New! $120 Dining Credit
To receive this benefit, Card Members must enroll. Only the Basic Card Member or Authorized Account Manager(s) on a U.S. Consumer Gold Card Account can enroll in the benefit. Traditional Gold, Senior Gold, Classic Gold and Ameriprise Gold Cards are not eligible. Eligible purchases must be charged to a Card Member on the enrolled Card Account for the benefit to apply. Purchases by both the Basic Card Member and Additional Card Members on the eligible Card Account are eligible for statement credits. However, each Card Account is eligible for up to a $10 statement credit per month, for a total of $120 per calendar year in statement credits across all Cards on the Account. Participating partners are Grubhub, Seamless, The Cheesecake Factory, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and participating Shake Shack locations. Excludes Shake Shack locations in ballparks, stadiums, airports and racetracks. Not valid on gift cards or merchandise purchases. Only valid for transactions completed in the United States of America, and US Territories. Please allow 2-4 weeks after an eligible purchase is charged to your Card Account for statement credit(s) to be posted to the Account. Please call the number on the back of the Card if statement credits have not posted after 4 weeks from the date of purchase. American Express relies on the merchant to process transactions within the same calendar month that you made the purchase in order to apply the $10 monthly statement credit in the month that it was intended. For example, if you make an eligible purchase on the last day of the month, but the merchant doesn’t process that transaction until the next day, then the statement credit would be applied in the following month. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as eligible for the benefit, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not be eligible if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. To be eligible for this benefit, Card Account(s) must not be canceled and not past due at the time of statement credit fulfillment. If a charge for an eligible purchase is included in a Pay Over Time balance on your Card Account, the statement credit associated with that charge may not be applied to that Pay Over Time balance. Instead, the statement credit may be applied to your Pay In Full balance. For additional information, call the number on the back of your Card.
Good find....I go to Shake Shack here and there....so this will serve me well.
If the rewards structure the OP posted about is real, then it hasn't gone into effect yet since AMEX's website does not reflect this change and when you login and explore your card's rewards structure, the old one is still in place. The only change I have seen, as of now, is the dining credit.
I really hope this new structure is legit, because the PRG is about to quickly make my CSP take some time off
I can't post my screenshots on my phone, but someone at Flyertalk has the screenshots too.
<Mod note: Sorry, we can't put links to that site here. --UB>
It must be slowly rolling out across accounts!! I am really excited about this.

It should be permanent and for everyone. Just announced today. I see it under my benefits on Amex.
Can you post where you see it in benefits. I'm certainly searching for any update on the site and I see nothing at the moment?
That's a nice perk I'm just hoping the Business PRG will be included
I'd take 4x MRs on dining over 3x URs.
Not by much, though...and I had PRG from 2014-2016, so no bonus. No 4x at places at didn't take Amex or that didn't code as restaurants (some delivery services). No 3x "food as travel" Uber Eats quirk like on CSR.
Note that GrubHub and Seamless are two websites run by the same company. As far as I can tell, they have exactly the same participating restaurants with exactly the same prices and fees.

Just spoke with a CSR about something else but asked several questions. I asked about metal cards. He confirmed that they are coming by the end of the year. Asked about changes to PRG MR structure and he said that it hasn't been completely rolled out yet but he sounded really excited and said that there were "huge changes coming"
Probably everyone has been cancelling after a year.
