As an American Express Platinum Membership Rewards Credit Card Member, you'll earn 2 Membership Rewards points for every $1 dollar you spend.1
The best thing is, there's no expiry or cap to the number of Membership Rewards points you can earn, as long as your account is current and in good standing. When you consider the points earning potential, it makes a lot of sense to use your American Express Card every time you spend.
Additional Cards
An Additional Card can be linked to your Card Account, to be used by family or a friend. It’s a great way to earn more Membership Rewards points, as points earned on transactions on Additional Cards are credited to the primary Card Member’s account.2
Our partners make it easy to use the points to shop, watch live sports or even visit the theatre. With Membership Rewards, you can even use the points to make purchases online at Harvey Norman and Ticketmaster. So whether it’s something for the home or a night out, the points could be the ticket to something you’ll adore.
