American Express Credit Cards

The original creators of the travelers check and traveler check cards in 1891, American Express has continued to pave the way for better credit card services for their customers. Offered through invitation only, the Platinum and Gold American Express credit cards involved high annual fees while allowing high end limits. The Optima card was the first card that allowed the carry over of monthly balances and American Express continued its tradition of firsts with the introduction of the grace period. American Express remains a competitive alternative to Visa and MasterCard credit giants by offering cards like the JetBlue, Starwood Preferred Guest Card, Blue and Blue Cash Rebate Card.
