The top tier American Express Platinum card has been in my wallet for a few years now and starting next month; we’ll see a brand new benefit added to the Card.
In this post:
Complimentary Fashion Credit with NET-A-PORTER and MR PORTER
If you’re a sucker for high-end fashion, you will be very familiar with the above names. Starting from February 1 2021, Platinum card members will be able to get a $75 statement credit back to their Card on purchases across both Net-A-Porter and Mr Porter websites. Members will be able to get 2 credit each year they hold their Platinum card for a total of $150.
To get the benefit, members will need to save the offer to their Card before 25/06/2021. If you enrol before this date you will automatically be enrolled for the next credit period ending Dec 2021.
Shangri-La Golden Circle Jade is being removed
From March 31, 2021, Shangri-La Golden Circle elite status (Jade) will be removed as a benefit for Platinum Card members. The Jade tier comes with a few nice benefits such as complimentary breakfast, upgrades and more at Shangri-La hotels and resorts worldwide. If you are currently an American Express Platinum members, you have until the end of March to redeem your Shangri-La Jade status which will be valid for 1 year from activation.
As part of your American Express Platinum card, you’re still entitled to the following elite status: Hilton Honors Gold Status, Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite Status and Radisson Rewards Gold.
