Hi guys, plan to buy something from USA using AMEX 2 Card, is it is the cash back 5% sufficient to cover the exchange rate? Please advise.

I tried to compare USD : MYR rate provided by Amex (against visa and master), but Amex do not publish the exchange rate publicly like visa & master.

If u fall within the 5% weekend cash back when using AMEX, it should more than enough to cover the exchange rate and charges imposed by bank.

Amex : + 2.5 to 3%
Visa/MasterCard: + 2 to 2.5%

Spend after 8pm Saturday Malaysia Time (GMT+8), the transaction date (local time in US,  not Malaysia time) must be Sat/Sun to get the 5% rebate (+5 TP worth 1%).

P/S avoid using the Amex CC on Black Friday.
