Amex Gold vs. Chase Sapphire Preferred by Caroline Tanner, News Reporter I've shared in past newsletters that the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card is my go-to travel rewards card, thanks to its low annual fee, increased earning rates in certain categories and variety of valuable transfer partners like Hyatt and United Airlines. But if that doesn't sound like the right card for you, allow me to suggest a different card — the American Express® Gold Card. Both cards have a 60,000-point welcome bonus that is awarded after spending $6,000 in the first six months with the Amex Gold versus $4,000 in the first three months with the Sapphire Preferred. Their transfer partners, bonus categories and built-in perks are also unique, so here's more information to help you decide which card is the better choice for your wallet: The Chase Sapphire Preferred Card current offer The American Express Gold Card current offer Compare these two cards side by side Posts in this newsletter contains references to products from one or more of our advertisers.
