American Express Travel Rewards Cards

Enjoy all the benefits, convenience and security of an American Express Card – with the added bonus of earning more points when you use your Card for your travel purchases.

Why choose an American Express Travel Rewards Card?

If you love to travel, for business or pleasure, an American Express Travel Rewards Card is the perfect travel companion. That's because you will accumulate rewards points at a higher rate with every dollar you spend on your credit or charge Card. For example, the American Express^® Gold Rewards Card gives you double Membership Rewards^® points for virtually all travel-related spend, as well as double points on virtually all spend made whilst abroad.

Rewards can be exchanged for flights, holidays or hotel bookings or, with some Cards, a combination of all three. Our Travel Rewards Cards also offer great benefits, like the Platinum Lounge Benefit¹ , companion flight tickets² , and travel insurance coverages.

American Express Cardmembers can purchase tickets to many sought-after events before they go on sale to the general public. During the specified sale period, tickets are available exclusively to all American Express^® Cardmembers.³
