The American Express® Gold Card reports to the credit bureaus monthly, within days after the end of a cardholder’s monthly billing period. The Amex Gold card reports the card’s credit limit, account balance, payment history, and more to all three of the major credit bureaus: TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian. American Express may use a specific credit bureau more than another, depending on the applicant’s home state, and other factors.
