The MGM Rewards Mastercard (FNBO) leads to exactly one status: MGM Rewards Gold, and you get there through spend alone, no match request involved.
Gold requires 75,000 Tier Credits in a calendar year. The card earns 1 Tier Credit per dollar on everyday purchases and 3 Tier Credits per dollar at MGM Rewards Destinations, so you're looking at $75,000 in everyday spend, or $25,000 spent directly at MGM properties, within that same calendar year. There's no cap mentioned on how many Tier Credits the card can earn, so it's a straight accumulation race against the calendar-year deadline rather than a one-time spend trigger — every dollar counts toward the total, and MGM spend counts three times as fast as spend anywhere else.
