How to Apply for the Amex Premier Rewards Gold Credit Card

The Amex Premier Rewards Gold Credit Card might seem a bit overpriced to some with its $195 annual fee; however, the earning potential is there and the Gold structure that Amex has built in insures a certain amount of credit security. It should be noted that this card functions differently than a typical credit card as you will not be issued an interest rate on what you spend, but instead you will need to pay off your balance in full at the end of each billing cycle. This feature may come in handy to some as the credit limit will be determined by the cardholder (to a certain extent, see terms and conditions) and as long as the balance is paid in time, the spending potential will remain far greater than it would with a regular card. If you take that into consideration with the rewards program which provides up to 3 points per $1 spent, you might find that the high price of this card is justified. There are, however, a variety of other reward cards available from Amex that have smaller annual fees, so applying for this card should only be considered to those who plan on taking advantage of the spending potential and possible savings achieved through the rewards program.
