About this card
The Credit One Bank Premier American Express Card receives an overall rating of 1.8 out of 5.0. This rating reflects a below-average value proposition due to its high APR, limited rewards, and potential annual fee for users with average credit. While the card offers basic cashback rewards and a few additional features such as retail protection and access to Amex Offers, these are overshadowed by its drawbacks. The high APR of 29.74% makes it a costly option for carrying a balance, and the 1% cashback rate is uncompetitive compared to other cards in the fair to good credit tier. The card’s strengths include its availability to those with fair credit and the potential for no annual fee for excellent credit. However, its weaknesses, such as the high APR, low rewards rate, and lack of a sign-up bonus, significantly outweigh its benefits. The card is best suited for individuals who may struggle to get approved for other cards and need to build or rebuild their credit, but it is not recommended for those seeking to maximize rewards or minimize interest charges.
