Amex stopped taking new applications for the Green on July 25, 2026, so this card now matters only to people who already carry it. For them, the case is still reasonable: 3 points per dollar on travel, transit, and dining, no foreign transaction fees, and up to $219 a year in statement credits for a CLEAR Plus membership. The tradeoff is a $150 annual fee against a 1 point per dollar base rate, which means the card earns its keep only if you spend steadily in those three categories and actually use CLEAR. If you are shopping for a new card, look elsewhere: the Wells Fargo Autograph matches the 3x categories with no annual fee, the Chase Sapphire Preferred offers 3x dining and transferable points for $95, and the Amex Gold is the step up if your restaurant and grocery spending is high enough to justify its larger fee.
