An Amex Platinum authorized user can get many of the same perks as the main cardholder, including exclusive access to The American Express Global Lounge Collection and The Hotel Collection.

Yes, in 2026, additional American Express Platinum cardholders (specifically those on a "Platinum" tier secondary card, not a "Gold" or "Companion" card) generally receive the same Global Lounge Collection benefits as the primary member. This includes unlimited access to The Centurion Lounges, Priority Pass Select (enrollment required), and Delta Sky Clubs when flying Delta. For U.S. consumer cards, as of 2026, the primary account must typically meet a significant annual spend threshold (often $75,000) to earn complimentary guest passes for Centurion lounges; otherwise, additional cardholders must pay a per-visit fee for their own guests. However, the additional Platinum cardholders themselves can enter these lounges freely by presenting their card. Note that "Supplementary Gold" cards often issued on Platinum accounts usually do not include these lounge benefits.
