looks like it does). Nevertheless I would rather make a tax deductible donation rather than spend $50 on things I don't need.
