Spend for the future

Your points can be used to pay for almost any item on your Card Statement – including a beautiful first edition of your favourite book – and they never expire, so you can save them up and spend them when the time is right.
What’s more, The Platinum Card also offers over 30 travel and lifestyle benefits, including airport lounge access, worldwide travel insurance, as well as a 24/7 Concierge service that can book you dinner out or an action-packed holiday away where you can read and relax.
