The Standard American Yellow Card (SAYC) is a set of partnership agreements summarized in a [[convention card]] created by the [[American Contract Bridge League]] (ACBL) to be used as the required bidding system in specified events or as a base for a casual or online partnerships. Some of the specific agreements in Standard American Yellow Card (SAYC) that elaborate on or depart from more current Standard American bidding are:
* A 2{{Clubs}} response to a 1NT opening is specified as the "non-forcing" version of the [[Stayman convention]].
* A 2{{Spades}} response to a 1NT is a relay to the minors when responder holds a long (at least six card length) minor suit and a weak hand; opener bids 3{{Clubs}} and responder either passes or corrects to 3{{Diamonds}} which opener is expected to pass.
* Straight [[Blackwood convention|Blackwood]] is used and not the [[Blackwood convention#Roman Key Card Blackwood (RKCB)|Roman Key Card Blackwood]] or other variation.
* In response to a 2{{Clubs}} opening, the 2{{Diamonds}} response is the "waiting" version of that response.
* In response to a weak-two opening, RONF ("Raise Only Non-Force") is used.
* The [[Jacoby 2NT]] is used to show a game-forcing raise of a major suit with four-card support.
* [[Negative double]]s are used through the level of 2{{Spades}}.
* [[Fourth suit forcing]] is used.
* [[Michaels cuebid]] and [[Unusual notrump]] are used.
* Conventions are specified as being "off" in response to a 1NT overcall, except that 2{{Clubs}} is still Stayman.
