redsox9547 said:Rewards vs Preferred Rewards is the Membership Options difference. Major difference is if you use your points for frequent flier miles with the Rewards card 1 mile = 2 points, if you have a Preferred Rewards card 1 mile = 1 point.

Rewards Plus is $150 for up to I think 6 cards. This is good if you need more than 2 cards since with Rewards and Preferred Rewards you pay $90 for the first card and $35 for each additional. With Rewards Plus it's $150 for up to 6 cards. They also give you bonuses for your first year (Rewards Plus).

In general, my take is this:
If you want 1:1 ratio for frequent flier miles and don't mind paying a little more go with Preferred Rewards.
If you need more than 2 cards go with Rewards Plus.

But, off the top of my head these are the major differences!

Hope this helps.

i noticed a few days ago they removed the low end green and gold cards. So all new memberships of Gold and Green will be in the Membership Rewards program, NOT the MR Options. Therefore, every point transfers 1:1 to airline miles.
