American Express has issued charge and credit cards since 1850 and serves the UAE through americanexpress.ae. Its cards earn Membership Rewards points rather than cashback: points accrue on all spend, do not expire while the card is active, and transfer to Amex airline and hotel partners rather than redeeming at a single fixed rate. The UAE line-up sits at the premium end — the Platinum Credit Card carries an annual membership fee, twelve Priority Pass lounge visits a year, and enrolment-based monthly dining and grocery credits.
