I don't think you can yet because it's phone app only atm

Here is the online app
https://www262.americanexpress.com/dapply/web/ccsg/apply/api/prospect/morgan-stanley-platinum-card/MS/1000/2

They make you confirm (by checking a box) that you have a Morgan Stanley brokerage account

Then why the (s) at the end of "Additional Card":

"Obtain Additional Card(s) for no additional fee."

From the t&c's on the application page:
"Obtain one (1) Additional Card for no additional fee. Then, a total annual fee of $175 for up to (3) Additional Cards, after the first one. Then, each Additional Card can be obtained for an annual fee of $175, after the first (4)."

Thanks for clarifying.

Does this Plat get the $200 airline credit as well?

Yes
on the application page under "review card benefits" it confirms the $200 airline credit

Can anyone confirm if it will work without having a MS account?
I would like to do a 3bm for the regular Plat, MB Plat, and MS Plat.

I'm wondering the same thing. I'm also wondering if there is a painfree way to open an account online? It seems from the website that you can only open a MS account if you actually meet with someone from a branch
Why don't you do a 3BM with the MB/reg/business plat?

ae123 · « **Reply #28 on:** April 11, 2012, 08:59:21 PM »

If I'm not mistaken, the spending requirement for the Business Platinum is very high. That's why I preferred the regular, MB, and MS.
Am I wrong? Do you have the link to the business card?
Thanks.

Good point, I actually have a targeted business plat offer requiring 5k spend. Doable, but a hassle

ae123 · « **Reply #30 on:** April 11, 2012, 09:05:20 PM »

Yes. Especially since it has to be spent within 60 days in order to get the full annual fee refunded.

Why not just open a Morgan Stanley account and put $500 in there and then apply for the MS plat

It's not so simple. It cannot be done online, there is a minimum amount needed to open (still trying to figure it out), and there is a maintenance fee of $250 if less than $25,000 invested.
They're emailing me an application now, so i'll post when I have more details

I'd be willing to stick 25k in a Morgan account for a month or two to get the MS Plat and get the MR points + Airline Credit
