LOL people really don’t want to do any of the work these days huh?

There are TONS of resources online for you to find the card that works for you. Please do some research. Educate yourself.

Literally google.

@OP – There are literally so many types of Amex credit cards such that it would be too numerous to list and explain. I recommend googling Amex and reading and comparing the credit cards listed on their site in your jurisdiction. You should also look at specific Amex cards issued by each of the banks in your jurisdiction.

Amex has nothing to do with it. The best credit card is the one that maximizes your points and/or offers perks that you would take advantage of

I love my AMEX cause it gives me points where it matters most for me, but so many banks have different offers that can still be as beneficial

Not if you pay your bills

As others have said there are many options and depends on your spend, but here are the benefits I value from the 2 I have...
Plat (5x on Travel/Hotel): 200 airline credit, clear/precheck credit, 200 uber credit, amex lounge/priority pass access, rental car insurance, espn+/nyt, concierge is helpful but quality has gone down in recent years

Gold (4x on dining/groceries): 120 uber credit, 120 grubhub

Amex offers a wide variety of cards. Please be more specific about which one(s) you are considering.

Google it, come on now

Platinum gets you a cool metal card and some good deals on shopping and dining

Guys I know google will help i am asking to know the satisfaction rate and your experience of using this card so that I can take a wise decision

Thanks those who shared their comments of their experiences

Amex charges you an annual fee for the right to charge you interest

But if you pay a lot of interest you get good deals to spend more money! 🤡

This is irrelevant if you pay your statements in full, which should be your approach with amex as its a charge card not a credit card. I have never paid out of pocket for a vacation in 4 years using my amex gold points from my normal spending habits. Always paid statements in full never paid any interest.

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.
