When the application links for the American Express EveryDay & EveryDay Preferred went live earlier this week, I couldn’t help but apply.
I went for the Preferred version because it earns at a better rate and we do spend a fair amount in its main bonus category – groceries. Not to mention if we complete 30 transactions each billing cycle, we’ll earn 50% more Membership Rewards points!
So without further adieu, here’s the brand new EveryDay Preferred credit card!

American Express EveryDay Preferred
It’s pretty cheesy looking; the HUGE reflective square front and center is actually a bit annoying. It basically looks like a black and white version of the “Blue” line of Amex credit cards.
Note, again, it does come with an EMV chip, which is actually smaller than Chase’s EMV chips. Currently, it’s only Chip-and-Signature.
And here’s how things will look in your account at americanexpress.com:

There’s also a handy transaction tracker which will be VERY useful to ensure I complete 30 transactions per billing cycle.

You can click into the transaction tracker for a more detailed look at your eligible transactions. Currently, I don’t have any.

Just thought I’d give anyone interested a sneak peak of the EveryDay Preferred card. The regular EveryDay card will like look exactly the same, both the physical card and the interface on the Amex website.
Has anyone else already gotten their EveryDay card?
You’ll have to let us know if you get the sign up bonus, will be interesting to see considering the wording of the offer.
I got it last week actually. I don’t recall ever get to an Amex bonus before my statement closing either!
Yeah, I was just giving you a prod to keep us updated is all.
