With benefits like hotel points and airport lounge access, American Express Platinum Card® It is one of TPG’s most popular cards among frequent travelers.

That’s not all, however: In addition to travel benefits, the card also offers additional statement points, increasing its value and offsetting the $895 annual fee (see Rates and Fees). For example, you can get up to $100 in Saks Fifth Avenue statement credit each calendar year, with up to $50 in the first half from January through June and $50 in the second half of the year.

However, this “use it or lose it” credit resets twice a year – meaning December is your last chance to use the credit in the second half of the year (if you haven’t already).
