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.

I am interested in getting added as an additional card holder. If anybody is interested please PM me with offer. Also please let me know how long you plan to keep your card. Limit set to zero is fine as I am only looking for lounge access.

Thanks,

Dracs

it is now 6 spots available. can do 100 each-for the first 4 people who sign up (*comes with a 50$ airline reimbursement) and 50$ for the last 2
must have all 6 to do it.
* this means that if you want a gc, i will buy one for you, if you want to swipe the card for luggage etc. i will give you my card to spend it- meaning i end up with the reimbursement, you end up spending 50$ for no charge.
PM me if interested. thanks

why would u charge more for the first 4 than the last 2? I would think you should give the first 2 cheaper as an incentive for them to sign up, but contingent on you getting all 6

Like I said, might.
Can you elaborate on the "might"?

Might what? What might they do if they see that i added an AU (got some perks) and then cancelled the AU?
Do you know first hand of this happening to someone?

I never got charged the AU fee in the first place (I added 3 AUs), and upon cancellation it wasn't even mentioned. YMMV

Did you add them when you applied, later online, or on the phone?

Later, over the phone after I was approved.. This was before SSN was required, I made up the dates of birth.

This thread is way too long: just to clarify, the only benefit would be lounge access?

Plus all the new benefits that they just came out with- and if the main card holder trusts you and keeps your card active you also get the protections when you purchase items using the card.

Or the main cardholder can just order it for you before he sends you the card. So this is confirmed? AUs get get PP and GE too?

Additional cardholders do get Global Entry.
