Rewards cards aren't guaranteed to earn and keep their stripes, but the American Express® Gold Card endures. Its shiny gold (or rose gold, if you prefer) finish suggests a card that offers attractive perks and appealing rewards rates.
The Amex Gold was the fourth card I added to my wallet, and it remains there because it delivers exactly the level of benefits you'd expect at first glance. It's one of the best rewards cards currently available, but like every other card on the market, it isn't for everyone.
Here's a breakdown of every feature on this card, how it plays its role in my wallet and why (or why not) it may be for you. Card rating*: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
