Does Amex Platinum include CLEAR?
Yes — the Amex Platinum gives up to $219/year in statement credits for CLEAR Plus, which fully covers a CLEAR Plus membership.
How it works
The Platinum card reimburses up to $219 per calendar year in CLEAR Plus membership fees as a statement credit (increased from $209 on July 1, 2026).
CLEAR Plus is the airport (and stadium) identity-verification lane that lets you skip to the front of the security document-check line.
Enrollment is required, and you must charge the CLEAR Plus membership to your Platinum card to get the credit.
What it's worth
CLEAR Plus costs $219/year, so the credit fully covers it — effectively a free membership for Platinum holders who travel.
How to claim it
- 1Sign up for (or renew) CLEAR Plus and pay with your Amex Platinum card.
- 2Make sure your card is enrolled for the benefit in your Amex account.
- 3The statement credit posts automatically, up to $219 per calendar year.
Good to know: It only covers CLEAR Plus — not TSA PreCheck or Global Entry (the Platinum has a separate credit for those). You must pay with the Platinum card for the credit to apply.
