Amex sign up bonus - who is wrong?

1% minimum repayment credit cards
Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows a quick way to identify 1% of monthly balance repayment cards? It’s quite hard to find which ones are.

American Express (Amex) Preferred Rewards Gold
In the blurb about the benefits of this card it says that the £5k doesn't have to a cash spend but could be a balance transfer. Where does it say this in the Ts&Cs and also does a balance transfer not incure a fee of 3% which eats into the benefits?
