American Express has launched a limited time offer on The Platinum Card,
offering boosted Membership Rewards points and a £200 travel credit.
Until 13 June 2023, new Platinum Cardmembers will be able to earn up to
60,000 Membership Rewards points, double the usual 30,000 points, when they sign
up for the Card and spend £6,000 in their first six months. Cardmembers will
also earn a bonus £200 travel credit to spend with Amex Travel Online.
Cardmembers can use Membership Rewards points to shop online with a host
of high street retailers. For example, 60,000 points could get Cardmembers up
to £300 of gift vouchers to spend at popular retailers including Airbnb and
Currys. A full list can be seen here.
New Platinum Cardmembers that meet the spend requirement will also be
eligible for a £200 Travel Credit to spend with Amex Travel Online to put
towards flights, hotels and car rental at destinations across the world.
Those Cardmembers who are referred by a friend can receive an enhanced
bonus of 65,000 Membership Rewards points plus the £200 travel credit (when
they spend £6,000 in six months), while the friend who refers them will receive
18,000 points, up from the usual 12,000, once they are approved.
