I think that if you have/get another Amex card and link the accounts you should be able to keep the points.

Definitely lose Amex points as soon as the card is deactivated.

Convert to gift cards or transfer to airline points

Get any other Amex that generates MR points and you'll keep them forever

Agreed. Find apply for a personal Amex that uses MR points for rewards and you will have one shared bucket between all cards. As long as one Amex with MR is open, you will not lose any points. Have to do it before you close you corp card bc getting them back is tough.

Thanks all-may just redeem them all for a ton of Starbucks bucks

Think this consolidation period is going to end in the near term, primarily driven by:

2. Coinbase to offer staking for ETH in Q1 ‘21 - think how much will get locked up.

3. GME / stonks fallout - retail may moreso see the benefits of decentralization and crypto. Yes Coinbase is CEX to get you onboard, but DEX can’t be turned off.
