Update: Approved for PlentiSM Credit Card from Amex

CardsLifeLine — Wed, 06 May 2015 22:47:30 GMT

Hello All,

Today Amex launch new card product -

PlentiSM Credit Card from Amex.

Boost the Power of Plenti

Earn points in addition to what you can earn as part of the PlentiSM program – an innovative rewards program which lets you earn points at one place and use them at another.

Welcome bouns is not at all encouraging and not sure what approval stats will be ... keep you all posted and very good luck.

Update : my DW got approved for this card with $9.5 CL. This card seems to have greater potential and it might be bit confusing with rewards and points at start, however as you go it will be loads of excitement the way you earn points. Hope soon many other retailers join this network to make this deal sweet.

Good luck guys ... We cancelled our Hilton card to get it approved. We already have CITI Hilton card which got approved recently.

I'm not even sure what Plenti points are or familiar with Plenti but this card doesn't seem at all appealing. Maybe I'm missing something...

Is this card actually issued by Centurion Bank or just on the Amex network?

Yeah, the only thing I see that it has going for it, is that I think it looks cool.

Just think, if they made this card out of metal, just 2 grams heavier than the Ritz, AT LEAST 90% of MyFicans would app for it!

Thanks for the info! I'll wait and see what others are saying about it. Or when someone gets one.

It's basically a Loyalty Program with tie-ins with other partners, I dunno about this product at this stage, it is managed by AMEX.

We can have a total of 4 Amex cards? I'm already at 2.

So I guess it all depends on the special offers. The value proposition (earn points at one place and use at another) is potentially just another example of restricted cashback (With say double cash, I too can earn rewards at Macy's and use them at Rite Aid). A lot of the examples are 1 point per $

Hopefully this isn't intended to pick up the slack from the Costco departure. It looks like an interesting card, I need to read up on it.

To the earlier post about max number of Amex cards; you can have four revolvers and all of the charge cards.

The card looks interesting. It might not be another BBVA Compass. It might not be an easy approval.

Why is it interesting? I don't see the value.

I have to agree...

I really don't see a value to this card.. It only applies to certain loyalty partners correct? I think Amex already has alot better cards, maybe I am missing something this early AM morning? If I am, please explain the value. 1 point for all purchases for each dollar?

From Benefit Terms: "You must finish your enrollment in the Plenti rewards program before you apply for the Plenti Credit Card. If you are not fully enrolled or need to complete your enrollment, you will be directed to Plenti.com before proceeding with your Credit Card application. You do not have to apply for the Plenti Credit Card in order to become a member of the Plenti rewards program."

To the person applying, did it send you off to do that first?

So far no appeal, but if you can enroll other cards and get something on top of normal benefits...will check out.
