If you were recently approved for The Platinum Card® from American Express, congratulations are certainly in order. But so is a reminder of the incredible slew of perks and card benefits now available to you, including everything from 5x points on everything from airfare and hotels booked through American Express Travel, up to $200 in annual Uber credits and more.
In this post, we’ll walk through the myriad ways you can quickly start to take advantage of the Amex Platinum and how to squeeze every bit of value out of it that you can, in spite of the hefty $550 annual fee that we’ll argue the benefits easily outweigh.
