Yes, it's hard to get an American Express card because you will need a good or excellent credit score for approval, along with enough income for monthly bill payments. The easiest American Express cards to get are those that require a minimum of good credit for approval, as opposed to excellent credit only. You may also want to target cards that are co-branded with a certain hotel or airline, as well as offers with lower annual fees, if you're concerned about getting approved.
Easiest American Express Cards to Get
Keep in mind that American Express also evaluates each applicant's income and debt obligations to make sure they can afford monthly bill payments on a new line of credit. However, there isn't much information available about Amex's standards in those regards. But you shouldn't expect them to differ too much from other credit card companies' policies.
You should also note that while Amex cards are relatively hard to get, there are several other credit cards that are easy to obtain.
