It does if you applied before 12/01.
Although as of now its only through 12/12...im thinking they will make it a permanent feature of the card...if they dont, im sure alot of people will cancel as it doesnt have any major perks
When they called priority access, before this added feature, there was already a stampede of people. They might as well do away with the group numbers as after EXP, PLT, and priority access board, there is probably no one left to board.
