    In this video we look at every co-branded Amex platinum available on the US credit card market and ask the question, which is the best? These versions vary from easy to get to almost as hard as the Amex Black Card also known as Amex Centurion.

    Having multiple platinum’s is the ultimate flex.

      It can be the ultimate flex assuming you don’t get an invite for the Centurion.

    Question if you have the vanilla card and the charles Schwab card, that mean all the benefits are double? Like instead of receiving 15$ monthly for Uber you will receive 30$ ? Or the 200 flights credit, you will receive 400 credit? Or is only the bonus that you can get again ?

      It would be nice to switch between different versions of the Platinum. Unfortunately, you have to apply for the Schwab separately. On the flipside, a separate application means a new bonus (assuming you haven’t received it before).

    The point value on Charles Schwab it’s the same as regular Amex, it’s still worth it?

    • @TheCreditShifu
      @TheCreditShifu  Pƙed rokem

      No, it is 1.1 cents per point when redeemed for cash back. On regular, points can only be redeemed for a statement credit at 0.6 cents per point. So lower value and not true cash back
