The Platinum Card® from American Express
Our ratings are determined by the authors and editors on our team. Each individual card feature is compared against all other cards we offer and the total score is an average of those 4 ratings.
☝ Increased Offer
You may be eligible for as high as 175,000 Membership Rewards® Points after you spend $8,000 in eligible purchases on your new Card in your first 6 months of Card Membership. Welcome offers vary and you may not be eligible for an offer. Apply to know if you're approved and find out your exact welcome offer amount - all with no credit score impact. If you're approved and choose to accept the Card, your score may be impacted.
It may take up to 24 hours to get the bonus miles which are being offered by Lifemiles rather than Amex.
Exact end time is July 31st, 2025 (11:59 PM GMT-6).
Details of the transfer bonus are here on the Lifemiles website. The bonus is being solely offered by Lifemiles and therefore you will not see the offer on the American Express website.
That said, I do not think almost anyone should be taking advantage of this offer.
Avianca is a Star Alliance partner that does not pass along fuel surcharges, however:
Keep in mind that Avianca recently devalued their program.
Also see: Downsides of the LifeMiles program.
With frequent website issues, terrible customer support, and change/cancel fees of up to $200 a ticket, it’s just not for me.
At a mere 15%, I cannot see a case for the transfer unless you were literally about to make a Lifemiles booking anyway.
Bonus points for spend in the following bonus categories:
Earn 5X Membership Rewards® Points for flights booked directly with airlines or with American Express Travel® up to $500,000 on these purchases per calendar year and earn 5X Membership Rewards® Points on prepaid hotels booked with American Express Travel®.
Only when booked via AmexTravel.com; Otherwise, hotels will earn 1X points per dollar spent
- With over $1,800 in available statement credits, this is a premium travel rewards card with benefits galore. (Terms apply.) Note: Aside from the listed bonus categories, earn 1X on all other eligible purchases.
- The Platinum Card® hasn't shed its travel roots, but it’s expanded beyond to become a lifestyle card with perks like Uber, Saks Fifth Avenue, Equinox, and more. (Enrollment required)
- Amex Membership Rewards® points are extremely flexible, with the option to redeem for travel directly through Amex Travel or transfer to a wide range of airline and hotel partners.
Pros
- A wide array of travel and lifestyle credits and exclusive access that can enhance your life.
- There is no better card for the breadth and variety of airport lounge access worldwide. Plus, the Centurion Lounge network is the largest amongst credit card issuers.
- One of the best cards to earn points on airfare: 5 points per dollar on airfare purchased directly with airlines or through the Amex Travel portal (on up to $500,000 of airfare purchases per calendar year).
Cons
- High annual fee that will require a bit of work to fully maximize.
- Besides airfare and select hotels, it's not the best card to use for other purchases as it only earns 1X on categories outside of flights booked directly with the airlines (5X) or through the Amex Travel portal (5X on up to $500,000 of airfare purchases per calendar year) and 5X points for prepaid hotels booked with Amex Travel.
- Car rental insurance is only secondary, not primary as it is with premium cards from Chase and Capital One.
Instant Transfers as well as solid transfer partners. The value would go up if they had any hotel partners with a fair exchange rate. ANA (an exception to instant transfers), Virgin, Air Canada and Avianca are top airline partners for maximizing your points. They can also transfer to Delta if you wish and while the rates aren't ideal, they can transfer to Marriott and Hilton as well. ANA provides almost unbeatable value for booking a Round the World flight all in Business Class. The stated value also assumes you will take advantage of transfer partners rather than book via their booking portal, where they are only worth between 1 and 1.5 cents. We've also created a Guide to American Express Membership Rewards.

Limited Time Offer: Earn 150,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points after you spend $8,000 in purchases on the Hilton Honors American Express Business Card in your first 6 months of Card Membership. Plus earn an additional 25,000 Hilton Honors Bonus points after you spend an additional $2,000 in purchases on your Card within your first 6 months of Card Membership. Offer Ends 8/13/2025. Terms Apply.
Bonus points for spend in the following bonus categories:
- Very high earn rate for all spend at Hilton properties (12X)
- Comes with complimentary Hilton Gold elite status
- You'll get up to $60 in statement credits each quarter at Hilton family hotels
Pros
- If you stay at Hilton Hotels often, the 12X earn rate on Hilton Hotels will really add up.
- You'll get up to $60 in statement credits each quarter at Hilton family hotels
- Includes mid-tier Hilton Gold status, a way to spend to Diamond status, and you can spend your way to up to two free nights at any Hilton property in the world.
Cons
- The card only earns Hilton Honors points, so you would not be able to redeem them for stays at other hotel chains.
- Earning a specific type of co-branded point, like Hilton Honors points, limits your redemption opportunities and your points balance may be worth less over time if the program changes how points are redeemed.
- The card no longer includes Priority Pass lounge access or the ability to earn Free Night Reward certificates
Since Hilton moved to a variable pricing model, on average you'll be offered roughly a 0.5 cent value per point for average hotels. However, what is nice is that although the pricing is mostly variable, they still cap the "standard" redemption rate on all properties. With the 5th night free on all award stays and resort fees waived on award stays, it's very possible to well exceed this value - even getting 1-2 cents per point - when used wisely. With the addition of SLH as fully integrated into the Hilton fold, we have raised the overall expected average redemption value to 0.6 cents.
