Good morning everyone. A few months ago, I wrote American Express Business Platinum Card Changes: $179 CLEAR Credit & Centurion Lounge Guest Access Policy when AMEX introduced the $179 CLEAR Credit on their personal and business Platinum Cards. Last month, I wrote My CLEAR Experience: Reactivating Membership, Adding Family Member, & Airport Biometric Process where I explained the issues regarding reactivating my old/dormant CLEAR membership and my wife’s experience with the airport biometric process (it was pretty easy at the Seattle airport). CLEAR gave me a 2 month trial period in order to get our CLEAR accounts set up and my charge finally went through last week. I wanted to document the process and show how quickly the CLEAR credit posted on my American Express Business Platinum Card. The $179 CLEAR Credit shows up in the benefits section of your personal or business Platinum Card and does not require activation. The benefit says that the statement credit will appear 2-4 weeks after your CLEAR membership is charged to your card.
