I’m going to cancel my Amex corporate reward program. Thinking to either transfer all my points to Delta, or open up a no-fee personal Amex to park my points in. Any advice on which would be a better choice?

Best rewards (cash) credit card on the market you’ve seen? I have excellent credit, and considering cancelling my Amex platinum before it renews mid sept (the annual fee just doesn’t seem worth it without the travel perks or me getting many points from purchases on my corporate acct). I have some big purchases (5k, 20k+) coming up for reno costs in next few months and want to maximize cash back. I’m based in Canada, but just post your faves and I’ll see which ones also work here.

I pay to earn the AMEX points on my corporate card. My “membership” ends in September. Is it worth renewing for $55 to keep the points and continue to earn - not knowing when I will travel again and break even / “profit” from this? It’s also only $55 so I feel like might be worth to spend so I don’t need to cash out on my accumulated points.

For reference: I don’t have a personal AMEX, only corporate
