It is one of the Tock restaurants the credit has applied at since 15 September 2026: Resy lists it, and it is booked on Tock. It is not on the Platinum Global Dining Credit, which cards issued outside the US carry.
Does Merchant Roots count towards the Amex Resy credit?
Yes.

To use it, enrol the credit in your Amex account, then pay the bill with that card at Merchant Roots in San Francisco, United States. Merchant Roots books through Tock, not Resy — reserve on Tock — and since 15 September 2026 the credit applies at selected Tock restaurants like it.
