The American Express® Gold Card (review) is one of the best cards for earning Membership Rewards points, and it also has an excellent welcome offer. The card is ideal for anyone who spends a lot on dining, whether at restaurants or supermarkets, and in my experience, getting approved for the card is quite easy.
The Amex Gold Card has a $325 annual fee (Rates & Fees), though the card also offers up to $424 in annual credits, which could more than offset the annual fee, not even accounting for all the other perks.
Now, a vast majority of cardmembers aren’t going to maximize all the Amex Gold Card credits, since it is a bit of a “coupon book” vibe, in terms of how the credits are issued. In this post, I’d like to take a look at the Amex Gold Card credits, including the restrictions, and how they can be redeemed.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
