One good example: https://www.fidelity.com/cash-management/american-express-cards
I would be very hesitant about using this card in front of business partners purely just to avoid weird looks from them. I can easily get 3CCP out of each UR, so even a 1UR per dollar purchase on my CSP will still net me more value than a 2% cashback card in general. Otherwise, the 2% cashback for everything is a nice touch.
LOL... now that's funny enharu. I've used this one many a times and I've yet to see anyone's face go aghast just from its pure looks - even with business clients. But I guess it all depends on the business, the clients and location...
I agree! I use the card all the time, no reaction from anyone. It's merely a strange color, not a particularly offensive design. Now if, as enharu states, ou can get better rewards elsewhere, then certainly no need to consider. But appearance comes absolutely nowhere in my selection criteria. And if people are put off by the appearance of my card, then they probably would be put off by many other aspects of me (the poisonous green drool that drips from my mouth for example, same color as the card come to think of it!)

Sadly, I can say yes. The Fidelity Amex just makes my eyes bleed. It's sad that I am being so vain over how a cc looks.
LOL... really? Ok, let's see...
I am three years late to this topic/question. And without a doubt I still covet the Continental One Pass Master Card... . Its simplistic beauty is second to none, in my opinion..United has still, so far, never captured the Beauty of this Card Design... So sad to see it and its Founding Company, Continental Airlines, go away..Cheers
