AMEX revolver equivalent to Green?

Is there a revolver that has the same benefits as the Green? 1MR point / dollar.

I don't have nor quite understand the Membership Rewards system. Are there different types of MR? (I think I've heard of MRE???). Can someone explain this or compare it to Ultimate Rewards?

The Amex blue, and Mercedes revolvers earn MR points if I am not wrong.

Re: AMEX revolver equivalent to Green?

with your 2 very nice Amex cards, why a green? or just a general type question?

and MR Express are not worth as much but not sure the exact break down.

Re: AMEX revolver equivalent to Green?

Was looking for a friend. He's had the green for many years and claimed he only has 150,000 points. He doesn't want to pay more for PRG so I was checking to see if any revolvers earned equal points with no AF or more points with an annual fee of $95 or less. He only wants another card that wouldn't require the loss of his points balance.

The Mercedes Card looks to be the best option even though he wouldn't have much need for the Mercedes gift certificates. Thanks enharu! And I think the blue only earns MRE which apparently can't be transferred to partners.....if I'm understanding the program right.

Blue... regular blue... what is he saving these points for though... why not use the points and move into a better reward program?
