Cardless continues to grow its relationship with American Express and today announces the Simon® American Express® Credit Card. New cardmembers can apply for the Cardless card using their smartphone, receive a virtual card, and begin using it far before receiving the physical card in the mail. Simon is an investor in Cardless alongside Amex Ventures in Cardless’s Series B round which raised $40 million. You can read more about it here
It’s unclear to me at this point if Simon gift cards will be included as an eligible purchase, but that would be a valuable way to get 3% back.
Here are the details of the Simon® American Express® Credit Card.
Welcome offer:
- $150 in statement credits after spending $1,000 in the first 90 days
Earn Rate
- Up to 5% back at participating Simon destination retailers and on select online purchases
- Up to 3% back on all other eligible purchases at Simon Malls, Mills and Premium Outlets
- Up to 1.5% back on all other eligible purchases, worldwide
Overall
Will I be getting this card? Probably not, but I’m more focused on transferrable points. I’m happy to see FinTech companies keep their head above water during an ecomonic drawdown and look forward to the products Cardless continues to develop to push competition in the space.
More competition = more value for customers and innovation in the space.
