The Business Platinum Card® from American Express might come with a high annual fee, but it also has a whole lot of credit card perks.
Despite the annual price tag of $695 (see rates and fees ), the Amex Business Platinum card has plenty to offer — but many of the card’s best benefits aren’t automatic; you’ll have to enroll your card to get them. Here’s a quick look at what those perks are and how to register for them.
Remember, the card is also currently offering a lucrative introductory bonus of 150,000 Membership Rewards points after you spend $20,000 on eligible purchases in the first three months of card membership. According to TPG’s latest valuations , that’s worth a whopping $3,000.
Here’s what else to know about the Amex Business Platinum.

In addition, several perks even have a dedicated tracker within your Amex account. This is helpful to determine how much of a perk you have left remaining. For instance, in the screenshot above, this cardholder still has $200 left of their airline fee credit. (Don’t forget to register first.)
