NOTE: This card earns 5x on airfare and hotels, however, the airfare must be booked direct with the airline or at Amex Travel and the hotels must be prepaid at Amex Travel to earn 5x. Limit of up to $500,000 on these purchases per calendar year.

Is the American Express® Gold Card the best card for dining and groceries?

The Gold Card offers 4x Membership Rewards points at restaurants (including U.S. takeout and delivery) and at US supermarkets (up to $25,000 a year; 1X thereafter), as well as 3x on flights booked directly with airlines or on amextravel.com.

It also offers $20 in monthly dining statement credits - $10 monthly at Grubhub, The Cheesecake Factory, Goldbelly, Wine.com, Milk Bar and select Shake Shack locations. Enrollment and $10 in Uber Cash each month. Enrollment required / terms apply.

(Superstores, convenience stores and warehouse clubs are NOT considered supermarkets.)

It's also important to note that as a card product that American Express used to classify as "charge" - meaning that it has No Preset Spending Limit - so it is not counted against your 5 Amex credit card limit. The Gold Card will still be in the category of cards (former charge products) in which you can have up to 10. Those include the Green, Gold, Platinum, and Centurion.

With the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant® American Express® Card, you'll receive automatic Marriott Platinum status and 25 elite nights credits every year.
