Trying to decide if Amex Green is worth it for travel perks?

Started by Jessica1993 1 months ago 2 replies 80 views
I've been looking at the Amex Green Card, and I'm wondering if it's actually worth it for the travel perks it offers. It's got that 3x points on travel and dining, which seems decent, but I'm not sure how it stacks up against the other Amex cards like the Gold or Platinum.

The annual fee is lower, which is nice, but does it really offer enough benefits for someone who travels a few times a year? I know it has no foreign transaction fees and such, but I'm curious if anyone here has experience using it for booking flights or hotels. Plus, that $100 LoungeBuddy credit-does it make a difference?

If anyone's used it for redeeming points or taken advantage of the travel credits, I'd love to hear how it worked out. Trying to figure out if I should go for it or maybe look at another card. Thoughts?
I used the Amex Green for a bit, and honestly, the 3x points on travel and dining is decent if you don't travel super often. But if you travel more frequently, the Gold or Platinum might give you better value with their extra perks. The $100 LoungeBuddy credit is nice but not a game-changer unless you're really into lounges. I found it handy when I traveled, but not enough to sway me completely. If you're after more travel credits and perks, maybe crunch the numbers on the Gold or Platinum to see if the higher fee pays off.
