You need enough income to afford monthly bill payments on the American Express® Green Card. While the terms and conditions of the American Express® Green Card do not disclose a specific minimum income requirement, the higher your income is, the more likely you are to be approved. Your income will also play a big part in determining your credit limit, with higher incomes generally leading to higher limits.
Keep in mind that the income you list on a credit card application doesn’t necessarily have to come from a job. American Express will also consider things like Social Security benefits, unemployment insurance, alimony payments, pension distributions, investment returns and more.
In addition, if you are at least 21 years old, you may include household income on your application. If you are 18-20 years old, you may only list your own income.
