American Express - Cash Rebate Card

Pros: Loaded with membership perks.
Cons: Not Widely Accepted

If you’re going to use a credit card, you might as well get compensated for it. But the cash rebate is just the one of the many features that attracted me to the card in the first place.



Why I Chose The American Express...

Pros: World Class Company, Excellent Service, Potential Cash$$$$
Cons: Less widely accepted than MC/Visa, high charge levels for highest rebates.

With Credit Card offers in the mail everyday, why did I throw them all away and ASK for this card? Simple. More Cash in my pocket. I've received $292.61 in cash rebates since '95 when I first started using my Sunoco Master Card (Rebate Card). I expect...

Pros: Amazingly lucrative. Up to 5% reward (1.5 to 3% normally)
Cons: Not all retailers accept AmEx

AmEx has replaced their Cash Rebate card with a new "Blue Cash" card that offers up to 5% cash back. The new card is the best (and most lucrative) credit card I have ever owned in my life. There is no annual fee. This is an extremely complicated card, a ...

Pros: Best cash back for big spenders. 1.5% on all purchases, 5% on gas/groceries.
Cons: Big penalties for late/non-full payments, many establishments don't take AmEx.

The only people who should get this card are people who don't ever carry a balance. If you plan on carrying a balance, you'll pay much more in interest compared to other, lower-APR cards than you'll ever make in rewards. I promise. So, you're ...

Pros: Plenty of cash back for big spenders
Cons: Light and medium spenders can earn more with Discover

Other writers have vaunted the American Express Cash Rebate Card, calling it better than Discover - at least in regards to the cash rebates. But you have to read the fine print carefully in order to understand what's going on.

The American...

Pros: Great Cash Rebate Program, No Annual Fee
Cons: Not Accepted Everywhere

First of all, I need to start by saying my evaluation of a credit card is based on the assumption that the balance is paid off in full every month.

This card is not suitable for people who do not wish to pay their balance off in full...

Pros: good rebates for purchases > $5,000/yr.
Cons: poor acceptance, lower initial rebates

The Amex Cash Rebate card is structured to be a direct competitor to the Novus Discover Card. While both cards offer you No Annual Fee service, low "introductory" rates, and the ability to carry a balance, their cash payout (the most important...

Pros: 1.5% average cash rebate, no hidden fees, easy to setup inquiry
Cons: Complex tiered cash-back structure, usual Amex card issues

After reading helpful reviews by other epinion users, I asked my wife to convert her Amex card to a cash rebate card with a higher credit limit. We've been using this card for the past one year, and just last month, we got our cash rebate which was ...

Pros: great policies, perks
Cons: low rebate prices, not universally accepted

I like American Express a lot, not so much for the card, but for the benefits and all the extra perks and benefits they kick in.

Cashback Reward

Pros: Potential to earn high Rebate Rate, and No Rebate Limit
Cons: Poor Acceptance

There are many cash rebate cards on the market.But few offer a rebate rate higher than 1% and without a rebate ceiling. However, with this card, you have the potential to earn a rebate rate higher than 1%, and there is no limit on how much you can earn....

Pros: Pay off your card every month? The rebate is for real.
Cons: Must spend upwards of $5000 to receive the 1.5% rebate

After a year of car repairs, gift purchases, gas and groceries, my consistent use of my American Express rebate card paid off with a $97 rebate on my most recent statement. That's not a bad chunk of change for stuff you'd buy anyway. I charged about ...

In almost every respect, this is a great credit card. First, it comes with all the services American Express is famous for and it's accepted all over the place. Second, there is no annual fee. Third, the cash back rate is the highest I've ever found....
