American Express recently launched two new credits cards – the Amex EveryDay Credit Card and the Amex EveryDay Preferred Credit Card.  These credit cards are a great addition for anyone that collects (or plans to start collecting) Membership Rewards®  points.  Both cards earn full Membership Rewards points, meaning the points earned can be directly transferred to its many partner loyalty programs.  One of the cards is also the first no-annual fee credit card offered by American Express that earns full Membership Rewards points.
