Amex Platinum Welcome Bonus Can Cover Annual Fee Twice Over
The American Express Platinum Card comes with an $895 annual fee, one of the highest on any card. However, its welcome bonus offer can cover this fee twice over and then some.
The bonus offer is worth up to $1,750 in travel rewards, which can be redeemed for travel through the Amex Travel portal or transferred to partners for a higher value.
To qualify for the bonus offer, you need to spend at least $12,000 on eligible purchases within six months of getting the card. Your exact welcome offer amount will vary depending on your creditworthiness and other factors.
