From 23 February 2026, the cost of Membership Rewards transfers to AMEX's 8 airline partners will increase by up to 25% (50% for Emirates), with a commensurate cut to earn rates- and even unfulfilled welcome offers!
From 23 February 2026, the AMEX Platinum Charge will run a year-long FCY promo offering 2.2 mpd—still well below rival cards, except for niche spend like donations or school fees.
The AMEX Platinum Credit Card's S$200 Lifestyle Credit is now the Fashion & Dining Credit, and while the quantum is unchanged, the opportunity for extra first year value has been removed.
Existing AMEX cardholders now enjoy 98,250 bonus MR points with a new AMEX Platinum Charge and a min. spend of S$3,000, the best welcome offer in over two years.
From 2026, AMEX Platinum vouchers are issued digitally- and based on calendar year. This gives existing cardholders a bit of a windfall, as they'll have double the vouchers to use!
