- You can earn Membership Rewards points (“points”) for eligible consumer purchases at American Express retail merchants as follows: 2 points for every $1 at or for restaurants, quick service restaurants, coffee shops, drinking establishments, and delivery of food in Canada as a primary business, but not including groceries; and 2 points for every $1 for travel services or travel bookings including air, water, rail and road transport, lodging and tour operator sales, but not including local and commuter transportation. Purchases at merchants where these categories are not their primary business such as general merchandise retailers do not qualify. Merchants are typically assigned codes and categorized based on what they sell. Earn rate of 1 point for every $1 applies when the merchant code is not in an eligible category, using a payment account or service of a third party, a card reader attached to a mobile phone or online retailer that sells goods of other merchants or the merchant category is otherwise not identified. Provided your account is in good standing, points can be earned on eligible purchases less returns and other credits. Interest charges, annual fees, other fees and cash equivalent transactions are not purchases and do not qualify for Membership Rewards points.
- Account must be in good standing. An additional card is a Supplementary Card. Each Supplementary Platinum Card $250 annually. The first two Supplementary Gold Reward Cards $0 annually. Any additional Supplementary Gold Cards $50 annually. Supplementary Cardmembers must be at least 13 years old. Maximum of 9 Supplementary Cards per account.
