How do I get the Amex Rose Gold card?

To get the Amex Rose Gold card, you have to apply for the American Express® Gold Card and request a Rose Gold version. If you are already an Amex Gold cardholder, you just have to request a new card be sent to you in the Rose Gold shade. Requesting the color is quick and easy — simply call the number on the back of your card to get connected with a customer service representative and let them know you would like to exchange your existing Amex Gold card for the Rose Gold version. Alternatively, use the online chat function from your online account.

No matter what shade you choose, you can get all of the Amex Gold card’s incredible benefits, from high earning rates to a huge initial bonus of 60,000 points once you spend $4,000 in the first 6 months. You also receive annual Uber Cash benefits, as well as monthly statement credits when you dine at certain restaurants. The Amex Gold card also offers extensive ongoing rewards: 4 points per $1 at U.S. supermarkets (up to $25,000 spent per year), 4 points per $1 at restaurants worldwide (plus takeout and delivery in the U.S.), 3 points per $1 on flights booked directly with airlines or on amextravel.com, and 1 point per $1 on all other purchases.

All of those excellent rewards do come at the cost of a $250 annual fee, so it’s important to weigh the worth of those rewards against the cost of the card. The Amex Gold card requires good credit or better (a credit score of 700+) for good odds of approval. You can also check for pre-qualification online. Keep in mind that pre-qualification indicates that you have good odds of approval, but it does not guarantee it.
