Answer Question

Here’s the Amex Green card credit score requirement and more:

Credit score required: Good (700+).

Other factors: Annual income, employment status, monthly rent/mortgage payment, existing debt and more.

Age requirement: At least 18 years old (must have a verifiable source of income).

Residency/identification requirement: A U.S. mailing address (no P.O. boxes) and a Social Security number, Individual Taxpayer Identification Number or passport.

Even if you meet the Amex Green card credit score requirement, you should be aware that this card is a hybrid card before you apply. That means you’re usually required to pay the entire balance in full each billing period. There is a feature called “Pay Over Time” where cardholders can carry a balance on individual eligible charges. However, these purchases are subject to approval by Amex. And the account will have a set “Pay Over Time” limit that cannot be exceeded. All charges not included in the Pay Over Time balance will also require to be paid in full every month. If you usually carry a balance every month, you might want to consider other Amex cards.

Just enter your name, address, annual income, and the last 4 digits of your Social Security number, and you’ll see all the Amex cards with the highest approval odds. If you see the Amex Green card, that means you’ll have a very good chance of getting approved. Pre-qualification isn’t a guarantee of approval, as you will still have to apply. Bear in mind, though, that there is still a chance your application could be denied.

What's the easiest American Express card to get?

People drive me nuts with these answers, critical thinking skills are missing. Even if the cards are “hard” to get it still has levels. I read the question not as “is it easy to get an Amex” but “which card has the lowest requirements?” Lowest requirements doesn’t mean 500 credit score it simply means the lowest for that company which could be 750, it’s not a low number but is the LOWEST REQUIREMENT. From reading the answers NONE of you answered the question just went on your personal rant. So for clarity I will re-ask the question for the OP.… read full answer
