Want a travel card that knows no boundaries?
Introducing the American Express® Preferred Rewards Gold Card.

You also get all the other great benefits you'd expect from American Express such as Preferred Seating11 and 24hr customer service. With a fee of just £125 a year, it's excellent value for money too.

If you'd prefer a card without any rewards, other features or a Cardmembership fee, an alternative option is available – the Basic Card.
