- The Platinum Card® from American Express comes with a much higher annual fee ($550) than most credit or charge cards, which can scare off some people.
- However, the card comes with enough perks, rewards, and tangible benefits to far outweigh that annual fee.
- Initially, even as I got into the world of credit card rewards, perks, and benefits, I was turned off by the annual fee — it's a lot to front at the top of each card membership year.
- However, after some back and forth, I finally decided to open the card about a year-and-a-half ago, and in just the first 12 months, I got more than $2,000 worth of value.
- Airport-lounge access, up to $200 in Uber credits annually, a $200 annual airline-fee credit, up to $100 in annual shopping credits, and elite status at three massive hotel brands are just a few of the many benefits the card offers.
- Read on for a full breakdown of the value I've gotten from the Platinum Card.
