Downgrade paths

Product changes usually keep your account age and credit line. Retained-value figures are estimates — confirm specifics with the issuer.

  • Move to American Express Cash Magnet® Card (legacy / closed to new applicants)

    no annual fee

    Unconfirmed pathRetained value not quantified

    UNCONFIRMED — Cash Magnet was historically a valid downgrade destination from BCE within the Amex consumer cash-back family. However, American Express closed Cash Magnet to new applicants on September 25, 2024, and product changes into Cash Magnet are no longer typically available per community sources. Existing Cash Magnet cardmembers can still product change OUT (e.g., to BCE or BCP) per Reddit reports. UNCONFIRMED — historically required call to customer service; current availability unclear given card discontinuation for new applicants
