What it is

One statement credit every 4 years: $120 for a Global Entry application fee, or up to $85 for TSA PreCheck through an official enrollment provider. The account receives the credit for whichever program is charged first, not both.

When it resets

Always available while you hold the card. Nothing to reset.

How not to lose it

  • Enroll first. The terms say enrollment is required, and purchases made before you enroll generally don’t qualify.
  • Pay with the Platinum Card. The credit only follows purchases charged to the card that carries it.
