Where is my Amex? Here’s How to track when your Amex card will be delivered
I just added the American Express Business Gold to my wallet. You can read my full review here, but I’ve been flirting with adding it to my wallet for quite some time because of its 4x bonus category feature. If you’re unfamiliar, there is a list of qualifying categories ( dining and gas are two of them ) and whichever two you spend most on during the month, you’ll receive 4x points on those categories. The 4x is capped at $150k in a calendar year and presents and great way to capitalize on the categories where you spend most. I have a few large expenses that need to be paid and I’m holding off until I receive the physical card. I was wondering…when will my new Amex card arrive? Luckily…it’s getting here very soon. Here’s how I’m keeping track of its progress.
After you log in go to Account Services
The image below is after clicking it, but you’ll see the options on the top row after you log in.
Under your name and member since, you’ll find a “Track Card” notification
Mine has been delayed. I’m guessing this has to do with the massive winter storm rolling across the States.
After clicking “Track Card” You’ll see a break down of your card with Tracking Number
If you want to know more exact details you’d just go to FedEx and enter your Tracking Number to search
