Blue Cash Preferred Card from American Express overview<\/h2>\n

The Blue Cash Preferred\u00ae Card from American Express<\/a><\/span> is a lucrative cash-back card for several spending categories. If cash back is up your alley \u2014 and select U.S. streaming, U.S. supermarkets (up to $6,000 per year), transit and U.S. gas station categories align with your spending habits \u2014 then you can’t go wrong with the Blue Cash Preferred. Card Rating*: \u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/strong><\/p>\n

*Card rating<\/a> is based on the opinion of TPG’s editors and is not influenced by the card issuer.<\/em><\/h6>\n
\n

There are pros and cons to picking a cash-back card<\/a> over a travel rewards card<\/a>. However, the Blue Cash Preferred could be great for infrequent travelers and those looking to spend their rewards in other ways.<\/p>\n

To successfully apply for this card, TPG recommends having a credit score<\/a> of at least 670 \u2014 and preferably above 700. It has an introductory $0 annual fee for the first year, then a $95 annual fee after that (see rates and fees<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Let’s look at this card’s ins and outs to help you decide if it’s right for you.<\/p>\n
