The Platinum Card® from American Express Global Entry/TSA PreCheck benefit: Receive one statement credit every four years after you apply for Global Entry ($100) or every four-and-a-half years after you apply for TSA PreCheck ($85) and pay for it with your card (enrollment required, terms apply).

Yes, the American Express Platinum Card includes a statement credit of up to $120 (as of the 2026 fee schedule) to cover the application fee for either TSA PreCheck or Global Entry. Since Global Entry automatically includes TSA PreCheck and covers international re-entry, it is widely considered the better value for cardholders. To utilize this benefit, you simply use your Platinum card to pay the application fee on the official government website, and American Express will automatically reimburse the amount as a credit on your statement within a few weeks. This benefit is available once every four years for Global Entry or every 4.5 years for TSA PreCheck, aligning with the renewal cycles of these programs. It is a "per-card" benefit, meaning if you have "Additional Card Members" (authorized users), they do not get their own separate credit; the credit is shared across the account. For frequent travelers, this perk—combined with the card's extensive lounge access—makes the Amex Platinum one of the most powerful tools for minimizing airport stress and bypassing long security lines.
