$199 CLEAR Plus Credit
Your Card benefits can help you experience ease, speed and comfort at the airport. You can receive up to $199 in statement credits per calendar year after you sign up and pay for a CLEAR Plus Membership (subject to auto-renewal) with your eligible American Express Card.*
How It Works
1. Select the "Enroll at CLEAR" button to be taken to Clearme.com to enroll or click here.
2. To receive this benefit, sign up for a CLEAR Plus Membership and use an eligible American Express Card as the form of payment. Existing CLEAR Plus Members can log into their CLEAR account and update payment method to an eligible Card.
3. The Basic Card Member will receive up to $199 in statement credits per calendar year when they or Additional Card Members on their Account pay for a CLEAR Plus Membership with their Card. However, statement credits will only be provided for a total of $199 per calendar year, per Card Account.
4. Statement credits are typically received within a few days, but may take up to 6-8 weeks after a CLEAR Plus Membership fee is charged to the Card Account.
5. In order to fully enroll in CLEAR Plus, you must complete enrollment at an airport CLEAR location with a valid government-issued ID. Once fully enrolled, CLEAR Plus Memberships are automatically renewed each year and the cost of the Membership will be charged to the Card on file.
Travel easier together
As a CLEAR Plus Member, you are eligible to add up to 3 adults to your CLEAR account for a discounted rate per year, per person.

$199 CLEAR Plus Credit for Platinum and Business Platinum
Basic Card Members can earn up to $199 in statement credits per calendar year when the Consumer or Business Platinum Card or Additional Cards on the Account are used to pay for an annual CLEAR® Plus Membership. Enrollment in CLEAR Plus is required and is subject to CLEAR’s terms and conditions. CLEAR Plus Memberships automatically renew each year unless canceled and CLEAR will charge the applicable Membership fee to the Card CLEAR has on file. American Express has no control over the application and/or approval process for CLEAR, and does not have access to any information provided to CLEAR by the Card Member or by CLEAR to the Card Member. American Express has no liability regarding the CLEAR program. If a Card Member's application is not approved by CLEAR, CLEAR will refund the charges. If the statement credit benefit has been applied before CLEAR refunds the charges, that statement credit will be reversed. Purchases by both the Basic Card Member and any Additional Card Members on the Card Account are eligible for statement credits. However, the total amount of statement credits for eligible purchases will not exceed $199 across all Cards on the Account per calendar year. For additional information on the CLEAR program, including information regarding Membership, eligibility, and for a list of participating locations, as well as the full terms and conditions of the program, please go to www.clearme.com. The CLEAR program is subject to change, and American Express has no control over those changes. Please allow up to 6-8 weeks after a qualifying CLEAR transaction is charged to the Card Account for the statement credit to be posted to the Account. American Express relies on accurate transaction data to identify eligible CLEAR Plus purchases. If you do not see a credit for a qualifying purchase on your eligible Card after 8 weeks, please call the number on the back of your Card. Card Members remain responsible for timely payment of all CLEAR charges. American Express relies on the merchant’s processing of transactions to determine the transaction date. The transaction date may differ from the date you made the purchase if, for example, there is a delay in the merchant submitting the transaction to us or if the merchant uses another date as the transaction date. This means that in some cases your purchase may not earn the statement credit benefit for the benefit period in which you made the purchase. For example, if an eligible purchase is made on December 31st but the merchant processes the transaction such that it is identified to American Express as occurring on January 1st, then the statement credit available in the next calendar year will be applied. If you are assigned a new Card number or have a Card number on file with CLEAR that is outdated (for example, if you replace your Card or if your Card has expired), you must update your Card information on file with CLEAR to help ensure that statement credits are received for eligible CLEAR Plus Membership fees. If the Card Account is canceled or past due, it may not qualify to receive a statement credit. If a charge for an eligible purchase is included in a Pay Over Time feature balance on your Card Account, the statement credit associated with that charge may not be applied to that Pay Over Time feature balance. Instead, the statement credit may be applied to your Pay In Full balance. For additional information, call the number on the back of your Card.
$199 CLEAR Plus Credit for Corporate Platinum
The benefit is available to Corporate Platinum Card Members.

American Express has no control over the application and/or approval process for CLEAR, and does not have access to any information provided to CLEAR by the Card Member or by CLEAR to the Card Member. American Express has no liability regarding the CLEAR Plus program. Membership for CLEAR is per person, and a separate application must be completed for each individual. If a Card Member's application is not approved by CLEAR, CLEAR will refund the charges. If the statement credit benefit has been applied before CLEAR refunds the charges, that statement credit will be reversed. For additional information on the CLEAR Plus program, including information regarding the application and/or approval process and for a list of participating airports and stadiums, as well as the full terms and conditions of the programs, please go to www.clearme.com.

Other program applications including, but not limited to, Global Entry, TSA PreCheck® NEXUS, SENTRI, and Privium are not eligible for this statement credit benefit. Please allow up to 6-8 weeks after a qualifying transaction is charged to the eligible Card account for the statement credit to be posted to the Card account.

To be eligible for this benefit, Card account(s) must be active through the time of statement credit fulfilment. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as eligible, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not be eligible if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it.
