Protections

Notes

Charge card; no preset spending limit. Amex's public Centurion pages are login-only, so everything here comes from 2025-2026 reviews (TPG, OMAAT, Upgraded Points, Doctor of Credit). July 2026: added a $1,000/yr Resy credit ($250 a quarter, enrollment required). Sources disagree on what it replaced: CardStack says the $250-a-quarter Saks Fifth Avenue credit ended June 30, 2026, and Upgraded Points says the $200 airline fee credit was dropped. Neither the Saks nor the airline credit is filed here. The one-time $300 SoulCycle bike credit and the $120 Uber One credit appear only on CardStack, so they are left out. The CLEAR amount comes from a TPG article dated Jan 2025. Protection limits and the rental car coverage type were not confirmed. No foreign transaction fee is widely reported, but I did not see it on an issuer page. Earns only 1x, so it is a poor card for earning points: its value is in status, lounges, concierge and access.
