They say looks aren’t everything but let’s be honest, it’s hard to ignore the striking American Express® Gold Card in Rose Gold.
With its pinkish gold hue and metallic texture, Amex’s Gold card in Rose Gold is one of the best-looking credit cards out there. And lucky for all of us, the card is great on the inside, too. It earns top marks for dining and supermarkets, placing it on our lists of best cards for both categories.
The Amex Gold Card — with Rose Gold and Gold color options — offers 4 Membership Rewards points per dollar spent at restaurants, including takeout and delivery in the U.S., and at U.S. supermarkets (up to $25,000 per calendar year, then 1 point per dollar). You’ll also earn 3 points per dollar spent on flights booked directly with the airline or amextravel.com and an up to $120 dining credit (up to $10 per month in statement credits with participating partners, enrollment required).
What’s more, you can get up to $120 annually ($10 per month) in Uber Cash, which can be used on Uber Eats orders or Uber rides in the U.S. Just make sure to add your Gold Card to your Uber account first.
Should you fully maximize the annual Uber perk (up to $120) and dining credit perk (up to $120), you’ll be able to offset most of the $250 annual fee (see rates and fees) on the card. And that doesn’t include the other benefits the card offers. Enrollment required for select benefits.
New applicants who are approved for the Gold card and revived Rose Gold option can earn 60,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $4,000 on eligible purchases with the card within the first six months of account opening. Based on TPG’s latest valuations, that bonus is worth $1,200. However, you might be able to earn a higher sign-up bonus through a friend or loved one’s referral link through June 7.
