There are rumors that Amex would be updating or releasing a new Amex Zync card on Oct 31 or perhaps later this year, is this just a rumor? can't seem to find any more info on google. If Amex did release the new Zync this year i wonder if the annual fee would be increased from previous years .
That's actually the most specific date I've heard in the rumor mill. The only rumor I've heard is that it's coming back. Everything is still speculative and there's lots of FOAF type sourcing to the info.
Rumor.
It's fair to say that Amex is assuredly looking at other options for trying to reach the younger generations. The average customer age for Amex is probably increasing near linearly with the calendar, and they have to widen their demographic reach.
Zync was an attempt along those lines, it wouldn't suprise me at all if they release a similar or even a revamped Zync along the same lines but marketed and positioned slightly differently. Personally I'd be fine if they went back to the old one hah, still my favorite card and in my current holding pattern I'm really missing the rewards categories it had.
I definitely miss the perks, and have been holding off on apping for a replacement from Amex (and also a little worried about rejection...).
I hope they bring the card back!
I may get one if they do, I was looking at getting a charge card at some point anyway and than could PC the Zync to a Gold or Platinum later. Hope it comes back. Don't want the AF of the gold or plat at the moment.

+1. Me too! Someone should start a social media campaign.
Bring back the Zync! Bring back the Zync!
