 <li>'''You need to be careful or you could lose your Membership Rewards points when you cancel your card'''. To keep your points, you need to hold onto at least one card that earns Membership Rewards points. If you don't have one, you either need to hold onto the card, downgrade it to the Business Green Card, open up a new Membership Rewards card (like the no-annual-fee Business Blue Plus Card), or transfer all your points to your favorite airline program. Before cancelling, make sure to check that the card you're cancelling is linked to the same Membership Rewards account as your other cards (as it should be).</li>
