In-Depth Credit Card Review |
This online card application is intended for residents of the United States only. For other country options, please refer to the right hand menu bar.
One from American Express® is designed for those with good or excellent credit who plan to take advantage of the unique Savings Accelerator Plan.
Through the Savings Accelerator Plan, cardholders earn a cash rebate of 1% on all eligible purchases. The rebates are deposited into an FDIC-insured, high-yield savings account in the cardholder's name with a special rate of 2.75% APY (variable rate as of 4/15/2008). Plus, $50 will be deposited into the savings account after the cardholder makes their first purchase.
Aside from the cash rebates, this card provides benefits and services commonly found with American Express® credit cards, such as auto rental insurance, a purchase protection plan, and up to $100,000 in travel accident insurance.
This card has an annual fee of $35 that is waived the first year, and the APR for purchases is reasonable for a reward card.
Therefore, those who plan to take advantage of the Savings Accelerator Plan rebate program and the various standard services will benefit most from what the One from American Express® has to offer.
Most Attractive Feature: Receive $50 after the first purchase; cash back rebate program; no annual fee your first year.
Least Attractive Feature: Not all applicants may qualify for the lowest rate offered; cash back rebates are earned for purchases only.
