Select American Express cardmembers: Your card’s up to $189 statement credit for Clear Plus has just increased by $10.
A small number of Amex cards have just had their Clear Plus statement credit increased to up to $199, effective Thursday. This means you’ll be able to continue to enjoy Clear Plus membership at no additional cost, even as a new bundle with TSA PreCheck has launched at that price.
Here’s what to know and how this upped perk works.
Increased Clear Plus credit for select Amex cards
If you have The Platinum Card® from American Express, The Business Platinum Card® from American Express, the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card, the American Express® Green Card, the American Express Corporate Platinum Card® or the Centurion Card from American Express, you’ll now enjoy an increased $199 statement credit for Clear Plus membership.
