Rumors are circulating that American Express will be revamping its entry level charge card – the Green Card. This card is the original Amex charge card, but despite its classic design and long history has failed to compete with other similar cards in recent years. But that may change in February or March this year if rumors are true…
New Amazon American Express Business Cards – Our Take
American Express and Amazon have partnered to launch a co-branded business credit card, available in two versions. Both the versions have no annual fee, although the more attractive of the two is available exclusively to Amazon Prime members, so you could view the $119 annual membership cost of Amazon Prime as the card’s annual fee. The signature benefits of these cards are as follows:

Save Over 60% on Uber Rides (Amex Offer)
Amex offers are one of my favorite features of American Express cards. These offers can be added to your card in your Amex online account and typically refund a certain amount of money at a certain store if you spend over a certain amount. For example spend $50 at X store, get $10 back. This obviously benefits Amex and these stores, because it serves as advertising for them, shop there once with an Amex offer and you may like it so much you continue to shop there! But still, wise consumers can save a lot of money by maximizing Amex offers.
Citi ThankYou Premier 60k Bonus Extended
