Topic Wiki


The main benefit you get is lounge access, a steal for $100 USD P.A - I bought a year off superultimate and I have enjoyed using it ever since.

Benefits
American Express Centurion Lounge Benefits | Unlimited Entry + 1 Guest
Lufthansa Business Lounge Access or Senator Lounge Access when flying in Business | Unlimited Entry No Guest
Delta SkyClub Access when flying on Delta | Unlimited Entry No Guest
Virgin Australia Business Lounge Access (Even for US cards, Australian ID though) | Unlimited Entry No Guest
Priority Pass Select | Unlimited Entry + 2 Guests for lounge access globally

Risks
You will need to lodge some personal information to the seller, in this case superultimate has been fantastic and would trust him going forward
You will need to submit your SSN BUT to American Express, not to the seller. If you dont have an SSN, a passport will do just fine, even if it isnt US issued (I used my AU passport)

How it is done
Assuming that you meet the requirements for becoming an Authorized User, the seller will send a request to American Express. You will need to call them to finalize the ID verification but apart from that its all taken care of from superultimate. You will receive the card to your home address, or you can have superultimate forward the card internationally through UPS.

After that, you will be given a log in into American Express, feel free to register for Priority Pass and when you receive both cards, its all done.

amex authorized users can have their own login. i checked, it allowed me to link my own loyalty account, potentially letting me transfer p2's mr points.

Newly added auth users dont get access to use MR automatically. Need to give them access which the sellers here wont

The solution to that seems pretty simple: just make a login for the card and don't share the details with the buyer, so he/she won't be able to.  Am I missing something?

I just logged in to my AU's online account. They can't see the points balance and there is no option to go to the membership rewards site....

I believe the system prompts the auth user to create a login during card activation, which requires ssn and dob.

I just logged in to my AU's online account. They can't see the points balance and there is no option to go to the membership rewards site....
ok, i see access needs be turned on under Account Services > Manage Other Users > Manage Rewards Users

in that case, i can offer 3 slots. as i understand, auth user fee cycle is separate from annual fee cycle. if i downgrade/cancel during annual fee renewal, does amex prorate and refund the auth user fee?

Based on recent reports it seems like amex will charge $195 per AU not 3 for $175 which will effectively kill this thread

Holy cow. Instead of $175 for 3 three cards, it will now be $195 per card. Most people here were sharing spots for $125-$150

Now that will have to increase to $250-$275 per spot at the minimum. At that price point I am sure nobody will be interested. RIP to this thread and the deal :/

Anyone have Walmart+ available on an extra Platinum card?

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.
