2024.7 Update: The new card Robinhood Gold Card real 10K gold version is 36g in weight! This is the heaviest ever credit card. However, this real 10K gold version is a limited time edition, and you have to refer 10 friends to get it, which is very difficult.
2022.11 Update: The new card US Bank Shopper is 14g in weight.
2022.7 Update: The new card Wells Fargo Autograph is 11g in weight.
Most credit cards are made of plastic of approximately 5 grams (g) of plastic, but some are made of metal. Not all metal cards have the same weight, which begs the question… which card is heaviest?
