Like with most credit card issues, Amex offers several variants of cards within the same family. In this case, the Amex EveryDay Preferred card is the upgraded (annual fee) version of the Amex EveryDay card. Like the EveryDay card, this card earns MR points, but it has a $95 annual fee.

Amex EveryDay
Within the Amex portfolio, there are two cards dubbed ‘Everyday’: the Blue Cash Everyday and the EveryDay card, both of which have no annual fee and have similar earning categories. They also exist in annual fee versions with the addition of the word, ‘Preferred’. The main difference is that the EveryDay card earns Amex MembershipContinue reading “Amex EveryDay”
American Express Blue Cash Everyday
Most of the credit cards that I find interesting are cards that earn points, rather than straight cashback, because with points comes a system that can be played and more value can be found.

The Amex Gold Card is one of the most iconic and also one ofContinue reading “American Express Gold Card (USA) – 2022 outdated”
American Express Green Card
I’ve gone through some of my favorite Chase cards, so I figured I’d now go through some US-based Amex cards. The first card on the agenda is the ‘classic’ Amex card: the Green Card. This card is one of my favorites. It was my second Amex card (and first Amex charge card) and my firstContinue reading “American Express Green Card”
